rocus sativus L. ) It is a pigment contained in stigmas of flowers, such as pickles, Japanese sweets, chestnuts,
It is used for coloring rice cakes.

のである。The main component of gardenia pigment is crocin, and a small amount of crocetin is contained as the other component. When the color tones of crocin and crocetin are compared, crocetin exhibits a brighter and clearer yellow color than crocin, in other words, it has a bluish yellow color, and is highly useful when used in foods.

なかった。When crocin is hydrolyzed, gentiobiose existing in the structure is released and crocetin is produced. However, alkali such as sodium hydroxide is usually used for hydrolysis, which is dangerous for work. Of course, it was not good for occupational health.
