Zeaxanthin (3,3'-dihydroxy-β-carotene, molecular formula C40H56O2, molecular weight 566.88) is an isoprene, oxygenated carotenoid (Xanthophyll), and a structural isomer of lutein. Most zeaxanthin found in nature exists in the All-e-isomer form.
Zeaxanthin is a premium oil-soluble natural pigment widely distributed in green leafy vegetables, flowers, fruits, alfalfa, and yellow corn. In natural sources, it frequently coexists with lutein, β-carotene, and cryptoxanthin to form a balanced carotenoid mixture.
