Betalains of Celosia argentea

Phytochemistry, 2001
The betalains of yellow, orange and red inflorescences of common cockscomb (Celosia argentea var. cristata) were compared and proved to be qualitatively identical to those of feathered amaranth (Celosia argentea var. plumosa). In addition to the known compounds amaranthin and betalamic acid, the structures of three yellow pigments were elucidated to be

Pharmacological potentials of betalains

Journal of Complementary and Integrative Medicine, 2018
Abstract Betalains are water soluble plant pigments in plants of the order Caryophyllales, which are widely used as colorants. Several preclinical studies reported that betanin reveals antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, anticancer, anti-diabetes, anti-lipid emic, antimicrobial activity, radio protective and anti ...

Betalains nanodispersions: Effects on betalains stability and on rheological properties of Greek yogurt

Food Research International, 2022
Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) is a great source of betalains. The main betalains are the betacyanins, responsible for the purple color, and betaxanthins, which present a brownish color. These pigments can present antioxidant activity and are very unstable under certain conditions, such as temperature, extreme ranges of pH, and exposure to light.
