Extraction of anthocyanin pigments from black chokeberry pomace
Martinková, Patrícia ; Zemanová, Jana (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the preparation of extract and concentrate of anthocyanin dyes from aronia moldings (Aronia melanocarpa). It also determines chemical properties important for human´s health, which are important also for further possible use of extract/concentrate as natural red food coloring. A series of extractions of dried and powdered aronia moldings was carried out in the experimental part of the thesis, aiming for the optimization the conditions of the extraction. Extracts were characterized by content of total anthocyans, content of total fenolic substances and total antioxidant activity. The best laboratory conditions for extraction were determined as follows: amount of moldings 12,5 g, composition of extraction agent ethanol:water 1:1, volume of extraction mixture 60 ml and time of the extraction 11 hours. Prepared extracts were concentrated on vacuum evaporator. It has been found that the temperature of the water bath in the vacuum evaporator can not exceed 40 °C. At higher temperatures there is significant degradation of anthocyanins. Furthemore, the content of individual anthocyanic dyes in extract and concentrate, from aronia moldings, was quantified by HPLC. The major anthocyanin, cyanidine-3-galactoside, was contained in the concentrate at 923,6 ± 8,5 mg·l-1, the other specified anthocyanin, minor cyanidine-3-glucoside, was present at a concentration of 53,5 ± 0,3 mg·l-1.
