Studies on the Microwave Extraction of Edible Amaranth Red Pigment and Its Stability

Wang Huaizong

Abstract

This paper chose edible amaranth as raw materials.Microwave extraction technology was applied to the research on natural pigment extraction from edible amaranth.Then the paper studied the stability of this red pigment.Conclusion indicated that the routine was reasonable and practical.Oxidants and reducer could reduce the stability the red pigment,but common food additives and several metal ions had little effect on it.
