摘要：Anthocyanin is a water-soluble pigment existing in plants, and has various healthbenefits to humans. As far as that goes, the number and location of the hydroxylgroups of the parent nucleus have significant effects on the anthocyanin activities.This review summarizes anthocyanin content in fruits, the importance ofanthocyanin in relation to human health, some aspects of anthocyaninbiochemistry and their bioavailability, the distribution in some fruits, thebiosynthetic pathway, different extraction, separation and purification methods,and also identification methods. Beneficial effects of anthocyanin pigments arereported in the scientific literature and these compounds are nowadays recognisedas potentially therapeutic. The lack of antioxidant defense mechanisms in humansis associated with the cardiovascular and coronary artery diseases, cancer anddiabetes, besides others.
