Description: astaxanthin is a naturally occurring high-value ketocarotenoid pigment with excellent antioxidant effects belonging to the xanthophyll group of carotenoids, or the oxygenated carotenoids. The hydroxyl and keto functional groups present in the ending ionone ring of astaxanthin are responsible for its uniquely powerful antioxidant activity. It is available in standardizations of 10% astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is present in many types of seafood, including salmon, trout, red sea bream, shrimp and lobster, as well as in birds such as flamingo and quail. Astaxanthin is commercially produced from the microalga h. Pluvialis. Hematococcus pluvialis is believed to accumulate the highest levels of astaxanthin in nature. It accumulate the highest levels of astaxanthin in nature; commercially more than 40g of astaxanthin per kilo of dry biomass. These green algae also provide other important carotenoids such as beta-carotene. Other strains that could be used for astaxanthin production include: chlorella vulgaris, chlorella zofingiensis, coelastrella striolata var. Multistriata
10% astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid compound naturally found in marine organisms and is often used as an ingredient in health care products and cosmetics. Astaxanthin is a red fat-soluble carotenoid with a molecular formula of C40H52O4 and a molecular weight of 596.84. It exists in various marine organisms, including large yellow croaker, salmon, river shrimp, lobster, etc., and can also be extracted from certain microorganisms. Astaxanthin has high antioxidant properties and has a strong scavenging effect on free radicals, ROS (reactive oxygen species) and monocytes. Antioxidant effect: Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that can reduce the production of free radicals and reduce the damage to cells caused by oxidative stress, helping to prevent various diseases and slow down the aging process. Cardiovascular protection: Astaxanthin can reduce cholesterol accumulation and oxidative damage, which is helpful in preventing atherosclerosis, hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. Enhance immunity: The antioxidant properties of astaxanthin can enhance the function of the immune system, improve the body's immunity, and help prevent infections and diseases. Improve skin: Astaxanthin can improve skin elasticity and gloss by reducing the production of free radicals and stimulating collagen production, which is helpful in preventing skin aging and wrinkles. Relieve eye problems: Because astaxanthin can penetrate the tissue of the eye, it has a certain effect in protecting and relieving eye problems, such as reducing eye fatigue and improving vision.

Astaxanthin CAS No.: 472-61-7 Assayú¦í¦5% Appearance: Fine crystal powder Color: wine Usage: Astaxanthin is a red pigment occurring naturally in a wide variety of living organisms. Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid that is closely related to beta-carotene and Lutein.
Astaxanthin is a keto-carotenoid. Like many carotenoids, astaxanthin is a colorful, lipid-soluble pigment.While astaxanthin is a natural dietary component, it can also be used as a food supplement. The supplement is intended for human, animal, and aquaculture consumption.Astaxanthin is present in most red-coloured aquatic organisms. The primary natural sources for industrial production of astaxanthin comprise the following: Euphausia, Haematococcus pluvialis, Phaffia rhodozyma etc.Haematococcus pluvialis is a freshwater species of Chlorophyta from the family Haematococcaceae. This species is well known for its high content of the strong antioxidant astaxanthin, which is important in aquaculture, and cosmetics.
Iã??Speccifications and properties of astaxanthin: Name:astaxanthin Source: extraction of natural haematococcus pluvialis CAS no.:472-61-7 Molecular formula:C40H52O4 Specifications:1%-10% Appearance:dark red powder Detection method:UV/HPLC IIã??Basic introduction of astaxanthin: Astaxanthin, also known as astaxanthin and lobster shell pigment, is a carotenoid and the highest level product of carotenoid synthesis. It is dark pink and chemically similar to beta carotene. And beta carotene, lutein, keratin, lycopene, etc. are intermediate products of carotenoid synthesis, so astaxanthin has the strongest antioxidant activity in nature. It is one of the main carotenoids in Marine organisms, especially in the feathers of shrimp, crab, fish, algae, yeast and birds. Natural shrimp green element (natural shrimp red element) one of the world's most powerful natural antioxidant, effectively remove oxygen free radicals within the cell, enhance the capacity of cell regeneration, balance the body and reduce the accumulation of senescent cells, by inside and outside to protect healthy cells and DNA, thus protecting the skin health, promoting hair growth, anti-aging, alleviate sports fatigue and increase your energy. Since 2008, a large number of studies at home and abroad have confirmed that astaxanthin has strong antioxidant activity, and plays a positive role in improving immunity, preventing the occurrence and development of cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and other chronic diseases, and delaying aging. IIIã??Efficacy of astaxanthin: 1.It can protect the eyes and brain central nervous system; 2.It can prevent cardiovascular diseases and enhance human immunity; 3.It can relieve sports fatigue and enhance energy metabolism in the body; 4.It can be anti-inflammatory, anti-infection; 5.It can inhibit tumors, diabetes and kidney disease. IVã??Application of astaxanthin: 1.It can be applied in the health care products industry; 2.It can be applied in the food and beverage industry; 3.It can be applied in the medical and pharmaceutical industry.
