Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the extraction of anthocyanins from jambolan (Syzygium cumini) fruit using choline chloride-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as co-solvents in ethanolic systems. The extraction was performed using ethanol and choline chloride-based DESs with xylitol (ChX-DES) and glycerol (ChG-DES). The highest anthocyanin extraction was achieved using ethanol with 5% DES, resulting in 20.40 to 23.36 mg M3G/ 100 g. Increased temperature favored the extraction, particularly at 70 °C for 5% ChG-DES, yielding 28.92 mg M3G/100 g. The ethanol containing 5% ChG-DES extract exhibited higher color intensity, suggesting its potential as a natural colorant. Additionally, DES-containing extracts demonstrated higher antioxidant capacity and α-amylase and amyloglucosidase inhibition. Cytotoxicity in the HaCaT cell revealed no toxicity up to 12.5 mg/mL. Finally, the color stability of yogurts enriched with the ChG-DES extract was maintained during storage, highlighting the potential of DESs for extracting and applying anthocyanins as natural colorants and functional agents in foods.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
