The Metal Cation Chelating Capacity of Astaxanthin. Does This Have Any Influence on Antiradical Activity?
In this Density Functional Theory study, it became apparent that astaxanthin (ASTA) may form metal ion complexes with metal cations such as Ca(+2), Cu(+2), Pb(+2), Zn(+2), Cd(+2) and Hg(+2). The presence of metal cations induces changes in the maximum absorption bands which are red shifted in all ca...
