Natural Product Identification
Common NameRubixanthin
DescriptionRubixanthin, also known as e 161D or natural yellow 27, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as xanthophylls. These are carotenoids containing an oxygenated carotene backbone. Carotenes are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Xanthophylls arise by oxygenation of the carotene backbone. Thus, rubixanthin is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule. Rubixanthin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Rubixanthin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as sunflowers, guava, apricots, cloudberries, and figs. This could make rubixanthin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Rubixanthin is found in Calendula officinalis , Carica papaya, Celastrus orbiculatus, Erythrobacter longus, Flavobacterium sp. R-1560, Rosa canina , Rosa rubiginosa , Rosa rubinosa, Rosa rugosa , Rosa villosa, Tagetes patula and Trifolium repens. Rubixanthin was first documented in 1973 (PMID: 4762756). Rubixanthin, or natural yellow 27, is a natural xanthophyll pigment with a red-orange color found in rose hips (PMID: 10563863).
