The authors investigated the carotenoid content in the particular parts of Lota lota in summer, autumn, and winter, i.e. when burbots exhibit the lowest and highest activity. By means of columnar and thin-layer chromatography, the following carotenoids were found to be present: alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, e-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, neothxanthin, lutein, 3'-epilutein, zeaxanthin, tunaxanthin, antheraxanthin, lutein epoxide, echinenone, 3'-hydroxyechinenone, idoxanthin, canthaxanthin, alpha-doradexanthin, beta-doradexanthin, astaxanthin, diatoxanthin, parasiloxanthin, monadoxanthin, 7,8-dihydroparasiloxanthin, mutatoxanthin and rhodoxanthin. In the Lota lota individuals examined, the content of carotenoids was found to differ in winter and summer. The total carotenoid content ranged from 0.067 (gonads of males) of to 6.095 micrograms g-1 wet weight (fins of males from December).
作者研究了江鳕在夏季、秋季和冬季特定部位的类胡萝卜素含量,即江鳕活动最低和最高的时候。通过柱色谱法和薄层色谱法,发现存在以下类胡萝卜素:α-胡萝卜素、β-胡萝卜素、ε-胡萝卜素、β-隐黄质、新黄质、叶黄素、3'-表叶黄素、玉米黄质、金枪鱼黄质、花药黄质、叶黄素环氧化物、海胆酮、3'-羟基海胆酮、异多叶黄素、角黄素、α-多拉黄质、β-多拉黄质、虾青素、硅藻黄质、副硅黄质、单黄质、7,8-二氢副硅黄质、变叶叶黄素和玫红角黄素。在所检测的江鳕个体中,发现冬季和夏季类胡萝卜素含量不同。总类胡萝卜素含量范围为0.067(雄性性腺)至6.095微克每克湿重(12月雄性鱼鳍)。
