Article Synopsis
- Red pitaya fruit is gaining popularity as a natural colorant due to its high betalain content, which gives it a vibrant red-purple color sought after in food and cosmetic industries.
- The fruit is also nutritionally valuable, containing bioactive compounds that might help prevent chronic diseases like diabetes and can be used in pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements.
- The study focused on using microfiltration to create a concentrated red-purple pitaya extract, which showed promising results in terms of efficient processing and demonstrated non-toxic and blood sugar-lowering effects in zebrafish, indicating its potential value as both a colorant and a health supplement.
