Apocarotenoids are carotenoid-derived compounds widespread in all major taxonomic groups, where they play important roles in different physiological processes. In addition, apocarotenoids include compounds with high economic value in food and cosmetics industries. Apocarotenoid biosynthesis starts with the action of carotenoid cleavage...

The interest in phytoene and phytofluene is expanding. In this study their bioaccessibility from thermally treated orange juices was analysed. Other carotenoids were also considered for comparison. Fresh, pasteurized, and ultrafrozen juices thawed at room temperature (UF-RT), in microwave oven (UF-MW), and in fridge (UF-FG) were investigated....
