Enhanced photoconductivity in CdS/betanin composite nanostructures
RSC Advances, 2018 The synthesis is described of inorganic/organic hybrid nanostructured composites based on CdS/betanin with enhanced photoconductivity due to the transfer of photogenerated electrons from the conduction band of betanin to the conduction band of CdS.

Mechanism of interaction of betanin and indicaxanthin with human myeloperoxidase and hypochlorous acid [PDF]
, 2005 Production of nitrogen dioxide by the activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the presence of nitrite is now considered a key step in the pathophysiology of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation.

Distribution of betalain pigments in red blood cells after consuption of cactus pear fruits and increased resistance of the cells to ex vivo induced oxidative hemolysis in humans [PDF]
, 2005 Betalain pigments are bioavailable phytochemicals recently acknowledged as natural radical scavengers. This work, which extends previous research on the postabsorbitive fate of dietary betalains, investigated the distribution of betanin and ...

Betanin: A Bioeconomy Insight into a Valued Betacyanin
ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2017 Sourced so far mostly from beet root juice, betanin is a red-violet natural colorant increasingly used by the food, beverage and nutraceutical industries. We provide an updated bioeconomy perspective into a valued betacyanin whose supply and applications, we argue in this study, will rapidly expand.
