Abstract
Abstract: Lycopene is one of the carotenoid pigments naturally occurring in red fruits and vegetables. The most common source for scientific studies on lycopene is from the sources like tomato, watermelon and papaya. It is an antioxidant containing polyene chain with high chemical reactivity, when present in the human system and shows reaction with several oxidizing agents and free radicals generated during several detoxification reactions. The role of lycopene in removal of toxic molecules generated is well recorded. They find major role in prevention of human health disorders including heart diseases. It occurs in cis and tans isomers. Lycopene is synthesized only in plants and its molecular structure undergoes several modifications depending on the presence of solvents. The extraction method adopted includes obtaining the lycopene solid from the aqueous layer which is generally discarded in regular Benzene extraction method. The study of spectral data in selected solvents is carried out with extracted lycopene sample and an attempt is made to elaborate and interpret the spectral data using FT-IR and UV-Visible spectrophotometer. The structural studies help us in understanding possible mechanisms involved in the role of lycopene in alleviating life style disorders and mal-functions in several organ systems.
