ABSTRACT There is considerable interest in utilization of natural pigment as food colorants, particularly from raw materials in adequate supply, such as wine grape pomace. The rate and degree of extraction of anthocyanins from grape pomace depends upon a number of factors; this research concerned two: solvent (ethanol, methanol, water), and acid (HCl, citric, tartaric, formic, acetic, propionic). Methanol was the best extractant being 20% more effective than ethanol and 73% more effective than water. HCl was most effective with ethanol, but is also very corrosive. Of the organic acids, citric was most effective with methanol and acetic acid with water.
Métivier et al. (1980) studied this question.
