Description
Remarque sur l'analyse
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the change in anthocyanins levels in wild blueberries as a function of berry development. The delphinidin, putinidin, peonidin, and malvinidin base-modified components exhibited a dramatic increase in abundance as a function of berry development. The cyanidin base-modified components exhibited a much lower increase in abundance as a function of berry development, it is uncertain the significance of the rate increase. Chlorogenic acid exhibited a continuous decrease in abundance as a function of berry development. Overall, the combination of UV/Vis detection along with accurate mass TOF enabled a effective method of identification of anthocyanins from blueberry extracts. The Ascentis Express column provided rapid, sensitive detection and rugged operation.

Berries (1.0 g) were added to 1.0 mL of 1% (v/v) formic acid in methanol. Samples were crushed in the solvent mixture and extracted (refrigerated) for 2 hours. A portion of the extracted sample was removed, centrifuged and the supernatant was collected for HPLC analysis.
