  <name>Apo-9-zeaxanthinone</name>
  <description>Apo-9-zeaxanthinone is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Apo-9-zeaxanthinone is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak acidic compound (based on its pKa). Apo-9-zeaxanthinone can be found in a number of food items such as red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, green bell pepper, and pepper (c. annuum), which makes apo-9-zeaxanthinone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. </description>
