Antheraxanthin: Insights delving from biosynthesis to processing effects

Le résumé fourni par la source

) is one of fat-soluble carotenoids belonging to natural pigments. Its chemical structure is based on the unsaturated polyene chain skeleton, with a hydroxy-β-ionone ring and an epoxy-β-ionone ring on each side of the skeleton. It is found in a wide range of plants and photosynthetic bacteria, and external stimuli (high temperature, drought, ozone treatment, etc.) can significantly affect its synthesis. It also, like other carotenoids, exhibits a diverse potential pharmacological profile as well as nutraceutical values. However, it is worth noting that various food processing methods (extrusion, puffing, baking, etc.) and storage conditions for fruits and vegetables have distinct impacts on the bioaccessibility and retention of antheraxanthin. This compilation of antheraxanthin includes sources, biosynthesis, chemical analysis, and processing effects.
