Carotenoids for ruminants : From forages to dairy products

TL;DR: The color of dairy products highly depends on their carotenoid concentration, suggesting that color may be a promising rapid measurement tool for traceability of feeding conditions.

Carotenoids and their isomers: Color pigments in fruits and vegetables

TL;DR: Several carotenoids and their isomers present in different fruits and vegetables along with their concentrations play an important role in protecting cells from oxidation and cellular damages.

Natural food pigments and colorants

TL;DR: The natural color of foods is due primarily to carotenoids, anthocyanins, betanin and chlorophylls, either as inherent food constituents or as food or feed additives as discussed by the authors.

Potential of NIR-FT-Raman spectroscopy in natural carotenoid analysis.

TL;DR: Spectra obtained indicate that the wavenumber location of CC stretching vibrations is mainly influenced both by the length as well as by the terminal substituents of the polyene chain of carotenoids and by their interaction with other plant constituents.

The effect of cooking on the phytochemical content of vegetables

TL;DR: It can be concluded that steaming will ensure better preservation/extraction yield of phenols and glucosinolates than do other cooking methods: steamed tissues are not in direct contact with the cooking material so leaching of soluble compounds into water is minimised and, at the same time, thermal degradation is limited.

Dietary Factors That Affect the Bioavailability of Carotenoids

TL;DR: Research into the functional benefits of carotenoids should consider the fact that the bioavailability of beta-carotene in particular is one order of magnitude higher when provided as a pure compound added to foods than when it is present naturally in foods.

Biological actions of carotenoids.

TL;DR: In epidemiological studies, the intake of carotenoid‐rich fruits and vegetables has been correlated with protection from some forms of cancer, particularly lung cancer, and serum β‐carotene levels have been associated with a decreased chance of developing lung cancer.
