Specialty Definition: Lycopene

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Lycopene is a bright red carotenoid pigment found in tomatoes; the name is derived from the tomato's species classification, Lycopersicum lycopersicum

Lycopene, being naturally so prevalent in a common foodstuff, has been licensed for use as a food additive. Its approved use is as a food colouring, though research has shown that it is also a powerful antioxidant, with possibly beneficial effects on health.
