3. Blueberry anthocyanin extraction requires professional processes:

fresh blueberry fruit---blueberry pulp---adding extract to extract---filtration---centrifugation---recycling ethanol---filtering anthocyanin extract---resin adsorption---ethanol elution---recycling ethanol---concentrating under reduced pressure---vacuum drying.

4. Blueberry anthocyanins are usually unstable. They are basically stable when pH is less than 3.0. They are also stable below 60 degrees and are sensitive to light. When combined with carbohydrates, blueberry anthocyanins increase their stability and turn into natural antioxidants. At present, blueberry anthocyanins are the most functional among all plant anthocyanins, and their application range is wider.
