Analysis of Moonglow Tomato Phytochemical Composition

This analysis conducted by Jessica Cooperstone at the Schwartz Lab on March 11, 2014, for the Heritage Food Crop Research Trust and Plant & Food Research NZ, delves into the phytochemical composition of Moonglow tomatoes. The study includes detailed data on carotenoid content, such as phytoene, phytofluene, zeta-carotene, neurosporene, tetra-cis-lycopene, other cis-lycopene, and all-trans-lycopene. Quantitation results show the concentration of these carotenoids per 100g of dried Moonglow powder. The analysis provides valuable insights into the nutritional profile of Moonglow tomatoes.
