Antioxidant activity of β‐carotene‐related carotenoids in solution
Abstract
The effect of the antioxidant activity of β‐carotene and related carotenoids on the free radical‐oxidation of methyl linoleate in solution was examined by measuring the production of methyl linoleate hydroperoxides. Canthaxanthin and astaxanthin which possess oxo groups at the 4 and 4′‐positions in the β‐inonone ring retarded the hydroperoxide formation more efficiently than β‐carotene and zeaxanthin which possess no oxo groups. The rates of autocatalytic oxidation of canthaxanthin and astaxanthin were also slower than those of β‐carotene and zeaxanthin. These results suggest that canthaxanthin and astaxanthin are more effective antioxidants than β‐carotene by stabilizing the trapped radicals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
