Pharmacology Action:
Lycopene is a bright red carotenoid pigment and phytochemical found in tomatoes and other
red fruits. Its name is derived from the tomato's species classification, Solanum
lycopersicum where "lyco" is Greek for wolf, "persicum" means peach and tomato implies
"wolf-peach".
In plants, algae, and other photosynthetic organisms, lycopene is an important intermediate
in the biosynthesis of many carotenoids, including beta carotene, responsible for yellow,
orange or red pigmentation, photosynthesis, and photo-protection. Structurally, it is a
tetraterpene assembled from eight isoprene units, composed entirely of carbon and hydrogen,
and is insoluble in water. Lycopene's eleven conjugated double bonds give it its deep red
color and are responsible for its antioxidant activity. Due to its strong color and non-
toxicity, lycopene is a useful food coloring.
