Popis: | Natural anthocyanin dyes are safe for human and the environment due to their biocompatibility and rapid biodegradability. In this paper, an aqueous anthocyanin extract from grapes was used as a colouring reagent for the determination of humic acid (a cancer-promoting agent) in water and caffeine/phosphoric acid-containing caramelized soft drink. Three techniques, viz: chromametry, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV–Vis) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were employed for comparative quantifications. The results showed that the chromametry technique exhibited better sensing performance than the spectroscopic techniques in terms of the limit of detection (LOD) and % recovery. However, both chromametry and UV–Vis techniques agreed that the presence of HA could easily be detected in the soft drink at a spiked concentration of 6.4 ppm where less interference occurred. |
