Application of Bixin Extract from Bixa orellana L. Seeds as a Natural Colorant in Compact Powder Eyeshadow Formulation [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Annatto seeds (Bixa orellana L.) contain natural pigments, namely bixin and norbixin. Bixin can produce a reddish-orange color, commonly used as a natural colorant in food, textiles, and cosmetics.

Improvement of Bixin Carotenoid Stability through the Formation of M–bixin (M = Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Se⁴⁺) Complex Compounds Based on Photodegradation Kinetic Studies

Indonesian Journal of Chemistry
Bixin is used in wide-ranging food applications but is susceptible to degradation by many factors, including light. This research aims to increase bixin photostability through metal complexation. Bixin was complexed with Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, and Se4+.

Extraction of bixin from annatto seeds with microwave

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Abstract This study aims to determine the effect of extraction time (5,10,15 minutes) and the ratio of the aquadest solvent: ethyl acetate (1: 6.5, 1: 7, 1: 8 v/v) to the yield of pigment. The optimum condition was found in the ratio of the solvent of distilled water: ethyl acetate (1: 7 v/v) extraction time of 15 minutes with low ...

Enhanced Spin‐Reorientation Transition and Polarization in DyFeO3 Thin Films

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Epitaxial strain in antiferromagnetic orthoferrite thin films enhances known bulk properties into a parameter range that makes them more accessible for potential applications. We show that bulk polar properties move from 4 K towards room temperature and the magnetic field‐induced AFM to FM spin‐flip in the paramagnetic Dy lattice when applying small ...

Antioxidants from Annatto Seeds as Possible Inhibitory Agents of the Hepatotoxicity Induced by the Antitumor Agent Cisplatin

Natural Product Communications, 2016
The effects of annatto seeds and of bixin on the oxidative damage induced by cisplatin in male Wistar rats was evaluated in the present study by way of lipid peroxidation, weight gain, the food efficiency coefficient, fat deposits in the hepatocytes and ...

Ultrathin Freestanding BiFeO3 Membranes Grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition

Small, EarlyView.
Ultrathin freestanding BiFeO3 membranes down to five‐unit cells are realized by pulsed laser deposition using a water‐soluble Sr3Al2O6 sacrificial layer. Strontium diffusion is revealed to drive the spontaneous formation of an Aurivillius‐like phase, while ultrathin SrRuO3 interlayers suppress interfacial intermixing, preserve polar tetragonality, and ...
