Nutrition, 2001
Larry Machlin had many and varied interests in nutrition in general and antioxidants in particular. Although he was interested primarily in vitamin E, he shared a curiosity about the actions of carotenoids that most nutritionists have. He served on the Organizing Committee of the 8th International Symposium on Carotenoids that was held in Boston in ...

Summary.After a brief discussion of the essential chemical properties of carotenoids, the identification, occurrence and distribution of the pigments in the gonads and related organs of plants and animals have been reviewed. The information available concerning the metabolism of carotenoids in reproductive tissues and their possible function in ...

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 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.

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 ...

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.

Carotenoids are among the most widely distributed pigments in nature, and they are exclusively synthesized by plants and microorganisms. These compounds may serve a protective role against many chronic diseases such as cancers, age-related macular degeneration, and cardiovascular diseases and also act as an excellent antioxidant system within cells ...
