PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Fucoxanthin is an epoxy carotenoid alcohol found in brown algae, possessing anticancer, antidiabetic, antioxidant, and neuroprotective activities. It is a secondary metabolite of algae and plants, as well as a marine-derived CFTR enhancer, food antioxidant, hypoglycemic agent, apoptosis inhibitor, and hepatoprotective agent; structurally, it belongs to the categories of epoxy carotenoids, acetates, secondary alcohols, tertiary alcohols, and allylene compounds.
