Flowering tea has become a popular beverage consumed across the world. Anthocyanins content is considered as an important quality index of flowering tea. The feasibility of using near infrared (NIR) spectra at the wavelength range of 10,000-4000 cm(-1) for rapid and nondestructive determination of total anthocyanins content in flowering tea was investigated. Ant colony optimization interval partial least squares (ACO-iPLS) and Genetic algorithm interval partial least squares (GA-iPLS) were used to develop calibration models for total anthocyanins content. Two characteristic wavelength regions (4590-4783, 5770-5,963 cm(-1)), which corresponding to the ultraviolet/visible absorption bands of anthocyanins, were selected by ACO-iPLS. The optimal ACO-iPLS model for total anthocyanins content (R=0.9856, RMSECV=0.1,198 mg/g) had better performance than full-spectrum PLS, iPLS, and GA-iPLS models. It could be concluded that NIR spectroscopy has significant potential in the nondestructive determination of total anthocyanins content in flowering tea.

Background: The antioxidant capacity of anthocyanins (AC) rapidly degrades during storage, highlighting the need for their stabilization. The conformational properties and high proline content of sodium caseinate (NaCAS), combined with the formation of NaCAS microgels in the presence of tara gum (TG) and acid gelation, suggest its potential as an effective stabilizing or encapsulating agent of AC.

Results: Spectrofluorimetric results suggest the formation of a complex between NaCAS and AC.
