Extraction and Stabilization of Betalains from Beetroot (<i>Beta vulgaris</i>) Wastes Using Deep Eutectic Solvents

Deep eutectic solvents (DES) using magnesium chloride hexahydrate [MgCl<sub>2</sub>·6H<sub>2</sub>O] and urea [U] proportions (1:1) and (2:1), were prepared for their use as extracting and stabilizer agents for red and violet betalains from beetroot (<i>Beta vulgaris<...
