Anthocyanins (ANCs) are water-soluble pigments with antioxidant properties, offering potential as alternatives to synthetic food colorants. However, their stability is compromised by factors such as pH, temperature, and light exposure. Previous research demonstrated improved pH stability in black grape ANCs through cobalt ion (Co) complexation.

Anthocyanins (ANCs) are water-soluble pigments that are useful as nutraceuticals due to their health benefits. This study was performed to evaluate the storage stability of purified and crude red grape ANCs in Raha Sweet (RS) during storage and to evaluate its sensory properties. ANCs were extracted from red grape pomace and purified with a macroporous resin.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of cobalt complexation on the spectral properties of anthocyanins (AC) extracted from black grape pomace (Black Magic) and the effect of complexation on the pH stability of AC during storage. Initially, cobalt acetate tetrahydrate aqueous solution was complexed with AC crude extract and diluted separately in buffer solutions with different pH (3.5, 4.
