Metabolite Identification
Common Namebeta-Bixin
Descriptionbeta-Bixin is a constituent of the pigment annatto found in Bixa orellana (achiote). Annatto has been linked with many cases of food-related allergies, and is the only natural food coloring believed to cause as many allergic-type reactions as artificial food coloring. Because it is a natural colorant, companies using annatto may label their products "all natural" or "no artificial colors". Annatto, sometimes called Roucou, is a derivative of the achiote trees of tropical regions of the Americas, used to produce a red food coloring and also as a flavoring. Its scent is described as "slightly peppery with a hint of nutmeg" and flavor as "slightly sweet and peppery". It is a major ingredient in the popular spice blend "Sazn" made by Goya Foods
