Chemical Information
FooDB NameDelphinidin
DescriptionDelphinidin, also known as delphinidol or ephdine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 7-hydroxyflavonoids. These are flavonoids that bear one hydroxyl group at the C-7 position of the flavonoid skeleton. Thus, delphinidin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Delphinidin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Delphinidin is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as bilberries, cowpea, and blackcurrants and in a lower concentration in common beans, common pea, and wheats. Delphinidin has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as brussel sprouts, fruits, horseradish tree, pepper (c. pubescens), and macadamia nuts. This could make delphinidin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
