Color Properties and Antioxidant Capacity of Purple Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas L) Anthocyanin Co-pigmented with Green Tea Extract | Chapter 7 | Current Advances in Chemistry and Biochemistry Vol. 2

The color properties and antioxidant potential of anthocyanin co-pigmented purple sweet potato with green tea extract have been investigated. Green tea extract with varying polyphenol concentrations (2.5 percent; 5 percent; 7.5 percent; 10 percent b/v) was used for the co-pigmentation process. Co-pigmentation with green tea extract of purple sweet potato anthocyanin could increase the color intensity observed through the hyperchromic effects and bathochromic changes. Using 5% of the polyphenol concentration, where the bathochromic changes ( λmax) were 4 nm and the hyperchromic effects ( A) were 0.565, the co-pigmentation was optimum. The color observed with the CIELAB method showed that the lightness (L*) value was reduced by co-pigmentation and the a* value was increased. The outcome of the assessment of antioxidant ability showed that the antioxidant capacity of purple sweet potato anthocyanin co-pigmented with green tea extract is higher than without co-pigment. In addition to increased color strength, antioxidant potential may also be increased by co-pigmentation of the purple sweet potato anthocyanin with green tea extract. This co-pigmentation has been developed prospectively in the manufacture of purple sweet potato anthocyanin with an attractive color and high antioxidant ability.
