eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.Pulsed electric field (PEF) processing qualitatively reshapes the phytochemical profile of red beet extracts, resulting in enhanced endothelial bioefficacy. Compared with conventional extraction, PEF‐treated extracts more effectively restore nitric oxide signaling, suppress endothelial inflammation, and normalize vascular structure in high‐fat diet ...

First Betalain-Producing Bacteria Break the Exclusive Presence of the Pigments in the Plant Kingdom
mBio, 2019 The biosynthesis of antioxidant pigments, namely, betalains, was believed to be restricted to Caryophyllales plants. This paper changes this paradigm, and enzyme mining from bacterial hosts promoted the discovery of bacterial cultures producing betalains.

On the Light Requirement for Betalain Biogenesis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1968 Anithocyanins and betalain's' represent 2 major classes of red plant pigments which occtur in cell vacuoles. The biogenesis of the wide,spread and weltl known anthocyanins [typical is the red rose pigment, cyanin (I)] requires light in many butt not all plant's which normally produce them (1, 5).

Antioxidant activity of betalains from plants of the Amaranthaceae
, 2003 Antioxidant activity of betalain pigments (seven pure compounds and four combined fractions) from plants of the family Amaranthaceae was evaluated using the modified DPPH. (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method.

The evolution of betalain biosynthesis in Caryophyllales [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2019 SummaryWithin the angiosperm order Caryophyllales, an unusual class of pigments known as betalains can replace the otherwise ubiquitous anthocyanins. In contrast to the phenylalanine‐derived anthocyanins, betalains are tyrosine‐derived pigments which contain the chromophore betalamic acid. The origin of betalain pigments within Caryophyllales and their
