Vue d’ensemble
Astaxanthin (AST) is a red dietary carotenoid. It is mainly found in aquatic animals and microalgae, such as Haematococcus pluvialis and Chlorella zofingiensis.
Application： Astaxanthin has been used: as an antioxidant to study its effect on Brachionus manjavacas (Rotifera) population growth to study its effects on the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. to investigate its role in restoring the expression of Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2) and glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) through epigenetic modification in human prostate LNCaP cells.
Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant with antiproliferative, neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory activity. Astaxanthin protects against oxidative stress, inhibiting NF-KB, suppressing pro-inflammatory genes and suppressing production of pro-inflammatory

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as xanthophylls. These are carotenoids containing an oxygenated carotene backbone. Carotenes are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Xanthophylls arise by oxygenation of the carotene backbone.
