The results indicated that the thermal degradation of anthocyanins followed the first-order
reaction kinetics. The temperature-dependent degradation was adequately modeled on the Arrhenius
equation. Antioxidant capacity analysis was conducted on thermally processed anthocyanin solutions
to further evaluate the effects of pH and thermal treatment on the anthocyanins. The total antioxidant
capacity of samples after thermal treatments under various pHs was found to remain at a similar level
