Astaxanthin determination in marine biological samples : an overview
Máster en Oceanografía Astaxanthin (AX) is a pigment that belongs to the family of the xanthophylls, the oxygenated derivatives of carotenoids whose synthesis in plants derives from lycopene. AX, which may not be synthesized de novo by animals, is one of the main pigments in marine ecosystems found...
