  • What Pigments Are in Plants?
    BUILD YOUR FUTURE! ANYANG BEST COMPLETE MACHINERY ENGINEERING CO.,LTD WHAT PIGMENTS ARE IN PLANTS? Pigments Pigments are chemical compounds responsible for color in a range of living substances and in the inorganic world. Pigments absorb some of the light they receive, and so reflect only certain wavelengths of visible light. This makes them appear "colorful.” Cave paintings by early man show the early use of pigments, in a limited range from straw color to reddish brown and black. These colors occurred naturally in charcoals, and in mineral oxides such as chalk and ochre. The WebExhibit on Pigments has more information on these early painting palettes. Many early artists used natural pigments, but nowadays they have been replaced by cheaper and less toxic synthetic pigments. Biological Pigments Pigments are responsible for many of the beautiful colors we see in the plant world. Dyes have often been made from both animal sources and plant extracts . Some of the pigments found in animals have also recently been found in plants.

Accepted 5 May, 2011 The content of flavonoids and phenolic acids in the extract of bamboo leaves (EBL) was determined using near-infrared spectroscopy. Optimal partial least squares models and least squares-support vector machine models were developed to enable rapid and non-destructive validation based on EBL contents as determined by photocolorimetric methods and high performance liquid chromatography. The least squares-support vector machine models performed slightly better than the partial least squares models. For least squares-support vector machine models, the correlation coefficients (R) and root mean square errors (RMSE) of calibration and validation were R(cal)= 0.9998, RMSE(cal)= 0.05, R(val)= 0.9418 and RMSE(val)= 3.91 for total flavonoids (TF) and R(cal)= 0.9778, RMSE(cal)= 2.49, R(val)= 0.9535, and RMSE(val)= 3.61 for total phenolic acids (TP).

  • Ascorbic Acid and Pectin in Different Sizes and Parts of Citric Fruits
    Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos ISSN 0101-2061 Ascorbic acid and pectin in different sizes and parts of citric fruits Ácido ascórbico e pectina em diferentes partes de frutas cítricas de vários tamanhos Original Larissa Akemi YWassaKI1, Solange Guidolin Canniatti-BRAZaca2* Abstract Citric fruits - in natura, as frozen pulp or even as juice - are one of the most important Brazilian exportation products. They are a source of ascorbic acid – a potent antioxidant, and pectin, which is used in the food industry and is an important dietary fiber. This project aims to quantify ascorbic acid and pectin contents in citric fruits, commercial oranges and tangerines, comparing them in sizes and varieties. Ascorbic acid amount was measured in juice comparing sizes, varieties and storage conditions, using a tritimetric method with 2.6-dichlorobenzenoindophenol indicator. Total and soluble pectin in each part of the fruits (peel, albedo, pulp and juice) were quantified using the polygalacturonic acid as a standard. Differences were found between the sizes. The highest content of vitamin C was found in the oranges (Bahia variety). Comparing the storage temperatures, the biggest loss was at room temperature. Albedo presented the highest content of pectin in all fruits. In juice, the total and soluble pectin contents increased as fruits size decreased. Oranges and tangerines differed in the amount of pectin. Keywords: orange; tangerine; pectin; ascorbic acid; composition; size. Resumo Os produtos de frutas cítricas são de grande importância para as exportações do Brasil in natura, polpa congelada e ainda na forma de suco. São fonte de ácido ascórbico, potente antioxidante, e pectina, que é utilizada na indústria e também é importante fibra alimentar.
