Abstract

Millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) cultivars from China and Korea were analyzed using HPLC to determine the levels of 5 different carotenoids: lutein, zeaxanthin, b-carotene, 9-cis-b-carotene and 13-cis-b-carotene. There was a significant difference in carotenoid content among cultivars from the 2 locations, with the Chinese cultivars generally having a higher content than the Korean cultivar. Lutein was present at the highest concentration in all of the cultivars, but was 34, 33 and 16 % higher in Joongback (China) than in Joongjukyumi (China), Hwangguem (Korea) and Joongjuk (China), respectively. Joongback also contained 58, 55 and 37 % higher concentrations of zeaxanthin than Joongjukyumi, Hwangguem and Joongjuk, respectively and a 33 % higher concentration of b-carotene than Hwangguem (Korea). The other two carotenoids (9-cis-b-carotene and 13-cis-b-carotene) were present at similar levels in all 4 cultivars. The results suggest that the millet cultivar Joongback from China could potentially be used as a source of carotenoids in the human diet.
