Protein‐binding approaches for improving bioaccessibility and bioavailability of anthocyanins
Abstract Color is an important characteristic of food. Over the last 15 years, more attention has been paid to natural colorants because of the rising demand for clean‐label food products. Anthocyanins, which are a group of phytochemicals responsible for the purple, blue or red hues of many plants, offer a market advantage.

Elderberries as a potential supplement to improve vascular function in a SARS‐CoV‐2 environment
Elderberry extract (EE) can target both viral infection and vascular dysfunction which could be a useful strategy to reduce morbidity and mortality relating to COVID‐19. Literature looks promising and builds a suggestion for investigating EE against COVID‐19. However, further in vitro and in vivo research is required to fully evaluate elderberries as a

Anatase TiO$_2$ Nanowires Functionalized by Organic Sensitizers for Solar Cells : A Screened Coulomb Hybrid Density Functional Study [PDF]
The adsorption of two different organic molecules cyanidin glucoside (C$_{21}$O$_{11}$H$_{20}$) and TA-St-CA on anatase (101) and (001) nanowires have been investigated using the standard and the range separated hybrid density functional theory calculations.
