Abstract A quantitative method has been developed for the determination of α- and β-carotenes and β-cryptoxanthin, the provitamin A carotenoids in orange juice. The carotenoids were separated by high performance liquid chromatography on a single column in approximately 30 min. The procedure may also be used to measure zeta-carotene and α-cryptoxanthin.
