Radish anthocyanin extract has potential as a natural colorant because of
its pigment stability and attractive red hue. Presence of undesirable aroma
compounds could limit its applications in foods. The pungent principle of
radish, 4-methylthio-3-butenyl isothiocyanate (MTBI), is produced
enzymatically upon cell injury from its glucosinolate precursor, 4-methylthio-3-butenyl glucosinolate (MTBG),...
Pelargonidin 3-glucoside (pgd 3-glu), pelargonidin 3-sophoroside (pgd 3-soph),
and pelargonidin 3-sophoroside 5-glucoside acylated with cinnamic and malonic acids
(acyl-pgd 3-soph 5-glu) were extracted from strawberries (Fragaria anannassa cv,
Totem), nasturtium flowers (Tropaeolum majus), and radish peel (Raphanus sativus L.
cv, fuego), respectively. Their stability was studied in natural and model...
Red radish (Raphanus sativus L.) anthocyanins were extracted from liquid
nitrogen powdered epidermal tissue using acetone and chloroform and isolated using
C-18 resin. Chemical structure and conformation of major pigments were elucidated
by 1-D and 2-D NMR, Mass Spectroscopy, HPLC, and spectral analyses. Two novel
di-acylated anthocyanins, pelargonidin 3-0-[2-0-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-(6-0- trans-p-coumaroyl-...
Chipping varieties and model systems were used to determine the role of potato
constituents on chip color. Composition was evaluated by HPLC and chip color
measured using a ColorQuest colorimeter. Reducing sugar (RS) content did not
completely explain color quality when present in low concentrations (<60 mg/lOOg).
Levels of ascorbic...
Fresh ripe, cantaloupes were processed into juice and
juice concentrate. Processing trials were conducted on
fresh and frozen fruits with and without rind. The effects
of maceration enzymes and fining agents on yield and quality
were investigated. Compositional measurement included
°Brix, pH, titratable acidity, formol values, ascorbic acid
content, total...
Red radish anthocyanin extract (RAE) was investigated for coloring brined
cherries as an alternative to FD&C Red No. 40. Red radish (Raphanus sativus L.)
anthocyanins were extracted from liquid nitrogen powdered epidermal tissue using
acetone, partitioned with chloroform, and isolated using C-18 resin. The monomeric
anthocyanin content was determined by...
Different concentrations of various browning inhibitors and a firming agent were evaluated to prevent browning and softening of Bartlett, Bosc and Anjou pear slices during cold storage at 2-4°C. Browning inhibition effect of Semperfresh, Snow Fresh and cysteine were compared with that of 4-hexylresorcinol (4-HR). The effect of ripeness on...
