New natural carotenoid sources. V. Chlorophyll and carotenoid content of Beta vulgaris
Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 1989 Chlorophylls and carotenoid pigments were investigated in leaves of beet (Beta vulgaris L.) obtained from SDE Cluj-Napoca, harvested in September 1987. Leaves had a higher content both in chlorophylls and carotenoids than petioles.

Impact of a new nucleo-cytoplasmic composition on the citrus fuit quality : [23] [PDF]
, 2008 Organic acids, sugars and carotenoids are implied in the fruit quality. A cybrid has been obtained by symmetric protoplast fusion between Willow leaf mandarin (Citrus deliciosa Ten.) and Eureka lemon (Citrus limon (L.) Buno.).

Carotenoids from Marine Organisms: Biological Functions and Industrial Applications
Antioxidants, 2017 As is the case for terrestrial organisms, carotenoids represent the most common group of pigments in marine environments. They are generally biosynthesized by all autotrophic marine organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, algae and fungi.

Phase-controlled dual-comb coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopic imaging [PDF]
, 2017 Coherent Raman microscopy provide label-free imaging by interrogating the intrinsic vibration of biomolecules. Nevertheless, trade-off between high chemical-specificity and high imaging-speed currently exists in transition from spectroscopy to spectroscopic imaging when capturing dynamics in complex living systems.

Effect of drying and storage on the content of provitamin a of orange fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoa batatas) : Direct sun radiations do not have significant impact [PDF]
, 2007 The retention of pro-vitamin A was determined on Orange Fleshed Sweetpotato after drying and storage. Preliminary trials were undertaken to compare various dryers in France (sun, solar and indoor-cross flow dryers) and to optimise and assess carotenoid ...
