At present, Haematococcus pluvialis is recognized as the best organism for producing natural astaxanthin in nature. Therefore, the use of this microalgae to extract astaxanthin undoubtedly has broad prospects for development, and has become the international hotspotss in the production of natural astaxanthin. Natural astaxanthin is the strongest antioxidant found in nature so far, and its antioxidant activity far exceeds the existing antioxidants.
From the perspective of free radical scavenging ability: astaxanthin is 6000 times the efficacy of vitamin C; 1000 times that of vitamin E; 800 times that of coenzyme Q10; 1800 times that of nitric oxide; 3100 times that of natto; 700 times more effective than anthocyanins; 110 times more effective than β-carotene; 1100 times more effective than nucleicacid (nucleic acid); 1800 times more effective than lycopene (lycopene); 800 times; 320 times the efficacy of teapolyphenols;
Only algae and yeast and bacteria can produce astaxanthin, and higher animals cannot convert this chemical structure.
