Beetroot Red
Industrial Applications
Beetroot Red is a natural pigment extracted from the beetroot plant (Beta vulgaris) and is primarily used as a food colorant. It imparts a red-violet hue to beverages, dairy products, and processed foods. In addition to its coloring properties, Beetroot Red is valued for being a natural alternative to synthetic dyes and for its antioxidant benefits.
Physical Properties
Beetroot Red contains betalains, with betacyanins responsible for its characteristic red-violet color. It is water-soluble and sensitive to pH, light, and heat, which can affect its stability. The pigment typically appears as a red to reddish-purple powder or liquid extract and is generally stable under mild storage conditions.
