Biochemical behaviour of norbixin duringin vitroDNA damage induced by reactive oxygen species [PDF]

British Journal of Nutrition, 2001
Naturally occurring antioxidants such as carotenoids are extensively studied for their potential in reducing the risk for cancer and other chronic diseases. In the present study, the radical-scavenger activity of the food additive norbixin, a water-soluble carotenoid extracted fromBixa orellanaseeds and commercialized as annatto, was evaluated under ...

Ethanol Based Extraction of Annatto (Bixa Orellana L.) and Characterisation of the Bixin and Norbixin

, 2023
Bixa orellana dye was extracted from the seed by method of Soxhlet extraction using ethanol and a percentage yield of 4.3 was obtained. Recrystallisation of the dye was performed using chloroform and ethanol. TLC was used to separate the dye into Bixin and Norbixin with Rf values of 0.56 and 0.42 respectively.
