Common SNP rs6564851 in the BCO1 Gene Affects the Circulating Levels of β-Carotene and the Daily Intake of Carotenoids in Healthy Japanese Women. [PDF]
The circulating levels of β-carotene are modulated not only by sex, but also by autosomal gene variations and fruit intake. The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between β-carotene metabolism-related gene single nucleotide ...

Protective effects of α-tocopherol and β-carotene onpara-nonylphenol-induced inhibition of cell growth, cellular respiration and glucose-induced proton extrusion of bacteria [PDF]
para-Nonylphenol (NP) showed a dose-dependent inhibition against the cell growth of Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus at 5-100 microM. However, other typical plastic-derived endocrine disruptors such as bisphenol A and di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) did not significantly affect the cell growth of ...

Discovery of Several Novel Targets that Enhance β-Carotene Production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
β-Carotene is the precursor of vitamin A, and also exhibits multiple pharmaceutical functions by itself. In comparison to chemical synthesis, the production of β-carotene in microbes by metabolic engineering strategy is relatively inexpensive ...

The influence of regular market selling conditions and storage methods on β-carotene stability and retention were investigated in two different biofortified gari types. Freshly processed gari samples obtained from TMS 01/1412 and TMS 01/1371 respectively were exposed to 35-450C sunlight (ESL) and 60 watts electric bulb light (EEB); stored in black ...
