Pectin was extracted using organic citric acid at pH 2, and the study comprehensively evaluated its yield and solubility along with physicochemical properties—equivalent weight (EW), methoxyl (MeO) content, anhydrouronic acid (AUA) content, degree of esterification (DE), ash percentage, and pH—across the three extraction methods. The results revealed that the extraction technique significantly impacted the yield and properties of pectin. Among the methods, MAE produced the highest yield of pectin (22.38 ± 0.32 %), demonstrating its efficiency. Each extraction method offered distinct advantages, influencing both the physicochemical characteristics and solubility behavior of the pectin. Based on the MeO and DE values, all extracted pectins from carambola peel were identified as high-methoxyl pectins, making them suitable for various industrial applications. Additionally, the high AUA content indicated the purity of the extracted pectin. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was employed to distinguish the extracted pectin structurally. The spectral analysis identified functional groups within the 1800–800 cm<sup>−1</sup> range, confirming the presence of key chemical components associated with pectin’s structure. This study highlights the comparative advantages of MAE and UAE in enhancing pectin yield and purity while preserving its functional properties. These findings underscore the potential of carambola peel-derived pectin for applying in gel formation, stabilization, emulsification, and thickening of food products.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73040,"journal":{"name":"Food chemistry advances","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 101228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146023016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably, they exhibited significant antioxidant activity, driven by their Omega-3 fatty acids and polyphenol content. Among the leaves, choco demonstrated the highest levels of volatile compounds and fatty acids after cooking, enhancing its functional properties. Sensory evaluation highlighted choco-wrapped tamales as the most preferred due to their superior flavour and aroma, while banana and papatla leaves improved the firmness and adhesiveness of tamales.

These naturally occurring substances including polyphenols, flavonoids, carotenoids, and omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for enhancing human health and improving the quality, stability, and sensory appeal of food products. Conventional extraction techniques often rely on volatile, toxic solvents, raising environmental, safety, and efficiency concerns. In response, the principles of green chemistry have fostered the development of innovative solvents, most notably ionic liquids (ILs). Ionic liquids are organic salts that remain liquid at temperatures below 100 °C, characterized by their negligible vapor pressure, high thermal stability, non-flammability, and—most importantly their tunable physicochemical properties. This adjustability allows ILs to be tailored for specific extraction tasks, making them highly effective, selective, and environmentally benign alternatives to traditional organic solvents. Their application in the recovery of bioactive compounds from plant, animal, and microbial sources offers substantial improvements in yield, efficiency, and compound integrity, while reducing energy consumption and hazardous waste. The adoption of IL-based extraction technology addresses key challenges in food production, enabling cleaner processes and supporting the development of functional foods and nutraceuticals. By aligning with sustainability goals and enhancing the health profile of food products, ILs represent a transformative tool for the food industry, paving the way toward safer, greener, and more efficient production systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73040,"journal":{"name":"Food chemistry advances","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 101254"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147385213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
