Rheological and Physical Properties of Mucilage Hydrogels from Cladodes of <i>Opuntia ficus-indica</i>: Comparative Study with Pectin

The physical and rheological properties of mucilage hydrogels derived from the cladodes of <i>Opuntia ficus-indica</i> (L. Mill) were compared with those of commercial pectin for potential applications in the food industry. All hydrogels—formulated by incorporating sucrose and either cal...
