Biological Properties and Applications of Betalains - PMC
Betalains are water-soluble pigments present in vacuoles of plants of the order Caryophyllales and in mushrooms of the genera Amanita, Hygrocybe and Hygrophorus. Betalamic acid is a constituent of all betalains. The type of betalamic acid substituent determines the …
Betalain - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Betanin forms the majority of red pigments found in red beets, also the dominant yellow pigment is vulgaxanthin. Betalains preserve their structure in the pH range 3.5–7.0, which is the typical pH in common food products; however, they are susceptible to light, oxidation, and heat.
Therapeutic Application of Betalains: A Review - PMC
Betalains are pigments primarily produced by plants of the order Caryophyllales. Because of their anti-inflammatory, cognitive impairment, anticancer and anti-hepatitis properties, betalains are useful as pharmaceutical agents and dietary supplements.
Betalains, the nature-inspired pigments, in health and diseases
Betalains are unique nitrogen-containing pigments found exclusively in families of the Caryophyllales order and some higher order fungi, where they replace anthocyanin pigments. Betalains, consisting of betacyanins and betaxanthins …
Betalains: properties, sources, applications, and stability – a review
2009年12月1日 · Betalain stability is exponentially affected by a w, which is a key factor determining the pigment susceptibility to aldimine bond cleavage (Saguy et al., 1984; Herbach et al., 2006b). The a w effect on betalain stability may be attributed to a reduced mobility of reactants or limited oxygen solubility (Delgado-Vargas et al., 2000).
Betalains Facts and Health Benefits | Nutrition
2018年12月10日 · The deep red color of beets, amaranth, bougainvillea and cacti results due to the presence of betalain pigments. The specific shades of red to purple are distinctive and dissimilar of anthocyanin pigments found in most plants.
Stabilization of betalains by encapsulation—a review - PMC
Overview and betalain properties. Betalains are hydrophilic vacuolar pigments that accumulate in the leaves, roots, stems, fruits, flowers, bracts, petioles, and seeds of plants of the order Caryophyllales.
Advances and future directions in betalain metabolic engineering
2019年5月30日 · Betalains are water-soluble, tyrosine-derived pigments produced in plants belonging to the Caryophyllales order (e.g. the Cactaceae family), where they play important roles in pollinator attraction and defense against various abiotic and biotic stress factors (Gandia-Herrero & Garcia-Carmona, 2013; Jain & Gould, 2015).
Betalain - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Betalain is a type of vacuolar pigment that is formed by the condensation of betalamic acid with imino compounds or amino acids, resulting in the production of betacyanins (violet) and betaxanthins (yellow).
Plant Betalains: Safety, Antioxidant Activity, Clinical Efficacy, …
2015年12月31日 · Betalains are accepted food additives derived from vacuoles of plants belonging to about 17 families in the order Caryophyllales. These pigments are composed of a nitrogenous core structure, betalamic acid [4-(2-oxoethylidene)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid].
