Pigment‐Macromolecule Complexes Isolation from Sea Urchin Biomineral Waste for Coloring Materials
Chemistry–Methods, EarlyView.A methodology has been developed to extract the colored organic fraction occluded within seashell biomineral waste. Applied to sea urchin skeletons, free polyhydroxylated naphthoquinone (PHNQ) pigments and PHNQ‐macromolecule complexes are isolated. These complexes show superior pH stability in purple hues compared to free PHNQ, which shifts from red to
