ANTHOCYANINS FROM ROSE MAIZE (Zea mays L.) GRAINS

Here we present the anthocyanin composition of grains of rose corn (Zea mays L.). Extraction was performed using methanol:water:HCl in an ultrasound bath for 20min. Anthocyanins were isolated from maize using the combination of column chromatography and HPTLC plates, whereas HPLC-UV/Vis and HPLC-MS...

Sumario:Here we present the anthocyanin composition of grains of rose corn (Zea mays L.). Extraction was performed using methanol:water:HCl in an ultrasound bath for 20min. Anthocyanins were isolated from maize using the combination of column chromatography and HPTLC plates, whereas HPLC-UV/Vis and HPLC-MS were used for analysis and identification. Compounds found include the glycosides Cyanidin, Peonidin, and Pelargonidin, while HPLC profile revealed that the most abundant anthocyanin was Cyanidin-3-(6-malonyl-glucoside), a malonic derivative of Cyanidin. The results increase available data regarding the presence of these compounds in varieties of pigmented corn grains, and thus help to promote the consumption of these varieties for their beneficial health effects.
