Ultrasound assisted fabrication of the yeast protein-chitooligosaccharide-betanin composite for stabilization of betanin [PDF]
Ultrasonics SonochemistryBetanin, a water-soluble colorant, is sensitive to light and temperature and is easily faded and inactivated. This study investigated the formation of yeast protein-chitooligosaccharide-betanin complex (YCB) induced by ultrasound treatment, and evaluated

Comparison of the effect of betanin on STAT3, STAT5, and KAP1 proteins in HepG2 and THLE-2 cells
Journal of Medical Science, 2023 Background. Several studies suggest that the pleiotropic properties of betanin may interfere with different signaling pathways. Our previous studies on human hepatocytes showed that betanin activated the nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)

Metabolic engineering of rice endosperm for betanin biosynthesis [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2019 Summary Betanin has been widely used as an additive for many centuries, and its use has increased because of its market application as an additive, high free radical scavenging activity, and safety, health‐promoting properties. The main source of betanin is red beet, but many factors notably affect the yield of betanin from red beets.
