| Popis: | 1. 1. In embryos of all stages of development to early pluteus only one carotenoid, all-trans β-echinenon, was detected. 2. 2. The data of Raman and absorption spectroscopy indicate that echinenon in embryo is probably dissolved in lipid formations and not bound to protein. 3. 3. During development, the decrease of echinenon content to 50% of the initial level was observed. The antioxidant role of echinenon in embryo is proposed. |
