  • Extracting anthocyanins has been on my todo-list for a while now and I am happy to say I was finally able to make these beautiful colors myself. This extraction method can easily be done at home, however getting a full pH spectrum to test on was the most dangerous part. For my test tubes, I started with an acidic solution of HCL then slowly nuetralized it and continued to basic solutions.

    Sir.. I have a question.... a technical one... your heating the beaker (contains water and red cabbage) .... what makes you think... there will be.. no accidents.... cuz heating it makes it boil... gaseous molecule have more space.... which leads to the accidents... and is it okay???? To heat in open medium????

      I guess I don’t understand the question very well here. However, if you are asking if this is a project that no accidents can happen. The answer is always no. In every project, safety is and should always be top priority.

    Could you extract it from purple stalks of cannabis plants and use it to test ph?

    • @garrettprosser7336
      @garrettprosser7336 Před 2 lety +1

      Because that would save people millions if it yielded a decent amount by weight

    • @PrestonImpx
      @PrestonImpx  Před 2 lety

      Potentially. Though there are so many compounds in cannabis I can only imagine you would bring over some of the other compounds as well. Pretty much anything that is water soluble

      @@PrestonImpx there's a boiling point for everything im sure you could short path distil it off perhaps

    What are their purpose in plants

    • @PrestonImpx
      @PrestonImpx  Před 2 lety

      sorry for the late reply here. Anthocyanins in plants are mainly used to protect against some invironmental plants, but they also attract insects or other seed distributors to help them reproduce.

    Great video - for an amateur 😂

    0:40 Every picture is cut out except the hemp leaf. Arranging all of this in a circle and having hemp in the middle would have looked aesthetically more pleasing. Also blurring the background when showing something in the foreground just looks cleaner.
    0:46 to 0:50 Just B-Roll. If you had left the pictures up and cut at 0:50 to your next footage it would have been smoother.
    1:00 "For Time Sake" -> Don't need to say that. Also, think about your editing while you are writing your script. "We need a cabbage (shows cabbage) cut of course (jumps to cut cabbage)..." Also adding sound effects to all of this could improve the experience.
    03:50 Either cover the whole screen or cut out the exact parts your want as you did with the fruits. If you want to keep it like this you still would need to blur the background to make it easier to look at.
