Natural Food Colorant Obtained fromWild Berberis vulgaris L. by Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction: Optimization and Characterization

In this study, a novel natural food colorant based on anthocyanins was developed from wild barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) fruits using ultrasound-assisted extraction, which was optimized through RSM. Four extraction variables (ultrasound power, time, S/L ratio, and extraction solvent pH) were evalu...
