720 Part 6: Health/Functional Foodspigments account for about 30% of the market. It is predicted that
the market share of natural pigments will continue to grow and
surpass that of synthetic colors due to the increasing consumer
concerns with the latter.
Thus, what needs to be done is more research to address
the disadvantages with the commercial production and use of
natural food pigments. Sources of the major food colors (red,
blue, and yellow) must be identified; procedures to recover them
efficiently and in purer and more stable forms, such as enzyme-
assisted treatments (Kim et al. 2005) need to be developed; and
treatments and/or conditions to stabilize them such as use in
combination with antioxidants need to be exploited.REFERENCES
