Impact of provitamin A biofortified maize consumption on carotenoid status of Zambian children
Objectives Provitamin A carotenoid biofortified “orange” maize has been developed as a vitamin A deficiency control strategy using selective breeding for the β-carotene hydroxylase-1 gene, which increases β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, and zeaxanthin in the endosperm. We conducted a cluster-randomized...
