Lycopene, a Carotenoid found in plant foods, is also a red pigment. Dark red needle-like crystal, soluble in chloroform, benzene and grease but insoluble in water. Unstable to light and oxygen, turning brown in the presence of iron.
It can be used as a pigment in food processing and is often used as a raw material for antioxidant dietary supplement.
At present, Lycopene has not only been widely used as natural pigment, but also more and more used in functional food, medicine and cosmetics.
Lycopene, an unsaturated olefin compound, is the main pigment in mature tomatoes and is a common Carotenoid. Lycopene does not have the beta-carotene β-angelica ketone ring structure, so it can not be converted into vitamin A in the body and is not a pro-vitamin A. The formula is C40H56, which has many cis–trans isomerism. Lycopene is a fat-soluble substance. It is insoluble in water, methanol and ethanol. It is soluble in ether, petroleum ether, hexane and acetone. It is also soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, carbon disulfide and benzene. There are 11 conjugated double bonds and 2 non-conjugated double bonds in lycopene molecule, so its stability is very poor, and it is easy to occur cis-trans isomerization and oxidation degradation. Factors affecting the stability of lycopene include oxygen, light, heat, acid, metal ions, oxidants and antioxidants.
Lycopene has a long chain polyunsaturated olefin molecular structure, so it has a strong ability to eliminate free radicals and antioxidant capacity. At present, the research on its biological function mainly focuses on anti-oxidation, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, reducing genetic damage and inhibiting the occurrence and development of tumor.
