9-cis and all-trans beta-carotene isomers of super critical CO2-extracted Dunaliella oil are absorbed and accumulated in mouse tissues

Applied Phycology, 2021
Animals cannot produce β-carotene, and therefore they exclusively depend on its dietary availability. We previously showed that a 9-cis β-carotene-enriched diet, provided as Dunaliella powder, has a beneficial effect on atherosclerosis and diabetes ...
