“…The main constituent is bixin, which represents approximately 80% of the carotenoids in the B. orellana colorant. Lipstick tree is widely used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries (Yolmeh et al, 2014;Taham et al, 2015).…”

Tel:+237691459611To evaluate the impact of a single visit of Xylocopa olivacea on fruit and seed yields of Bixa orellana, its foraging and pollinating activities were studied in Dang, during the rainy seasons of 2010 and 2011. Treatments included unlimited flowers access by all visitors, bagged flowers and flowers limited visits by X. olivacea only. The foraging behavior of X. olivacea on flowers and its pollination efficiency were recorded. Xylocopa olivacea was the third most frequent visitor and it intensely and exclusively collected pollen. The fruiting rate, the mean number of seeds per fruit and the percentage of normal seeds of unprotected flowers were significantly higher compared to protected flowers. Through its pollination efficiency, X. olivacea showed a significant increase of the fruiting rate by 35.83%, the number of seeds per fruit by 1.26% and the percentage of normal seeds by 72.49%. The conservation of X. olivacea nests close to B. orellana fields is recommended to improve fruit and seed production in the region.

“…The color pigment was extracted from the outer coating layer of the seeds of the Bixa orellana L., including bixin (oil-soluble compounds) and nor-bixin (watersoluble compounds). Numerous studies have evaluated the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity from annatto seeds [7,8,9] while other studies have been carried out the extraction and recovery of bixin from annatto seed by various methods [4,10,11]. However, no studies have been conducted using annatto seed powder, which was prepared by the ball-milling method for partial replacement of nitrite in pork sausage products.…”

This study investigated the effect of powder from the outer layer of annatto (Bixa orellana L.) seeds on the physicochemical properties and the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of pork sausages. In fact, six treatments of pork sausage were made including four different concentrations of annatto seed powder as follows: 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 % (T1, T2, T3, and T4, respectively), and 100 % with nitrite (150 ppm, REF); and control (CTL) without nitrite. The Hunter color values of pork sausages were affected by the addition of annatto seed powder, especially by an increase of the redness and yellowness values; however, the lightness of the sausages decreased (p < 0.05). Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBA) and peroxide values (POV) were analyzed. Treatments containing annatto seed showed lower TBA and POV than CTL samples (p < 0.05). Moreover, the addition of annatto seed powder enhanced the texture profile and physicochemical properties of sausages and were similar in value to REF. In conclusion, annatto seed powder might be a good source as a natural colorant and antioxidant for the replacement of nitrite in meat production, and therefore, enhance the quality characteristics of meat products.
