Difference between Bixin and Carotenoid

Bixin vs. Carotenoid

Bixin is an apocarotenoid found in annatto, a natural food coloring obtained from the seeds of the achiote tree (Bixa orellana). Carotenoids, also called tetraterpenoids, are organic pigments that are produced by plants and algae, as well as several bacteria and fungi.

Similarities between Bixin and Carotenoid

Bixin and Carotenoid have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apocarotenoid, Cis–trans isomerism, Isomerization.

Apocarotenoid

Apocarotenoids are organic compounds which occur widely in living organisms.

Cis–trans isomerism

Cis–trans isomerism, also known as geometric isomerism or configurational isomerism, is a term used in organic chemistry.

Isomerization

In chemistry isomerization (also isomerisation) is the process by which one molecule is transformed into another molecule which has exactly the same atoms, but the atoms have a different arrangement e.g. A-B-C → B-A-C (these related molecules are known as isomers). In some molecules and under some conditions, isomerization occurs spontaneously.
