carotenoids.mspct: Absorbance spectra for carotenoids.

Description

A dataset containing the wavelengths at an arbitrary nm interval. Tabulated values for the in vitro absorbance spectrum of beta-carotene, lutein, lycopene, 3-4,di-hydro-lycopene, phytoene, phytofluene, violaxanthin and zeaxanthin. Data were digitized from plots downloaded from LipidBase (https://lipidbank.jp/), The official database of Japanese Conference on the Biochemistry of Lipids (JCBL). Data contributed to LipinBank by Takaichi Sinichi.

Arguments

Format

A filter_mspct with eight member filter_spct objects each with 300 rows and 2 numeric variables, w.length and A

Details

The variables of the member spectra are as follows:

  • w.length (nm)

  • A (spectral absorbance)
