Changes of anthocyanin, vitamin C content and antioxidant activities of purple cabbage pickle during fermentation process

Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 12

Abstract

Pickle was made using the purple cabbage as raw material to ferment, and the changes of anthocyanin, vitamin C content and antioxidant activities of purple cabbage pickle during fermentation process were investigated. The results showed that with the extension of fermentation time, anthocyanin content decreased, and vitamin C content first increased and then decreased. With regard to antioxidant activity, DPPH radical scavenging ability and reducing power decreased, but Fe2+ chelating activity increased with fermentation time extention. From the nutrition perspective, it was suggested that purple cabbage pickle should be eaten as early as possible.
