What is the actual chemical component for an anthocyanin (assume a cyanidin structure), and a carotenoid (assume a lutein structure), and indicate what is the common feature of these indicators that could act as an acid or base. (While the structures are complicated molecules, compare with acetic acid, CH3COOH, a weak acid).
Consider the following data that was collected for a protein that contain 0.76 % tryptophan amino acids by weight (Molecular weight of tryptophan amino acids is 204 g/mol).
