Malvidin-3-O-rutinoside Analysis Service

Malvidin-3-O-rutinoside is a naturally occurring anthocyanin compound found in plants, predominantly in Malvaceae plants and some others. As an anthocyanin, malvidin-3-O-rutinoside is crucial for the pigmentation in plants, imparting bright red, purple, or blue hues to flowers, fruits, and leaves. Its molecular formula is C₂₉H₃₅O₁₆⁺. Chemically, it comprises an anthocyanin molecule (Malvidin) bonded to a rutinoside (a disaccharide of glucose and rhamnose). It exhibits various biological activities and benefits.

The extraction of malvidin-3-O-rutinoside generally involves solvent extraction to separate the anthocyanin compounds from plant tissues, followed by chromatographic purification. Modern techniques such as ultrasonic extraction and microwave-assisted extraction are also employed to enhance extraction efficiency and purity.
