![]() | Bernstein, Paul S. | Identification of lutein and zeaxanthin oxidation products in human and monkey retinas | PURPOSE: To characterize fully all the major and minor carotenoids and their metabolites in human retina and probe for the presence of the oxidative metabolites of lutein and zeaxanthin. METHODS: Carotenoids of a composite of 58 pairs of human retinas and a monkey retina were elucidated by comparing... | Mass Spectrometry; Oxidation-Reduction; Spectrophotometry, Ultraviolet | 1997 |

![]() | Bernstein, Paul S. | Retinal tubulin binds macular carotenoids | PURPOSE: To investigate the biochemical mechanisms responsible for the specific uptake, concentration, and stabilization of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin in the macula. METHODS: Soluble extracts of bovine retina mixed with radioactive carotenoids were purified by hydrophobic interaction, ion... | Chromatography, Gel; Electrophoresis; Xanthophylls | 1997 |
