The results of the investigation of analytical characteristics of pectins from fruit Cornus mas L. of wild plants of the Republic of Crimea have been given. It was determined that the content of water-soluble pectin ranges from 0,2 to 0,3 % by weight of dry matter. It has been established that the number of esterified groups of dogwood pectin is 65,0–67,0 %, which indicates that it belongs to highly esterified pectins. It was determined that the number of free carboxyl groups in dogwood pectin i
