- Abstract
The concentration of cyanidin-3-galactoside, cyanidin-3-arabinoside, and an unidentified cyanidin arabinoside in the skin of Starkrimson apples stored unpackaged, under in-package modified atmosphere and in heat shrinkable wrap were determined at 7, 23, and 30 weeks storage. Carbon dioxide levels of higher than 73% in in-packaged modified atmosphere severely destablized the three anthocyanins. The unidentified cyanidin arabinoside was the most stable anthocyanin in the skin of Starkrimson apples. Cyanidin-3-galactoside was more stable in the skin of unpackaged apples than shrink-wrapped apples.
