Abstract: In order to find types and difference of anthocyanins in the peel and pulp of pomegranate, a high performance liquid chromatography with a photodiode array detector (HPLC-PAD) and HPLC electrospray ionization multiple mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MSn) methods were employed for qualitative and quantitative analysis of anthocyanins. The results showed that: 10 anthocyanins were detected at 525 nm from 11 different origins of the ornamental or edible pomegranate peel and pulp, Delphinidin 3-pentoside and Peonidin -3-hexoside were first detected from pomegranate. It was not relativity in contents of anthocyanins in peel and pulp, and anthocyanins were not the same. The inspection found in several kinds of materials, anthocyanins contents in pulp of ornamental pomegranate were higher than in peel, and in peel of edible varieties were higher than in pulp.
