Development of an LC-MS/MS method for astaxanthin quantification in shrimp tissues and its application to detect astaxanthin variations during ovary development stages

ObjectiveIn this study, a highly selective and sensitive LC-MS/MS method was developed to comprehensively analyze the distribution of astaxanthin across various tissues of Litopenaeus vannamei, as well as its variations in the hepatopancreas and ovary throughout ovarian development.MethodsThe separa...
