Violaxanthin
Violaxanthin is a lipophilic epoxy carotenoid and a light energy scavenger with biological activities such as antioxidation and anti-inflammation. Violaxanthin exists in photosynthetic eukaryotes including higher plants and participates in the xanthophyll cycle. As a component of the xanthophyll cycle, violaxanthin can be synthesized from zeaxanthin under the catalysis of epoxidase and scavenge excess light energy in photosynthetic eukaryotes.

Activité biologique
Violaxanthin is biosynthesized from zeaxanthin (HY-120318) via antheraxanthin in photosynthetic eukaryotes, including higher plants, under the action of zeaxanthin epoxidase (ZEP), and participates in the xanthophyll cycle to dissipate excess light energy[1].
Violaxanthin is sensitive to light and heat, requiring strict light-shielding operations. For experimental concentrations, references of analogous xanthophylls (Lutein/Zeaxanthin) can be consulted.
