Carotenoids are a class of isoprenoids synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms as well as by some non-photosynthetic bacteria and fungi with broad applications in food, feed and cosmetics, and also in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries.

In recent years, the results of research studies have suggested a positive beneficial relationship between a vegetarian-based diet and low incidence of diseases, including coronary heart disease, cancer, obesity, dental caries, and osteoporosis. beta-Carotene has specifically been suggested as a nutrient with antitumorigenic properties.

Carotenoids occur universally in photosynthetic organisms but sporadically in nonphotosynthetic bacteria and eukaryotes. The primordial carotenogenic organisms were cyanobacteria and eubacteria that carried out anoxygenic photosynthesis. The phylogeny of carotenogenic organisms is evaluated to describe groups of organisms which could serve as sources ...

Carotenoids in cyanobacteria have two main functions: they serve as light-harvesting pigments in photosynthesis, and they protect against photooxidative damage. Carotenoids are generally hydrophobic isoprenoid compounds that are synthesized in membranes.

The Carotenoids of Several Low‐Carotenoid Fruits
Journal of Food Science, 1964SUMMARYThe carotenoids were examined in several fruits of low carotenoid content. Fruits studied in detail were black figs, cranberries, and Thompson seedless grapes; the examination was less comprehensive for blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and pomegranates.

The carotenoids of Rhodopseudomonas. I. Carotenoids of the green mutant
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1958Abstract The two main carotenoid pigments of a green mutant of Rhodopseudomonas spheroides are neurosporene, a tetrahydrolycopene, C 40 H 60 ; and chloroxanthin, C 40 H 60 O 2 . The latter contains at least one and possibly two hydroxyl groups. Because they are difficult to acetylate, it is suggested they may be tertiary alcohols.

Publisher Summary Carotenoid pigments can function as effective quenchers of singlet oxygen and oxygen-centered radicals; interest has been rekindled in the utilization of these compounds as probes for mechanisms of oxygen radical generation, action, and damage. This chapter discusses the methods of extraction of carotenoid pigments, their separation
