Celosia argentea: Towards a Sustainable Betalain Source—A Critical Review and Future Prospects [PDF]
PlantsBetalains are nitrogen-containing, water-soluble, and non-toxic natural pigments found in various plant species. Among these, Celosia argentea (Amaranthaceae) has garnered attention as a significant source, accumulating substantial quantities of both red–

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

Stability enhancement of beetroot betalains through copigmentation
, 2022 Background Like other natural pigments, betalains also face stability problem. Copigmentation can be explored to address this issue. In this study, black carrot anthocyanins were first time used as copigment with betalains so that copigmented betalains ...
