Note that some of the metals frequently encountered in simple organic compounds give characteristic flame colorations Na, yellow K, lilac through blue glass Ca, brick-red Ba, apple-green Cu, bright blue-green. Ag and Pb, no characteristic flame. 

The eady juice industry was largely a salvage operation. The principal source of raw material was misshapen, poorly colored, or skin blemished fmit unsuitable for the fresh, canned, or frozen fmit market. In the 1990s, raw materials are selected for suitabiUty for juice production, except for apple juice production which still uses much cull fmit (4).

When I lift my gimlet for that first taste, and admire its color—a pale crystal green, like a legendary jewel—I m reminded of Lewis Carroll s Alice and her healthy sense of adventure. When confronted with a bottle with a label that instructed her to down it, she did Alice ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast), she very soon finished it off. ... 

Another class of colored compounds is the anthocyanins. Flowers, blueberries, apples, and red cabbage get their color from anthocyanins, which are part of a group of compounds known as flavenoids. 

Room-temperature fluorescence (RTF) has been used to determine the emission characteristics of a wide variety of materials relative to the wavelengths of selected Fraunhofer lines in support of the Fraunhofer luminescence detector remote-sensing instrument. RTF techniques are now used in the compilation of excitation-emission-matrix (EEM) fluorescence "signatures" of materials. The spectral data are collected with a Perkin-Elraer MPF-44B Fluorescence Spectrometer interfaced to an Apple 11+ personal computer. EEM fluorescence data can be displayed as 3-D perspective plots, contour plots, or "color-contour" images. The integrated intensity for selected Fraunhofer lines can also be directly extracted from the EEM data rather than being collected with a separate procedure. Fluorescence, chemical, and mineralogical data will be statistically analyzed to determine the probable physical and/or chemical causes of the fluorescence.

Thousands of polyphenols from fruits (grapes, apples, etc.), vegetables (horse beans), and teas have been identified, many having good coloring properties, especially anthocyanins and some flavonoids. Well-documented reviews discuss the coloring capacities of some polyphenols including procyanidins. - Detailed presentations of anthocyanin and flavonoid properties and analysis are included in Sections 2.3, 4.3, and 6.3. The soluble proanthocyanidins of the colored horse bean Viciafaba L. seed coats were isolated and separated by solvent partition. 

French researchers provided an alternative to the tartrazine synthetic colorant (E 102), valorizing a phloridzine oxidation product (POP) generated as a by-product of the cider industry. Phloridzine is a polyphenol specific to apples and shows good antioxidant capacity. When apples are pressed to yield juice, phloridzine, oxygen, and polyphenoloxidase enzyme combine to form POP. This brilliant yellow natural colorant with nuances dependent on pH level can be incorporated easily into water-based foods such as beverages (juices, syrups) and confectionery creams because it is stable during production processes. Details about the specific formulations of these colorants are presented in Section 5.1. 

Have you ever tried to eat an unripe apple Such an apple may appear green, have hard flesh, and have almost no taste. In fact, the flesh may taste sour. However, when you eat a ripe apple, everything is different. Such an apple generally appears red, although ripe apples may be colors other than red. The flesh is softer and tastes sweet. What happened during the ripening process to cause this change Hydrocarbons provide the answer. 

Removal of Proteinaceous Clouds. With the unchanged method of Averell and Norris (1) the final colored solution of 50.0 ml. may contain as much as 20% ethyl alcohol. Many plant materials, particularly apple pulp, yield proteinaceous substances to the benzene during extraction if the aliquot of extract represents more than 40 to 50 grams of sample, these substances will be present in this final solution as a cloud of solid particles. These substances, whatever their nature, appear to be completely soluble in 60% ethyl alcohol. Thus, the authors recommend the addition of 50 ml. more of ethyl alcohol at this stage, the addition of more hydrochloric acid to maintain pH, and final dilution to 100.0 ml. with water. The resulting solution will be optically clear except for oily or waxy substances, which are removed in the next step. 

In fruit penetration studies 8 pounds of fruit were first thoroughly scrubbed with warm 10% trisodium phosphate solution and then rinsed thoroughly with distilled water. Citrus fruits, if depth of penetration into the peel was of interest, were peeled in longitudinal sections with a buttonhook peeler and the albedo or white portion was separated from the flavedo or colored portion. The separated peel was placed in pie tins lined with waxed paper and dried in a forced draft oven at 65° C. for 16 hours. The dried peel was then crushed and steeped for 48 hours in a measured volume of benzene sufficient to cover the sample. If, on the other hand, only the total amount of DDT in the peel was of interest, the fruit was halved and juiced on a power juicer. The pulp was removed, the peel sliced, and the sample dried and treated as before. Thin-skinned fruits, such as apples, pears, and avocados, were peeled with a vegetable peeler, cores or seeds were removed, and the pulp was sliced in thin slices. Pulp and peel were then dried and treated in the same way as the citrus peel. The steeping completed, the samples were filtered through Sharkskin filter paper and the volume of benzene recovered was noted.

The process of classification is typically based on systematically arranging entities on the basis of their similarities and differences. A bowl of fruit can be systematically arranged to have apples on one side and bananas on the other. Chemical elements can be systematically arranged into distinct families on the basis of their atomic structures. Classification of this sort is relatively easy and can be grounded on any number of relatively distinctive parameters or combinations of parameters, including color, size, shape, structure, taste, and so forth. We have already noted that psychiatric disorders are best characterized as open concepts. In open psychiatric concepts, overt, objective, and distinctive parameters are often less apparent, making their classification considerably more difficult.
