Natural edible pigments, high safety and low toxicity, usually possess various nutritional and pharmacological effects, and they have huge practical application value in the market. However, until now, there is no systematic review about the resources, chemical classifications and application about them. Moreover, the extracted methods and biosynthesis pathways which are very important informations for obtaining high-yield and high-purity natural edible pigments from natural resources are still lacking. Therefore, It is necessary to make a comprehensive review of natural edible pigments. In this work, we systematically summarize the resources, chemical classifications, biosynthesis pathways, extraction and separation methods, as well as application of natural edible pigments for the first time. Our work will provide reference data and give the inspiration for further industrial application of natural edible pigments. |
