描述信息

Crocetin is a 20-carbon dicarboxylic acid which is a diterpenoid and natural carotenoid. Found in the crocus flower, it has been administered as an anti-fatigue dietary supplement. It has a role as a nutraceutical, a metabolite and an antioxidant. It is a carotenoic acid, a diterpenoid and a polyunsaturated dicarboxylic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a crocetin(2-).
Vitamin A-analog that increases diffusivity of oxygen in aqueous solutions, including plasma.
Crocetin is a natural product found in Verbascum lychnitis, Gardenia jasminoides, and other organisms with data available.
cis-Crocetin is found in herbs and spices. cis-Crocetin is occurs as glycoside in saffro
