(1) Background: Recent research on the valorization of agro-industrial waste has attempted to obtain new products. Grape residue is a waste product used in the grape wine industry that is rich in anthocyanins, as well as leaves and waste parts from red cabbage processing. Anthocyanins, thanks to their various functionalities, can be recovered and used as active and intelligent agents in food packaging. Anthocyanins have antioxidant properties that help to prevent cardiovascular disease. (2) Methods: In this study, the process of extracting waste was studied using solvent and supercritical CO extraction. The obtained anthocyanins were used in starch-based food film formulations. Several formulations were studied using rheometric techniques and the effect of adding anthocyanins on optimal film formulation was investigated. (3) Results: Solvent extractions resulted in a maximum extraction yield. The extracts obtained were used for the preparation of coating and edible films, optimized in the formulation. (4) Conclusions: The addition of anthocyanins to films resulted in increased sample structuring and mechanical properties that are valid for applications, like dipping using coverage methods. The packaging is also attractive and pH-sensitive.

In this protocol for obtaining doubled haploids plants (DH), we propose a new method for microspore isolation. This method is useful for genotypes of the Brassicaceae family with low responsiveness to DH technology. For such crops, it allows increasing the embryo yield several times and sometimes obtaining embryos for the first time.

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) possesses substantial economic value as an oil, vegetable, and forage crop, while also exhibiting notable ornamental characteristics. Recent advances in flower colour breeding have significantly enhanced the visual appeal of rapeseed, with anthocyanins identified as the primary contributor to the development of red, purple, and pink flowers.

School of Agricultural Engineering and Food Science, Shandong University of Technology, Zibo 255049, Shandong, PR China. Electronic address:

A novel high stability pH-sensitive smart film (GGPS-R-FA) was prepared by using gellan gum (GG) and potato starch (PS) as the film-forming material, red cabbage anthocyanins extract (RCAE) as the indicator, and ferulic acid (FA) as the co-pigmentation agent. The enhancement effect of co-pigmentation on the stability of RCAE, as well as the performance and application of smart film were investigated. The RCAE co-pigmented with FA showed higher absorbance and greater thermal stability, as evidenced by the retention of anthocyanin content and thermodynamic parameters.

Postprandial hyperglycemia is a hallmark of diabetes, and inhibition of key carbohydrate digestion enzymes such as α-amylase (α-AMY) and α-glucosidase (α-GLU) is an effective therapeutic target. A potential unexplored source of inhibitory compounds of these enzymes is Brassica oleracea var. capitata L (BOCE).

Skin wounds can drive global impacts, socially and economically, in parallel with their elevated incidence rate. Therefore, utilizing the dual-activity of Brassica Oleracea (Red Cabbage) extract, of being pH-sensitive and biologically active in designing novel, therapeutic, and pH-sensitive wound dressings with an easily stripped-off feature, is critical. Wound dressings were designed using two separate hydrogels based on chitosan (CS) and hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), each loaded with RCE.
