Fate of Anthocyanins through Cocoa Fermentation. Emergence of New Polyphenolic Dimers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Fresh, ripe cocoa beans from Cameroon (German cocoa/Amelonado group and ICS 40/Trinitario group) were subjected to fermentation-like incubations in acetic acid, lactic acid, or both and to natural fermentation. Two naturally fermented samples from Cuba (UF 654/Trinitario group and C 411/Criollo group) were also investigated. Both cyanidin-3-galactoside and cyanidin-3-arabinoside (found as major anthocyanins in colored beans only) were drastically degraded through fermentation, especially in small beans and in the presence of acetic acid. On the other hand, emergence of a cyanidin-rhamnose isomer was evidenced, even in Criollo beans. In addition to the recently described structures F1 and F2 [m/z = 575 in ESI(-)], three additional polyphenolic structures [F3, F4, and F5; m/z = 557 in ESI(+)] were found after fermentation, the two former ones resulting from epicatechin oxidation. Synthesis of F5 requires an interclass reaction between cyani(di)n and epicatechin, which explains its absence in fermented Criollo beans.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
