Structure of lutein

Lutein is a class of oxygen-containing carotenoids that share a basic structure: A six-membered carbon ring structure connected by a cogiant chain of 18 carbon atoms, consisting mainly of two Carotenes and Xan thophylIs, the former being a general term for non-oxygenated carotenoids and the latter a general term for oxygenated carotenoids. Including lutein (uten), zeaxanthin, a carotene, cryptoxanthin, purple xanthin capsaicubin and so on.

Distribution of lutein

Distribution of lutein in fruits and vegetables

Lutein exists widely in nature (Table 1), but its form is different. The lutein present in broccoli, green beans, green peas, string beans, Brussels sprouts, kale, kale, spinach, geying, kiwi honey dew and other green vegetables and fruits exists in free and non-esterified form. There is also a large amount of lutein in yellow orange fruits and vegetables such as mango, papaya, peach, plum (plum), acorn pumpkin, bamboo melon and orange, but the lutein in these fruits and vegetables is in the form of cool fatty acids such as carnauic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid. After ingestion of these foods, lutein esters are hydrolyzed to free lutein before being absorbed and metabolized.

Content and distribution of lutein in Marigold

Marigold is native to Mexico. Its flowers and leaves can be used as medicine to clear heat and eliminate phlegm, replenish blood and channel menstrual cycle. It is rich in lutein, which is the most important carotenoid in the petals, and usually 3% to 6% of zeaxanthin, the content of other carotenoids is very small, so it is a very good source of lutein.

Lutein in marigold also exists in the form of lauric acid, myristate acid and palmitic acid, and its content is related to the flower variety, source and location. Some researchers extracted marigold flower petals with hexane, and HPLC analysis showed that there were free lutein and 8 kinds of lutein esters, of which 80% to 100% were lutein vinegar, and the higher content was dimyristate, myristate palmitate, dipalmitate and palmitate stearate (Table 2).

The researchers also compared the pigment content of different flower varieties and tissue parts. As can be seen from Table 2, the average content of T. patula was higher than that of T. erecta, which was 132 mg/100 g and 68 mg/100, respectively. The pigment content of the petals is generally higher than that of the calyx, so that the pigment content of the latter is often negligible, but some varieties have high pigment content in both the petals and calyx.
