Extraction of Natural Pigments from Hylocereus Polyrhizus Grown In Malaysia [PDF]
The use of natural colors in food is gaining importance because the number of synthetic colorants approved for use in food is legislatively restricted. There is only one type of betacyanin i.e. betanin has been approved as natural food colorant (E-162)

Establishing betaxanthin pigment biosynthesis in cyanobacteria
AbstractBetalains are water-soluble pigments with two major classes: red-violet betacyanins and yellow-orange betaxanthins. These pigments are increasingly being sought after as natural replacements for synthetic pigments in the food industry. Traditionally, betalains are extracted from cultivated plants but, due to low native pigments, the process is ...

This study investigated the incorporation of beetroot in two forms (powder and paste) at five concentration levels (10%–50%) in cupcakes, finding strong linear relationships between beetroot concentration and physical properties. Paste formulations consistently outperformed powder at equivalent concentrations in textural properties, color development ...
