This engineering-focused study evaluates pulsed electric field (PEF)-assisted, solvent-free modification of pectin from sugar beet pulp. The authors report that degree of esterification increased with greater PEF intensity and energy input, with supporting evidence from FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, and NMR. Modified…
