描述
15-cis-phytoene is a member of the class of compounds known as carotenes. Carotenes are a type of unsaturated hydrocarbons containing eight consecutive isoprene units. They 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. 15-cis-phytoene can be found in a number of food items such as avocado, garden tomato (variety), dill, and other cereal product, which makes 15-cis-phytoene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
