Scope

What is DD CEN/TS 16233-2- Identification of the enantiomer ratio of astaxanthin in fish flesh about?    DD CEN/TS 16233 is a technical specification on foodstuffs that discusses the HPLC method for the determination of xanthophylls in fish flesh to ensure that the fish flesh is safe for consumption.    DD CEN/TS 16233-2 is the second part of the DD CEN/TS 16233 series that describes a method for the determination of the astaxanthin enantiomer ratio in fish flesh by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).    The racemic astaxanthin mixtures have been observed in the shrimp species Penaeus and in some other orders of higher crustaceans. Therefore, fish exclusively fed with shrimp meal could also contain racemic astaxanthin and could erroneously be regarded ...
