Prasinoxanthin

CAS : 94705-97-2

Prasinoxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid, which is a type of pigment found in certain species of microalgae, particularly in the Prasinophytes. As a natural pigment, it is primarily sourced from marine algae collected for both research and biotechnological applications. Carotenoids like Prasinoxanthin function by absorbing light energy for photosynthesis and protecting cells from photooxidative damage, showcasing significant antioxidant activity. This activity is attributed to its ability to quench singlet oxygen and neutralize free radicals, thereby preventing oxidative stress.
