Stereoisomers of Colourless Carotenoids from the Marine Microalga Dunaliella salina [PDF]
Carotenoids comprise a diverse range of naturally occurring stereoisomers, which differ in their physico-chemical properties. Their biosynthesis begins with phytoene, which is a rarity among carotenoids because it is colourless.
