Product Description
Lycopene here is the red carotenoid from tomato, commonly 5%, 10% or 20% in a powder on a carrier. It is oil-soluble. A water-dispersible grade is a formulated powder, not a higher assay.
It is used in softgels, colour systems and antioxidant capsules. Tomato powder at a few hundred ppm lycopene will not hit these percents.
When buying, state beadlet versus oil, the percent, and whether the carrier is allergen-relevant.

Applications
Colour Systems
5–20% is a colour and nutrient ingredient, not dried tomato flake.
Antioxidant Capsules
Match the percent to the label milligrams. Carriers change the mass.
Dispersible Only
Oil and ordinary powder ring a bottle. Ask for a beadlet if the use is a drink.
Strong Colour
5–20% lycopene will stain a white cream. Dose for colour as well as milligrams.
Oil Fill
Lycopene is oil-soluble. Softgels use an oil or a beadlet, not a water solution.
FAQ
What lycopene assays are available?
About 5%, 10% and 20% lycopene.
Will the 95-style powder dissolve in water?
Not by nature. A dispersible powder is a carrier system. Ask for it explicitly.
Which fruit is the lycopene taken from?
Tomato fruit.
What lycopene levels are available?
About 5%, 10% and 20% on a carrier.
Is this tomato powder?
No. Dried tomato is a few hundred ppm. This is a concentrated lycopene powder.
What carrier is in the powder?
The 5–20% grades are lycopene on a carrier. Ask which carrier if allergens matter.
