Resumen

Los residuos agroindustriales constituyen un recurso sostenible y de bajo costo para la obtención de compuestos bioactivos y a su vez representan una problemática ambiental. La obtención de pectina a partir de cáscara de mango puede contribuir a una economía circular en el sector agroindustrial, mitigando el problema de su disposición final al aprovechar este subproducto. Se realizó la obtención de pectina de cáscara de mango mediante la extracción con una solución de ácido cítrico 0.1 M y en una relación sólido líquido 1:20. Para identificar el efecto de la temperatura (60, 75 y 90°C), y tiempo (30, 60 y 90 min) sobre el rendimiento, se empleó un diseño factorial 32. Se determinó que en todos los tratamientos se obtuvo pectina de alto metoxilo; de acuerdo con el modelo de regresión las condiciones óptimas de extracción son a 75°C y 90 min, con lo cual se obtuvo un rendimiento del 26.34%, para estas condiciones el grado de esterificación (GE) de la pectina extraída fue de 92.37%, y la capacidad de retención de agua (CRA) y aceite (CRAc) fueron de 1.12± 0.04 g/g y 2.07 ± 0.16 g/g respectivamente. La pectina extraída tiene potencial para ser agente espesante, gelificante y estabilizante.
