Chemical composition and physicochemical properties of mango juice extracted using polygalacturonase produced by Aspergillus awamori CICC 2040 on pretreated orange peel

This study investigated the effect of combined NaOH and microwave pretreatment of orange peel on the efficacy of polygalacturonase, produced by Aspergillus awamori CICC 2040, in mango juice extraction. Mango juice extracted with polygalacturonase produced using pretreated orange peel (PUE) had a higher yield than CRE (mango juice extracted with polygalacturonase produced using untreated orange peel) and CME (mango juice extracted with commercial polygalacturonase). Significantly (p
