Bernstein, Paul S. | Transformations of selected carotenoids in plasma, liver, and ocular tissues of humans and in nonprimate animal models | PURPOSE: To determine the stereochemistry of carotenoids in human ocular tissues in comparison with plasma and liver and to elucidate the possible transformations of dietary (3R,3'R,6'R)-lutein and (3R,3'R)-zeaxanthin in the eye. Similarly, to characterize the carotenoid profiles in the eye tissues,... | Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid; Stereoisomerism; Xanthophylls | 2002 |
