Characterization of Beet Root Extract (Beta vulgaris) Encapsulated with Maltodextrin and Inulin
Betalains are powerful antioxidants contained in beets. These are divided into betacyanins (red-violet) and betaxanthins (yellow-orange), and they can be used as natural colorants in the food industry. The effects of freeze-drying pure beet juice (B) and

Anti-inflammatory activity of betalains: A comprehensive review
Betalains are nitrogen-based natural pigments present in some species of Caryophyllales plants and some higher-order fungi. Betalains are divided into betacyanins (red-colored) and betaxanthins (yellow-colored).

Lineage-specific gene radiations underlie the evolution of novel betalain pigmentation in Caryophyllales. [PDF]
Betalain pigments are unique to the Caryophyllales and structurally and biosynthetically distinct from anthocyanins. Two key enzymes within the betalain synthesis pathway have been identified: 4,5-dioxygenase (DODA) that catalyzes the formation of ...
