Beschreibung

Zeaxanthin is a natural product that belongs to the category of phytochemicals. It is a secondary metabolite of plants and is found in the xanthophyll cycle, which governs the conversion of yellow (carotenoids) to red (xanthophylls) pigments. Zeaxanthin has been used as a reference material for HPLC standards, and it has been shown to have bioactive properties.

Zeaxanthin is an important component of plant-based diets and can be isolated from corn, rice, wheat, barley, oats, and maize. Zeaxanthin is also a major carotenoid found in human retina pigment epithelium cells. While zeaxanthin is not typically classified as an essential nutrient, it has been shown to have antioxidant properties that help protect against oxidative stress.
