Alginate‐Based Encapsulation of Phenolic Compounds: Insights Into Gastrointestinal Stability, Release Behavior, and Bioaccessibility

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Alginate‐based encapsulation systems exhibit pH‐responsive behavior during gastrointestinal digestion. Calcium‐alginate matrices limit phenolic release under gastric conditions by forming a compact alginic acid barrier, while intestinal conditions promote matrix swelling and controlled release.

Rapid Genetic Stabilisation of Transgenic and Edited Wheat Through Transformation of Immature Haploid Embryos

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2143-2152, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Wheat is one of the globally important food crops, but its genetically modified application lags behind other staple crops due to its complex genome and low transformation efficiency. Normally, traditional transgenic and gene‐edited wheat requires multiple selfing generations for obtaining homozygous lines, which delayed the development of ...

Improvement of betanin biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by metabolic engineering

Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2023
Betanin is a member of natural pigment betacyanins family and has extensive application in the food industry as an important natural red food colorant. Its relatively inefficient production in nature however hampers access to this phytochemicals through ...

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

A modifiedAmaranthus betacyanin test for cytokinin bioassay

Biologia Plantarum, 1975
A modified procedure for the extraction of betacyanin fromAmaranthus seedlings is described. Application of this modification increased the absorbance of cytokinin-treatedAmaranthus explants in most cases. The modifiedAmaranthus test is compared with the soybean callus test in the bioassay of kinetin, 6-benzylaminopurine, and 6(δ,δ-dimethylallyl ...

Structural Study on Hypochlorous Acid-Mediated Chlorination of Betanin and Its Decarboxylated Derivatives from an Anti-Inflammatory Beta vulgaris L. Extract

Molecules, 2020
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) produced by neutrophils is a part of the natural innate immune response system in the human body, but excessive levels of HOCl can ultimately be detrimental to health. Recent reports suggest that betacyanin plant pigments can act

Pollinator, herbivore, and climatic selective pressures differ across a floral color transition zone

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Spatial and temporal variations in climate and ecological interactions may underlie the origin and maintenance of floral color polymorphisms across a species range. Betalains are nitrogen‐containing, phylogenetically restricted pigments that, like the widespread and well‐studied anthocyanins and carotenoids, may attract pollinators ...

Betalain synthesis in alfalfa impacts fiber digestion and enteric methane production

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Betalain pigments, betacyanins, and betaxanthins are widely used as coloring agents as well as in pharmaceutical and functional foods. However, significant betacyanin production occurs in only a few species of plants, which limits their wider application.
