Application


  • Tackling the challenge of selective analytical clean-up of complex natural extracts: the curious case of chlorophyll removal: This study outlines a methodology for the selective analytical clean-up of complex natural extracts, which can be applied to enhance the purity and stability of trans-β-Apo-8′-carotenal, particularly useful in the context of life science manufacturing and research and development. This approach is crucial for maintaining the integrity of bioactive compounds during synthesis and storage (Bijttebier et al., 2014).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Natural carotenoid that is formed from β-carotene in vivo and is an inducer of cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A) in rats and in Ah-receptor-responsive mice.

Other Notes

Internal standard in the detection of citrus carotenoids by reversed-phase HPLC.

Hematopoietic stem cells are capable of self-renewal and differentiation into different hematopoietic lineages. To gain a comprehensive understanding of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, a systematic proteomic survey of human CD34+ cells collected from human umbilical cord blood was performed, in which

The carotenoids are a chemically related group of pigments which occur widely and abundantly in nature. Fruits, vegetables and vegetable oils, dairy products, leaves, shrimp, lobster, the plumage of exotic birds, all contain carotenoids. Chemically, the carotenoids may be divided

Muskmelons, both cantaloupe (Cucumis melo Reticulatus Group) and orange-fleshed honeydew (C. melo Inodorus Group), a cross between orange-fleshed cantaloupe and green-fleshed honeydew, are excellent sources of β-carotene. Although β-carotene from melon is an important dietary antioxidant and precursor of vitamin

To determine whether carotenoids can modulate xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes in mice, catalytic activities of several phase I and phase II enzymes have been measured in liver microsomes and cytosol of male Swiss mice fed diets containing beta-carotene, beta-apo-8'-carotenal, canthaxanthin, or astaxanthin
