markers, many did not know that markers have limitations. Usually, it is a problem for students,
artists and calligraphers to supply ink for the markers they are using.

and chemical solvents. These kinds of materials are hazardous especially to the health of the
As of today, markers are composed of toxic chemicals. Toluene and xylene are toxic
substances that were commonly used as solvents but there is still a number of manufacturers who
produces markers with these substances. Those chemicals can cause irritation to the skin and

staining of the skin or tongue, which may last for several days. Ink can also cause mild stomach
upset.
Statement of the Problem
This study will be conducted to produce a non-toxic and more affordable marker made from
the anthocyanin of red gumamela. This study attempted to determine the effectiveness of Red
Anthocyanin of Red Gumamela (Hibiscus rosa-sinesis) Extract as Red Ink for Markers
Hypotheses
There is no significant difference between the components of marker ink from the ink
made from anthocyanin of red gumamela and compared to commercial marker ink in terms of
There is no significant difference between the production of the materials of marker ink from the
ink made from the anthocyanin of red gumamela and compared to commercial marker ink in

This study would be very beneficial to the users of markers. This study provides many
advantages to them, such as they would have a more natural and cheaper way of having an ink

This study of making Red Anthocyanin of Gumamela as Red Ink for Markers is limited
only on the use of Red Anthocyanin. For the study, the researchers just emptied the unused pens
or the pens that won’t function well. This also aimed to test the effectiveness of Red
Anthocyanin of Gumamela extract as an ingredient to produce a marker ink. This study limits its
coverage on the discussion of Anthocyanin of Gumamela marker ink production and the impact
of the marker ink in the environment and to the people. The study focused on testing its
As we conduct this study, it has their pros and cons. marker inks are known to contain
