Haematococcus pluvialis Ikuramo

Haematococcus pluvialis nubwoko bwamazi meza yo mumuryango Haematococcaceae. Ubu bwoko buzwi cyane kubera ubwinshi bwa antioxydants ikomeye yitwa Astaxanthin, ifite akamaro mu bworozi bw'amafi, no kwisiga. Umubare munini wa Astaxanthin uboneka mu ngirabuzimafatizo ziruhuka, zikorwa kandi zegeranya vuba iyo ibidukikije bibaye bibi ku mikurire isanzwe ya selile. Ingero zibi bintu zirimo urumuri rwinshi, umunyu mwinshi, hamwe nintungamubiri nke. Pluvial ya Haematococcus iboneka mu turere dushyuha ku isi. Astaxanthin ni keto-karotenoide. Ni mubyiciro binini byimiti izwi nka terpene.
Astaxanthin yashyizwe mu rwego rwa xanthophyll (mu ntangiriro ikomoka ku ijambo risobanura “amababi y'umuhondo” kubera ko ibara ry'ibabi ry'umuhondo ryibimera byamenyekanye bwa mbere mu muryango wa xanthophyll karotenois). Kimwe na karotenoide nyinshi, astaxanthin ni ibara ryinshi, lipid-soluble pigment.
Astaxanthin iboneka muri microalgae, umusemburo, salmon, trout, krill, shrimp, crayfish na crustaceans. Itanga ibara ritukura ryinyama za salmon nibara ritukura ryibishishwa bitetse.
Astaxanthin itandukanye na karotene nyinshi hamwe na karotenoide izwi, ntabwo ihinduka vitamine A (retinol) mumubiri wumuntu. Kimwe nizindi carotenoide, astaxanthin ifite kwifata kugarukira kumunwa kandi uburozi buke kumunwa kuburyo nta syndrome de toxic izwi.
