Brief Introduction

Astaxanthin is a natural nutritional component, it can be found as a food supplement. The supplement is intended for human, animal, and aquaculture consumption.

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid. It belongs to a larger class of phytochemicals known as terpenes, which are built from five carbon precursors; isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate . Astaxanthin is classified as a xanthophyll (originally derived from a word meaning “yellow leaves” since yellow plant leaf pigments were the first recognized of the xanthophyll family of carotenoids), but currently employed to describe carotenoid compounds that have oxygen-containing moities, hydroxyl or ketone , such as zeaxanthin and canthaxanthin. Indeed, astaxanthin is a metabolite of zeaxanthin and/or canthaxanthin, containing both hydroxyl and ketone functional groups. Like many carotenoids, astaxanthin is a colorful, lipid-soluble pigment. This colour is due to the extended chain of conjugated (alternating double and single) double bonds at the centre of the compound. This chain of conjugated double bonds is also responsible for the antioxidant function of astaxanthin (as well as other carotenoids) as it results in a region of decentralized electrons that can be donated to reduce a reactive oxidizing molecule.

Function:

1.Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and may protect against oxidative damage to body tissues.

2.Astaxanthin can improve the immune response by increasing the number of antibody producing cells.

3.Astaxanthin is a potential candidate to treat neurodegenerative disease such as Alzhimer and Parkinson diease.

4.Astaxanthin dan reduce UVA-light damage to skin such as sunburn, inflammation, ageing and skin cancer.

Application

1.When applied in pharmaceutical field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antineoplastic;

2.When applied in health food field, astaxanthin powder is used as food additives for pigment and health care;

3.When applied in cosmetic field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antioxidant and anti-aging;

4.When applied in animal feeds field, astaxanthin powder is used as animal feed additive to impart coloration, including farm-raised salmon and egg yolks.

Well i recorded this one ages ago and i just thought that i would upload it now.
It’s about a recyclable plastic really.
But it is also something that i personally use quite a lot and have done for binders in Batteries for example.
It really works well as a conductive plastic with an addition of lets say Graphite. But it is very flexible on Acetates to.
And it is waterproof, fairly heat resistant so can be used as a paint or ink or whatever.
You can also obviously change the conductivity at will.

1. Prepare a fit baking sheet for the baking tray. Do allow the edge of the paper to sit at the tray’s bottom as
this will ensure the baked cookies appears evenly flat. 
2. Place caramel mixed into 1/4 cup and place almond slices into 1/2 cup. If you opt to weight, get caramel
mixed of 25 gram and caramel mixed of 50 gram. If you are using a bigger volume over, just multiply the
ratio to fit your tray size. 
3. Pour both caramel mixed and almond slices into a container. Mix them well. 4. Pour the mixture onto the baking tray. Ensure the edges are well lined with caramel mixed to get a smooth
edge flakes. 
5. Place it into the toaster for 4 minutes. If you are using oven, check for the bubbles and once caramel mixed
melted and turn golden brown, switch off the oven and remove from oven. It shall take only about
5 minutes to bake.  6. Once the toaster’s timer rings at 4 minutes, the caramel has started melting. Open the toaster and rotate
the tray direction to make the heating even (so that all corners turn into golden brown) for another
1 minute. This process is only required if you use a toaster to bake.
7. Once the caramel turns golden brown and bubbling, it shows the cookies are baked to perfection.8. Remove the cookies from the toaster. Use the long knife to shape the cookies into squares. 
9. Allow them to cool down. Then, slowly tear off the baking sheet and break them into squares or pieces. 

Big feast is now ready. This caramel almond flakes or cookies smell incredibly good of strong baked almond.
