Anthocyanin binds pectic fractions at pH 2, 3.6 and 4.5, with least binding at pH 4.5.
Anthocyanin binds water soluble pectin the least.
Anthocyanin binds chelator soluble pectin 2 times greater at pH 2 and 3.6 than pH 4.5.
At pH 4.5, anthocyanin binds alkali soluble pectin more than other pectic fractions.
Binding mechanisms may be ionic interaction and anthocyanin intermolecular stacking.
