Biological Activity: Sarcinaxanthin is a carotenoid present in various bacteria with antioxidant activity. Sarcinaxanthin scavenges singlet oxygen, thereby inhibiting oxidative degradation in the β-carotene/linoleic acid system. Sarcinaxanthin acts as a photoprotective agent against UVB radiation that induces erythema. Sarcinaxanthin can be applied in studies related to antioxidation and radiation resistance[1][2].
