Suggestions: The study in future should be commenced using a greater amount of dried peel so that more physicochemical properties like ash content, jelly grade, setting time and acetyl value could be studied. As there are no much studies been
reported for pectin extraction using Kaffir lime, this study in future could serve as a preliminary study to evaluate Kaffir lime peels’ capacity for pectin source. Faravesh et al.,and Pagan et al., had reported that prolonged extraction time will lead to
higher pectin quality under a constant pH and temperature. Therefore, it could be assumed that extraction time of 120 minutes favoured the extraction of high-quality pectin and would be the most suitable extraction time for obtaining pectin with high quality.
