TLDR
In this paper, the mechanisms and kinetics of anthocyanin degradation during heat treatment are investigated based on current findings, which can have a dramatic impact on colour quality and may also affect nutritional properties.
Abstract
Anthocyanins are the most abundant flavonoid constituents of fruits and vegetables. The conjugated bonds in their structures, which absorb light at about 500 nm, are the basis for the red, blue and purple colours of fruits, vegetables and their products. Anthocyanin pigments readily degrade during thermal processing which can have a dramatic impact on colour quality and may also affect nutritional properties. This review attempts to summarize some important aspects of anthocyanin degradation during thermal processing. Conclusions regarding the mechanisms and kinetics of anthocyanin degradation during heat treatment are postulated based on current findings.
