Carotenoids were extracted from fruits and analyzed by HPLC, according to a method previously described by Xiong [33] . Component's identification and quantitative analysis were done using Agilent 1200 HPLC-DAD analysis system, 5 μm C18 m reverse phase column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, Japan) and 20 mm × 4.6 mm C18 pre column maintained at 35 °C. Using external standard method. The compounds β-carotenoid, and lutein were detected at different stages. The standard samples of β-carotenoid and lutein were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Company (Ge). The concentration of β-carotenoid and lutein were calculated from the experimental peak area by analytical interpolation in a standard calibration curve and was expressed as mg 100 g -1 of fresh weight.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
