added as exogenous enzyme in fruit and vegetable processing, used to increase the yield during extraction, to clarify and concentrate fruit juices, for gelation of fruit, and to modify texture and rheology of fruit and vegetable based products
one of the most important enzymes in the industrialization and preservation of fruits, juices or other industrial products that involve the presence or absence of intact pectin
used for various applications in fruit processing e.g. texture improvement of fruit pieces, juice extraction, concentration and clarification of fruit juices
PME has a higher thermal resistance than the bacteria and yeasts existing in orange juice, therefore its inactivation is used as a parameter to define the time/temperature combination of the thermal process of pasteurisation of orange juice, which is necessary to prevent spoilage, overview

PME (0.12% (v/v)) and Ca2+ (0.5% (w/w)) in osmotic sugar solutions positively affect the relative hardness of dehydrated strawberry fruits, which is ascribed to the effect of PME and Ca2+ on the cell wall strength of the tissue (no cell wall damage and tissue particle alterations are observed upon dehydration)

pectin methylesterase (PME) is a ubiquitous cell wall enzyme, which de-esterifies and modifies pectins for food applications. The papaya PME can be potentially utilized to modify pectin functionality at elevated temperature
study of kinetic characterization, thermal stability and synergistic effect of temperature and pH for peroxidase (POD) and pectin methylesterase (PME) in tomato puree. Inactivation of both enzymes is very important, since these enzymes can have very negative effects on the color, odor, flavor and texture of juices and vegetable beverages during storage. The browning and loss of stability in juices and vegetable beverages, such as tomato puree, can be controlled by applying temperature and pH combinations capable of inactivating these enzymes in a total or partial way, but while respecting the limits organoleptic and legal for juices and vegetable beverages
