Abstract
A process for preparing pectin which comprises subjecting a plant tissue containing pectic substances to the action of a microorganism which belongs to the genus Bacillus and possesses an activity liberating pectin from a plant tissue but substantially does not possess an activity of decomposing pectin, or a culture broth or processed material thereof to liberate pectin from said plant tissue and recovering the pectin, which allows to obtain readily a pectin of high molecular weight in high yield.
