Color and Chemical Stability of a Variety of Anthocyanins and Ascorbic Acid in Solution and Powder Forms
2013
West, Megan E. | Mauer, Lisa J.
The color and chemical stabilities of six anthocyanins, including cyanidin 3-glucoside, highly purified and present in semipurified extracts (also containing other anthocyanins) from grape pomace, purple corn, and black rice, were determined in combination with ascorbic acid in solutions at differing pH values (3.0 and 4.0) and temperatures (6–40 °C) and lyophilized powders at different relative humidities (43–98% RH). Color and chemical changes were analyzed using CIELAB measurements and HPLC, respectively. In liquids, stability was inversely related to increasing pH and temperature; for powders, stability was inversely related to RH. The mutual destruction of anthocyanins and ascorbic acid in solution was confirmed, with unexpected new findings showing no significant stabilizing/destabilizing effect based upon anthocyanin structure, including differing flavylium core (three types) and type of acylation (two aliphatic, one cinnamic acid), or final extract purity.
