On the bioconversion of dietary carotenoids to astaxanthin and its distribution in the marine copepod, Tigriopus californicus

R. J. Weaver, P. A. Cobine, G. E. Hill

This study shows that Tigriopus californicus converts dietary carotenoids to astaxanthin and describes its distribution in egg sacs, but not in naupliar eyespots.
