Protective effects of microalgal carotenoids against glycosylation-induced collagen degradation in skin

Long-term high sugar accelerates skin ageing via glycosylation. In this study, microalgae-derived active compounds were investigated for their potentially beneficial effects on skin ageing. Two carotenoids, namely astaxanthin (in the form of either monoester or diester) and lutein, were separated fr...
