Scientists develop tool to trace metabolism of cancer-fighting tomato compounds

sciencedaily.com — “The scientists who linked eating tomatoes with a reduced risk of prostate cancer have developed a tool that will help them trace the metabolism of tomato carotenoids in the human body. The researchers will use isotopic labeling of three tomato carotenoids with heavier carbon atoms than are commonly seen in nature, which will allow tracking of the tomato components' absorption and metabolism in the body.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
