Differential Expression of Amaranth AtrDODA Gene Family Members in Betalain Synthesis and Functional Analysis of AtrDODA1-1 Promoter [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Betalains differ from anthocyanins, and they cannot coexist in the same plant under natural conditions. The L-DOPA 4,5-dioxygenase encoded by the DODA gene is a key step in the pathway of betalain biosynthesis in Caryophyllales plants.

Antimicrobial betalains

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2022
AbstractBetalains are nitrogen-containing plant pigments that can be red-violet (betacyanins) or yellow-orange (betaxanthins), currently employed as natural colourants in the food and cosmetic sectors. Betalains exhibit antimicrobial activity against a broad spectrum of microbes including multidrug-resistant bacteria, as well as single-species and dual-

Betalain extracts: Drying techniques, encapsulation, and application in food industry

open access: yesFood Frontiers, 2023
One of the important food additives used in the food industry is betalain, which is applied as a natural dye. Red beet is the most common resource of betalain. To increase its shelf life, encapsulation followed by drying is commonly carried out. However,
