Summary

Canthaxanthin (CX) delayed formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in a concentration-dependent manner in a ferrous chloride-initiated liposome system at 37 °C (p lower than 0.05). CX delayed TBARS formation in minced rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at 4 d of 4 °C storage in trial 1, and at 0, 2, 4 and 6 d in trial 2 when compared with controls at 4 °C (p lower than 0.05). Day 0 TBARS values in trial 2 were equivalent to d 6 of trial 1. Overall, CX demonstrated antioxidant activity in vitro and in the minced tissue of CX-supplemented rainbow trout.
