Determination of Anthocyanins of Purple Carrot Two Cultivars

摘要

Two cultivars of purple carrot 'Pupur' and 'Mayami shokoladnaya" were investigated. Anthocyanins of both cultivars was qualitatively the same - main compound was cyanidin-3-feruloylhexosyl-pentosyl-hexodide, mole fraction of the anthocyanin was approximately 72% of the overall anthocyanin content of carrot roots of cv. "Purpur" (I) and only 49% in in carrot roots of cv. "Mayami shokoladnaya" (II). Cyanidin-3-pentosyl-hexoside (33.8%) was found in carrot roots of (II) and only 4 - 18% in carrot roots of (I). The overall accumulation of anthocyanins was fond in roots of carrots was 0.111 and 0.232 g per 100 g FW for cultivars I and II, respectively.
