Astaxanthin dipalmitate

CAS: 112421-21-3

Astaxanthin dipalmitate is a carotenoid ester, which is derived from natural sources such as microalgae, particularly Haematococcus pluvialis. Its mode of action involves its role as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells and tissues from oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals and reducing lipid peroxidation. This dual palmitate esterification increases its stability and lipid solubility, making it a favorable compound for various applications.
