Informations sur le produit

• Nom: Betanin
• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: Betanin is a natural pigment, which is a betalain that is derived from the roots of the red beet plant (Beta vulgaris). Betanin's mode of action involves its role as an antioxidant; it is capable of scavenging free radicals due to its chemical structure, thus providing protection against oxidative stress. This makes betanin not only a valuable colorant but also a compound of interest for its potential health benefits.Betanin is widely used in the food industry as a coloring agent, imparting a red to pink hue to various products such as beverages, dairy products, and confectioneries. Its natural origin makes it a preferred choice in formulations where synthetic dyes are undesirable. Beyond its coloring properties, betanin's antioxidant activity is being explored for applications in nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals where oxidative stability is needed. In research contexts, betanin is also of interest for its potential protective effects in cellular models, making it a compound worth consideration for further study in biochemistry and medicinal chemistry.
