A Quantitative Analysis Model Established to Determine the Concentration of Each Source in Mixed Astaxanthin from Different Sources

Astaxanthin from different sources possesses different biological activities and optical isomers. The ingredients of astaxanthin mixtures from different sources on the market have often been mislabeled. Therefore, it is important to determine the sources of astaxanthin and their respective concentra...
