Description

The carotenoids in sea bream have been studied intensively and reported in the series of this thesis. For two weeks, sea bream were cultured in the laboratory and fed radioactive β-carotene-15, 15'-3H2 (group 1) and labelled astaxanthin (group 2). It was confirmed that radioactive, β-carotene-15, 15'-3H2 was not converted into astaxanthin in sea bream, but labelled astaxanthin was transferred to body astaxanthin.
