Abstract
Environmental pollution is one of the major issues facing all countries throughout the world. Environmental degradation is occurring and creating crises in day-to-day life due to the increasing amount of chemicals used in industries, where even the effluents processed out after treatment also contain some trace elements. Hence the extraction of enzymes using natural methods is an alternative for the production of dye in order to reduce pollution, which in turn helps to nourish and protect the environment for future generations. Hibiscus sabdariffa (L.) is a rich source of anthocyanins that is further enhanced by callus formation and accumulated by increasing the sucrose concentration. Anthocyanin pigments were extracted using acidified ethanol. The dye obtained was screened by GC–MS analysis and its dyeing process used in the textile industry. The study showed certain properties affected the coloring nature depending on the cloth used. The color of anthocyanin pigment depends on the pH maintained and also shows adaptability to varied environmental conditions.
