Carotenoids Synopsis

In the first chapter, Saraid Mora Rochìn, Ph.D., Jorge Milán Carrillo, Ph.D., and Cuauhtémoc Reyes Moreno, Ph.D. review the function of food carotenoids in oxidative stress-induced human disease prevention. In the second chapter, Andrêssa S Fernandes, Pricila N Pinheiro, Mariany C Deprá, Eduardo Jacob-Lopes, and Leila Q Zepka discuss the biosynthesis of carotenoids and bioactive caortenoids from microalgae, as well as their applications. Alexis Marsol-Vall, Albert Tomás, Mercè Balcells, Francisca Vilaró, and Ramon Canela-Garayoa present a study where cuticles of four apple varieties were studied for their carotenoid content in the third chapter. In the fourth chapter, Joanna Igielska-Kalwat reviews the cosmetic applications of carotenoids, including their antiaging properties.
