The present invention relates to xanthophyll composition containing (trans, meso)-zeaxanthin), (trans, R,R)-zeaxanthin and (trans, R,R)-lutein useful for nutrition and health care and a process for its preparation. More particularly, the invention relates to a xanthophylls composition containing at least 80% by weight of total xanthophylls, out of which the (trans,3R,3′S, meso)-zeaxanthin content is at least 80%, the remaining being (trans, R,R)-zeaxanthin, (trans, R,R)-lutein and trace amounts of other carotenoids. This invention further provides a xanthophyll composition containing at least 80% by weight of total xanthophylls, out of which at least 50% being (trans, R,R)-zeaxanthin, the remaining being (trans,3R,3′S, meso)-zeaxanthin, (trans, R,R)-lutein and trace amounts of other carotenoids.
本发明涉及一种含有(反式,间位异构体)玉米黄素(zeaxanthin)、(反式,R,R)-玉米黄素和(反式,R,R)-叶黄素的黄色素组合物,用于营养和保健,以及其制备方法。更具体地,该发明涉及一种黄色素组合物,其含有至少80%的总黄色素重量,其中(反式,3R,3′S,间位异构体)玉米黄素含量至少为80%,其余部分为(反式,R,R)-玉米黄素、(反式,R,R)-叶黄素和微量其他类胡萝卜素。本发明进一步提供一种黄色素组合物,其含有至少80%的总黄色素重量,其中至少50%为(反式,R,R)-玉米黄素,其余部分为(反式,3R,3′S,间位异构体)玉米黄素、(反式,R,R)-叶黄素和微量其他类胡萝卜素。
