General description

Canthaxanthin, a diketocarotenoid, belongs to the class of carotenoids and is a strong antioxidant found in many living organisms. The potential antioxidant behavior of canthaxanthin is attributed to the presence of conjugated double bonds in its structure. It is responsible for the animal displays of maturity and the scavenging of reactive oxygen species in plant and animal tissues.

Application

Canthaxanthin (trans) may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in new soil Dietzia sp. and red coral (Corallium rubrum) samples by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Escherichia coli is a non-carotenogenic bacterium that could synthesize farnesyl pyrophosphate precursor through the isoprenoid pathway. Carotenoid production in E. coli requires heterologous expression of carotenoid synthesis genes. The carotenoid synthesis operons are assembled from genes isolated from carotenogenic bacterial
