Effect of organic biocolourants on lightfastness and mechanical properties of polylactic acid

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 921-931, December 2025.
Abstract Most modern colourants are acquired from petroleum‐based sources or mining, which often causes environmental degradation. Consequently, alternative colouring solutions are sought, such as using biocolourants, which are organic colourants from bio‐based sources.

Lignin–Chitosan Nanocarriers for the Delivery of Bioactive Natural Products against Wood-Decay Phytopathogens

Agronomy, 2022
The use of nanocarriers (NCs), i.e., nanomaterials capable of encapsulating drugs and releasing them selectively, is an emerging field in agriculture. In this study, the synthesis, characterization, and in vitro and in vivo testing of biodegradable NCs ...

Chemical profiling and characterisation of anthraquinone‐based polyphenols as biocolourants from Cortinarius semisanguineus

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 855-888, December 2025.
Abstract Anthraquinone dyes are known for their significant colour (brightness of shade in the red, blue and green areas) and light fastness properties compared with other synthetic dyes (such as azo‐based dyes). However, challenging multi‐step synthesis of anthraquinones and limited access to fewer substituents result in insufficient reactivity ...

A systematic review of natural colourants and trend forecasting practices for the textile and fashion industry

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 801-827, December 2025.
Abstract Recent global interest in sustainable practices in the textile and fashion industry has inspired stakeholders to readopt natural colourants. However, integrating these practices raises several questions regarding the latest developments in natural colourant and trend forecasting practices in the textile and fashion industry.

Madder (Rubia tinctorum L.) as an Economic Factor Under Sustainability Goals in the Textile Dyeing

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
This study emphasizes that madder is an input compatible with sustainability goals in the textile sector. Madder is an input (dyestuff) that can be used instead of hazardous chemicals in textile dyeing.

Effect of Shear Stress on Anthraquinones Production by Rubia tinctorum Suspension Cultures [PDF]

Biotechnology Progress, 2008
Suspension cultures of Rubia tinctorum, an anthraquinones (AQs) producer, were grown both in Erlenmeyer flasks at 100 rpm and in a 1.5 L mechanically stirred tank bioreactor operating at 450 rpm. The effect of hydrodynamic stress on cell viability, biomass, and AQs production was evaluated.

Exploration of the natural dye alizarin for supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing of polyester, polyamide and cellulose acetate fibres

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 6, Page 889-908, December 2025.
Abstract Conventional textile dyeing utilises large amounts of water and generates significant amounts of wastewater, highlighting the need to utilise more sustainable dyeing methods. Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) dyeing offers a zero‐water, zero‐wastewater alternative with reduced energy requirements and carbon dioxide recyclability. While both
