Stability of lutein and its myristate esters

Stabilities of lutein and its myristate esters against heat and UV light were studied by HPLC response. Free lutein (FL) was very unstable against heat; lutein monomyristate (LM), slightly stable; and lutein dimyristate (LD), very stable. Both LM and LD were more stable toward UV light than FL. These results suggest that esterification of the OH group with a fatty acid might stabilize lutein against heat and UV-light degradation
