Word History

Etymology

borrowed from German, from Greek antho- antho- entry 1 + xanth- (in xánthisma "something dyed yellow," derivative, with -ma, resultative noun suffix, of xanthízein "to dye yellow or brown," derivative, with -izein -ize, of xanthós "yellow") + German -in -in entry 1

Note: Anthoxanthin was coined by the German pharmacist Ludwig Clamor Marquart (1804-81), in Die Farben der Blüthen (Bonn, 1835), p. 66: Anthoxanthin (von [Greek letters] ánthos Blume, und [Greek letters] xánthisma gelbe Farbe) ist der Farbestoff aller gelben Blumen ("Anthoxanthin (from ánthos flower, and xánthisma yellow color) is the pigment of all yellow flowers"). Cf.anthocyanin
