Biotechnological production of zeaxanthin by microorganisms

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Zeaxanthin is a natural xanthophyll carotenoid that is widely produced by plants, algae and microorganisms and plays a critical role in the prevention of age-related eye diseases, such as macular degeneration and cataracts. Zeaxanthin is also used in the food, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries because of its strong antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. To date, zeaxanthin has been primarily produced by...
