When true colors still shine through: LC-MS-based metabolomics study of fabrics dyed with European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) berries after accelerated light ageing

Key Points

• Fabrics dyed with rhamnus cathartica berries exhibit color shifts after light ageing, highlighting dye stability issues.
• The study found notable metabolomic alterations using LC-MS analysis post-exposure to simulated light conditions.
• Observation included fabrics subjected to accelerated light ageing, measuring color and metabolite changes over time.
• These findings indicate the need for further research on dye stability and the long-term effects of environmental aging.
