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).
