Abstract
Betanin, the red pigment in red beet extract (RBE), is susceptible to degradation under acidic conditions, limiting its application as a colorant and ingredient in food products. This study investigated complex formation between betanin in RBE with pea protein isolate (PPI) to improve the stability of betanin at pH 3. Spectroscopic analysis showed that the interactions between PPI and RBE affected the secondary and tertiary structure of PPI, and a transition from α-helical to β-sheet conformation occurred. Gel-electrophoresis confirmed that PPI proteins were involved in PPI-RBE interactions. Furthermore, the size of PPI-RBE particles was found to increase with an increase in RBE concentration. As the PPI-RBE complex had improved antioxidant activity and long-term refrigerated stability compared to the RBE control, this indicates that PPI-RBE complexes could expand the applicability of betanin as a natural colorant and antioxidant in acidic foods while also increasing nutritional value with the added pea protein.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
