title: [Hypophase carotenoids and the structure of epiphase carotenoids of Anabaena variabilis].
abstract: Four major and three minor carotenoids of the glucoside nature were isolated by column and thin-layer chromatography on cellulose from the hypophase fraction of the pigment extract of Anabaena variabilis growing for 8 days. One of these major pigment components was supposed to be myxoxanthophyll. The structure of some epiphase carotenoids of Anabaena variabilis was established. The following pigments were also found to be present in the cell: beta-carotene, echinenone, neoechinenone U, and 3'-hydroxyechinenone, cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin.
