Biotransformation of carotenoids to retinal by carotenoid 15,15′-oxygenase

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2010
Retinal, a precursor of vitamin A, has been used in foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and animal feed additives. Carotenoid 15,15'-oxygenases, including β-carotene 15,15'-oxygenases from mammalians, chickens, fruit flies, zebrafishes, the uncultured marine bacterium, and the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi, and apo-carotenoid 15,15 ...

Photoprotection by carotenoids

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 1988
Carotenoid pigments have been found to have a protective function against photosensitization in green plants. This protective ability has been exploited in the administration of high doses of beta-carotene to patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria to ameliorate the photosensitivity associated with this disease.

The carotenoids of Rhodopseudomonas. I. Carotenoids of the green mutant

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1958
Abstract 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.

The Carotenoids of Several Low‐Carotenoid Fruits

Journal of Food Science, 1964
SUMMARY The 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.
