Detection and Analysis of Lutein
Lifeasible has rich experience and a mature detection platform in the detection and analysis of plant lutein. We provide a combination of HPLC and biochemical methods, which can quickly and accurately detect the composition and content of lutein in different plant species and different tissue parts, as well as efficient isolation and identification.
Lutein is a kind of carotenoid, which exists widely in vegetables, fruits, flowers, and other plants. It has the functions of vision protection, coloring, anti-oxidation, anti-cancer, delaying early arteriosclerosis, preventing diabetes, and so on.
