Abstract
The application of blueberry anthocyanins (ANs) was limited due to their low in-process stability and bioavailability. In our study, the stability and antioxidant capacity of ANs before and after adding bovine serum albumin (BSA) were examined by simulating various processing, storage (light, sucrose, and vitamin C (Vc)), and in vitro simulated digestion parameters. For this purpose, pH-differential method, high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS), peroxyl scavenging capacity assay, and cellular antioxidant assay were conducted. BSA at different concentrations, specifically at 0.15 mg/mL, inhibited the degradation of ANs and the loss of antioxidant capacity. The results suggest that BSA has a positive effect on ANs.
