The invention provides a natural
carthamin yellow-beta-
cyclodextrin inclusion compound with high stability and a preparation method of the natural
carthamin yellow-beta-
cyclodextrin inclusion compound, and belongs to the technical field of stable modification of natural pigments. The natural
carthamin yellow-beta-
cyclodextrin inclusion compound comprises beta-cyclodextrin and natural carthamin yellow, wherein the molecular ratio of the beta-cyclodextrin to the natural carthamin yellow is 1: 1. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving beta-cyclodextrin in water to form a beta-cyclodextrin saturated solution, adding natural carthamin yellow into the beta-cyclodextrin saturated solution, stirring for 1 hour at the temperature of 50 DEG C, and freeze-
drying to obtain the natural carthamin yellow-beta-cyclodextrin. According to the natural
safflower yellow-beta-cyclodextrin inclusion compound, beta-cyclodextrin serves as a subject, natural
safflower yellow serves as an object, and the inclusion compound with the low
pigment loss rate and the high light stability is successfully prepared by optimizing three key process parameters including the subject-object molecular ratio, the stirring temperature and the stirring time. The protection effect on the natural carthamin yellow is improved.
