On Pectin Methyl-esterification: Implications for In vitro and In vivo Viscoelasticity
J.L. Kaplan, T.A. Torode, F. Bou Daher, S.A. Braybrook
This study develops an AFM-based viscoelastic micro-indentation protocol to analyze pectin's mechanical properties in vitro and in vivo, revealing non-linear relationships between methyl-esterification and viscoelastic behavior.
