Encapsulation of betacyanin extract from red dragon fruit peel with hydrocolloids : molecular mechanism study and application in plant-based protein beverage
This research aimed to investigate the stability of betacyanins from red dragon fruit peel for application in a high-protein plant-based beverage. Betacyanins were extracted using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and HPLC was used to identify the primary components. Density Functional Theory (DFT) was then employe...
