CAS 28380-31-6
:Alloxanthin
Description:
Alloxanthin is a carotenoid pigment, specifically a xanthophyll, characterized by its vibrant yellow to orange color. It is primarily found in certain algae and plants, contributing to the coloration of various fruits and vegetables. The chemical structure of alloxanthin includes multiple conjugated double bonds, which are responsible for its light-absorbing properties and antioxidant activity. This compound plays a role in photosynthesis by capturing light energy and protecting photosynthetic organisms from oxidative stress. Alloxanthin is also of interest in nutritional studies due to its potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Its CAS number, 28380-31-6, is a unique identifier used to facilitate the identification of chemical substances in databases and regulatory frameworks. Overall, alloxanthin is significant not only for its ecological roles but also for its potential applications in health and nutrition.
