Water Soluble Marigold Flower Extract Powder Supplied Lutein
Zeaxanthin
Renze Lutein Powder Product Description
Lutein is extracted from marigold flower. Lutein is kind of
xanthophyll and one of naturally occurring carotenoids. Usually
lutein coexists with its isomer zeaxanthin, and they can be
interconverted in the body. Lutein is synthesized only by plants.
Humans and mammals must obtain lutein from food.
Lutein powder has yellow-red color, and it is insoluble in water
and propyl glycol; slightly soluble in vegetable oil and n-hexane;
soluble in ethanol, and carrene; easily soluble in ethyl acetate,
tetrahydrofuran and chloroform. Lutein is unstable to light and
hydrogen, and it has to be stored in sealed, cool, dark and dry
condition.
Lutein is primarily used as a colorant in food and supplements due
to its yellow-red color. It appears yellow at low concentrations
and orange-red at high concentrations.
