Soluble in chloroform, benzene, carbon disulfide, oil etc..
Usage: 1.Antioxidant: Phosphorus and lipid metabolism in inhibiting cancer cell through the antioxidant lycopene, the regulation of tumor suppressor gene, reduce the incidence of cancer, inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells
2. stability :
(1) Lycopene is a kind of functional natural pigment, has a strong physical activity. Lycopene was extracted from tomato skin pigment, can fully realize the comprehensive utilization of resources, to prevent the pollution of the environment, with economic feasibility. For example, the by-product of TOMATO PASTE factory waste (tomato pericarp and tomato seeds) to use.
(2) the lycopene has good stability to heat, 50 ℃ better stability.
(3) acid on the stability of lycopene little damage, and the larger the influence of the alkali, acid stable lycopene.
(4) reducing agent Ascorbic Acid is often used as antioxidant for canned fruit, fruit juice, vegetables and other foods. But under certain conditions, it can also be a pro oxidant. According to reports, ascorbic acid at low concentrations of carotenoid, linolenic acid system is pro oxidant, the pro oxidant effect may be related with ascorbic acid in system and existing oxygen and trace metal ions, so in tomato products or in the use of lycopene, if you want to add ascorbic acid in the products, attention should be paid to metal ions the presence of ascorbic acid, may be produced by oxygen, optimization processing method, in the use of ascorbic acid at the same time, adding the necessary metal ion chelating agent and other phenolic antioxidants.
(5) effect of citric acid on the stability of lycopene than acetic acid, this is because the citric acid ratio of acetic acid, two acid concentration, the former can reduce the pH value of the solution, only when the solution pH is lower than a certain value, will be on the stability of lycopene have a significant impact, so in the production of tomato products or lycopene should pay attention to controlling the pH value.
