Anthocyanin
Research and compilation of engineer Javidi
Description:
Anthocyanin consists of two parts: anthose (plant) and cyanose (blue).
Anthocyanins are flavonoids (vitamin P) with a flavone structure that become anthocyanins when glycosidized. (Glycosidic flavonoids are anthocyanins).
-Cyanidin: the non-sugar aglycon part is called anthocyanin, which has medicinal properties. It is present in 80% of leaves, 69% in fruits, and 50% in flowers.
Anthocyanins are the most important pigments of vascular plants.
Anthocyanin is the most important natural pigment after chlorophyll.
-Anthocyanins, non-toxic, soluble in water and in various colors of red, blue, purple, etc., are found in the petals, leaves and roots of plants.
– So far, 540 anthocyanins are known.
………………………………………………
Changes in the color spectrum of anthocyanins in relation to the pH of the environment:
PH=7 (purple) -PH=8,9 (blue) -PH=10,11 (green) -PH=11,13 (yellow)
PH = 4.7 (pink) – PH less than 2 (red and crimson)
Anthocyanins are more resistant in acidic pH than in alkaline pH.

The properties of anthocyanins for the plant itself:
As an anti-sunburn – preventing insect attack (preventing the growth of some larvae) – helping plant reproduction (stimulating insects and animals) – as a substrate for browning (when cutting apple fruit) phenolase (polyphenol oxidase enzyme) When the phenols are removed from the cells, they turn into brown melanin. In this case, antibacterial properties and prevention of fruit spoilage are created.

Famous anthocyanins:
– Oligomeric procyanine (OPCs) present in oranges and blueberries
– Pleargofidin found in Iranian blueberries and cherries
-Delphinidin found in blueberry and blueberry
-Peonidin found in blue barberry, black gerbera, and gerbera.
– Malvidin found in Panerak flower and Kara Qat black
Petunidin found in bilberry, blueberry and Persian cherry
Fruits that have significant anthocyanins:
Strawberry-apple-pear-cherry-raspberry-orange-grape-fig-mango-pomegranate-red cabbage-cranberry-blueberry-potato-and…

Properties of anthocyanins in the body:
Compared to other flavonoids, they have a stronger effect in the treatment of cancer and tumors.
– They reduce the level of free fatty acids and triglycerides.
-Strengthening the walls of blood vessels and the heart
– They have an anti-inflammatory effect by affecting cox1 and cox2 enzymes.
– They are against metabolic syndrome (diabetes and obesity).
– Reduction of microbial activity
– Against stomach infection and stomach cancer
– Impact on microcurrents
– Inhibition of superoxidase dismutase enzyme (helps cell survival).
– Anti-premenstrual symptoms (pms).
Stabilizing collagen formation and helping connective tissue
– Anti-edema
-Improving vision at night and helping to treat and prevent cataracts (anti-tinopathy-regulating capillary pressure-regulating eye pressure)
Factors affecting the reduction of flavonoids and anthocyanins:
High temperature – low temperature for a long time

Deficiency of vitamin P (flavonoids):
Varicose veins-allergy-stomach ulcer-migraine-periodontal-macular degeneration-hemorrhoid-gout-asthma-Candida albicans infection-atopic dermatitis.
