Astaxanthin Molecule credits:
The astaxanthin molecule picture was created using the molecular graphics program RasMol version 2.6 for Windows developed by Dr. Roger A. Sayle.
The three-dimensional atomic coordinates used for RasMol to generate the picture were created with the program CORINA developed at the Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (Prof. Dr. Johann Gasteiger).
