Description
Delphinidin (chloride) is an anthocyanidin, a natural plant pigment which serves as the precursor of certain anthocyanins that provide the blue-
red colors of flowers, fruits, and red wine. Delphinidin induces the release of nitric oxide by vascular endothelium, causing vasorelaxation. It also inhibits signaling through epithelial growth factor receptors, suppressing the expression of estrogen receptor α and inducing both apoptosis and autophagy at a dose of 1-
40 μM. Delphinidin also inhibits the histone acetyltransferase activities of p300/CBP (IC
50 = ~ 30 μM).
Chemical Properties
Soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO, derived from rhododendron and raspberry.
Uses
Delphinidin Chloride is an anthocyanidin; antioxidant. Delphinidin Chloride is a pigment found in grapes, cranberries, and pomegranates.
Definition
ChEBI: Delphinidin chloride is an anthocyanidin chloride that has delphinidin as the cationic counterpart. It contains a delphinidin.
Biotechnological Production
Methods for extracting delphinidin chloride from plants. Commonly used extraction methods include solvent extraction, ultrasonic extraction, and microwave-assisted extraction. Among these, solvent extraction is the most commonly used method, which utilizes organic solvents to extract delphinidin chloride from plants, followed by concentration and drying steps to obtain the pure product.
