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.

Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

Understanding protein–flavor interactions: Factors, characterization techniques, and the effect of processing

Food Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 47-70, March 2026.
Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...
