Carotenoid Pigments: Supercritical Fluid Chromatography
Carotenoids are one of the main classes of natural pigments and are found in a large number of fruits and vegetables (oranges, tomatoes, carrots) and in leaves where their presence is masked by chlorophylls until autumn. They are also found in some animal products (eggs, milk) and seafoods. Typically, carotenoids contain eight isoprenoid units bonded such that the units are reversed at the cent...
متن کاملCarotenoid pigments and photokilling by acridine orange.
It has long been known that certain organic dyes can photosensitize cells, leading to cellular damage or death. Recently, studies were performed on one such dye, Toluidine Blue, to determine the mechanism of its lethal photosensitization of bacteria (M. M. Mathews, J. Bacteriol. 85:322, 1963). These studies showed that the cellular site of the lethal action was the cytoplasmic membrane and its ...
متن کاملDietary carotenoid pigments and immune function in a songbird with extensive carotenoid-based plumage coloration
Carotenoid pigments can directly enhance the immune responses of vertebrates, and they are used by many animals to create ornamental color displays. It has been hypothesized that these two functions of carotenoid pigments are linked: animals must trade off use of carotenoid pigments for immune function versus ornamental display. We tested two key predictions of this hypothesis with captive Amer...
