In recent years considerable progress in health therapy makes a significant improvement in natural nutraceuticals. Shrimp is a valuable natural sea food and is processed by removing head, tail and carapace as waste. The large amounts of waste produced by sea food industries capitulate, recoverable nutraceutical compound astaxanthin. This review emphasizes the chemistry and role of astaxanthin in pigmentation. The study highlights progress in applications and describes the current extraction methods starting with chemical to the best eco-friendly microbial processes. Relevant literature on the methods giving summary of results obtained using each approach has been reviewed and critically discussed. Intense research in advancing extraction methods to enhance productivity and to meet the demands of the consumer was discussed in future challenges. Further, aimed at collating valuable information about applications and recent extraction methodologies will promote a concept of intake of "a nutraceutical a day may keep the doctor away".
近年来，健康疗法的巨大进步使得天然营养保健品有了显著改善。虾是一种有价值的天然海鲜，在加工过程中会去除头、尾和壳，这些都是废物。海鲜产业产生了大量的废物，其中可回收的营养保健品虾青素。本综述强调了虾青素的化学性质及其在色素沉着中的作用。该研究重点介绍了虾青素在应用方面的进展，并描述了从化学法到最佳环保微生物法的当前提取方法。综述了关于这些方法的文献，总结了每种方法所获得的结果，并进行了批判性讨论。讨论了在未来的挑战中，如何加强提取方法的研究，以提高生产力，满足消费者的需求。此外，旨在收集有关应用和最新提取方法学的有价值信息，将促进每天摄入“一种营养保健品可能会让医生远离”的概念。
