Effects of storage temperature, atmosphere and light on chemical stability of astaxanthin nanodispersions. [PDF]
Astaxanthin, as a functional lipid, can be incorporated easily into different water-based food formulations in the form of a nanodispersion. In this study, astaxanthin nanodispersions were produced using different stabilizer systems, namely, polysorbate ...

Comparison of the accumulation of astaxanthin in Haematococcus pluvialis and other green microalgae under N-starvation and high light conditions [PDF]
Haematococcus pluvialis gave the highest astaxanthin accumulation rate (2.7 mg l−1 day−1) and total astaxanthin content ( 22.7 mg g−1 biomass). Astaxanthin accumulation in Neochloris wimmeri, Protosiphon botryoides, Scotiellopsis oocystiformis, Chorella ...

Metabolic engineering of astaxanthin biosynthesis in maize endosperm and characterization of a prototype high oil hybrid [PDF]
Maize was genetically engineered for the biosynthesis of the high value carotenoid astaxanthin in the kernel endosperm. Introduction of a β-carotene hydroxylase and a β-carotene ketolase into a white maize genetic background extended the carotenoid ...
