ABSTRACT In this study, a catalog of β-cryptoxanthin (βCX) and its fatty acid esters (βCXFAs) in citrus fruits were constructed. The peel and pulp of citrus fruits from nine Japanese cultivars and one ...

Without any doubt, the high levels of RAE in canned Satsuma compared to other citrus juices are related to their significantly higher concentrations of β-cryptoxanthin. 3.6 Sensorial evaluation Color ...

Low serum carotenoid levels (α-carotene, β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, and lutein plus zeaxanthin concentrations) were associated with an increased risk for migraine. Low serum levels of several ...

Higher dietary carotenoid intake is linked to reduced biological age acceleration, thanks to their antioxidant properties. This study highlights the potential of carotenoids like β-carotene and ...

In our study, β-cryptoxanthin was the main carotenoid in most varieties, and its content correlated with the color of the citrus fruit. Kato et al. (39) reported that the carotenoids detected in ...

The most important antioxidants for brain protection may be the carotenoids lutein+zeaxanthin and beta-cryptoxanthin, new research suggests.

Participants with the highest levels of lutein, zeaxanthin, and beta-cryptoxanthin were much less likely to develop dementia decades later.

For beta-cryptoxanthin, every standard deviation increase in levels, approximately 8.6 micromols/liter, was associated with a 14% reduced risk of dementia.

Naturally occurring plant pigments. More than 650 types exist in nature. These pigments are found in nearly all fruits and green leafy vegetables. The common carotenoids found in human’s due to ...
