Astaxanthin for the Food Industry [PDF]
Molecules, 2021 Xanthophyll astaxanthin, which is commonly used in aquaculture, is one of the most expensive and important industrial pigments. It is responsible for the pink and red color of salmonid meat and shrimp. Due to having the strongest anti-oxidative properties among carotenoids and other health benefits, natural astaxanthin is used in nutraceuticals and ...

, 2023 Astaxanthin is a lipid-soluble orange-red pigment in the family of the xanthophylls, which are the oxygenated derivatives of carotenoids, including β-cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin, canthaxanthin, and lutein. Its molecular structure is similar to β-carotene and other carotenoids, but it does not have the biological activity of pro-vitamin A in the human ...
