In November 2018, Deinove announced that they are developing their second bio-based
carotenoid for the cosmetics sector.
Percent contents of protein, starch, moisture, oil and ash were estimated along with total
carotenoids contents (ug/g) and total pro-vitamin A
carotenoid (ug/g) contents of kernels.
Total
carotenoids were statistically different at 1.11 x 10[sup.-3], 2.56 x 10[sup.-4], 4.10 x 10[sup.-5] and 9.77 x 10[sup.-5] pounds of total
carotenoid per 100 pounds of BSLM, the control plus 15% BSLM, cornmeal, and a corn-soy commercial diet, respectively.
The AREDS 2 trial recommends incorporation of lutein and zeaxanthin and eliminating beta-carotene which was the only
carotenoid in the original AREDS formulation.

The release of bound
carotenoid compounds is facilitated by the breakdown of CGM during FT pretreatment [20].
Two types of pigments are responsible for the pumage coloration: melanins, which produce a range of black, grey, brown, and orange colors, and
carotenoids, which are used by specialized feather structures to generate brighter color hues.
'They had three different experiments where they would look at the melanin axis, then they would look at the
carotenoid axis, and then in the last experiment they were both combined, so that is where we got the result of seeing that they preferred the
carotenoid to the melanin,' Pezdirc said.

The formulas for calculating apparent and true retention, using the example of
carotenoid content, are found below.
In accordance with the spectrophotometry analysis, the total
carotenoid content was: 16.25mg/100g in Selenge, 16.61mg/100g in Uvs wild berry seed and 22.54 mg/100g for Uvs shelterbelt cultivar seabuckthorn seed oil samples.
After the sampling period, the frozen samples were dried at -55[degrees]C (Christ Freeze Dryer-Alp[ha.sup.-1]-2 LDplus model) and stored at -18[degrees]C in an amber flask filled with N2 for later
carotenoid extraction (Suhnel et al., 2009).
