Improving the health quality of food by increasing and modifying the carotenoid content
Project
Project code: MRI-PBE-02-02
Contract period: 01.01.2001
- 30.09.2004
Purpose of research: Applied research
This projekt is sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Science with the aim to improve carotenoid availability in food. Our institue investigates formulated carotenoids in cell culture systems in vitro as well as bioavailability and physiological functions of carotenoids from processed food in human dietary intervention studies.
