Sulfur-Containing Compounds: Natural Potential Catalyst for the Isomerization of Phytofluene, Phytoene and Lycopene in Tomato Pulp [PDF]

Foods, 2021
The effects of some sulfur-containing compounds on the isomerization and degradation of lycopene, phytofluene, and phytoene under different thermal treatment conditions were studied in detail.

Assessment of Food Sources and the Intake of the Colourless Carotenoids Phytoene and Phytofluene in Spain [PDF]

Nutrients, 2021
Phytoene (PT) and phytofluene (PTF), colorless carotenoids, have largely been ignored in food science studies, food technology, and nutrition. However, they are present in commonly consumed foods and may have health-promotion effects and possible uses as cosmetics.

Isolation of Carrot Chromoplasts and Assessment of Their Carotenoid Content and Bioaccessibility [PDF]

Molecules
The bioaccessibility (fraction of compounds released from the food matrix and available for absorption) and carotenoid content of carrot chromoplasts obtained through high-speed centrifugation using sucrose gradients were assessed.

Bioconversion of carotenoids into high-value crocins using a marine sponge carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Carotenoids and apocarotenoids are widespread specialized metabolites, yet animals, including sponges, lack the ability to synthesize carotenoids de novo and must obtain them from dietary or microbial sources. The roles of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in marine animals remain largely unexplored. A CCD from the marine sponge Suberites

Protective effects of colorless carotenoid precursors against UV-induced lipid oxidation in liposomes compared to lycopene [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Consuming tomato-extracts can reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases. As lycopene supplementation alone had a weaker impact, the protective effect may be influenced by the colorless carotenoids phytoene and phytofluene.

Dietary carotenoids and breast cancer risk: evidence from a large population-based incident case-control study [PDF]

Nutrition & Metabolism
Background Although mechanistic studies suggest protective roles for carotenoids against breast cancer (BC), human studies yield inconsistent findings. Few have comprehensively evaluated dietary intake of individual and grouped carotenoids in relation to
