Table 3 HPLC-DAD-APCI-MS n data of xanthophyll esters extracted from red- and yellow-colored arils of cultivars of Taxus baccata L. and Taxus × media Rehder.

No.	t R (min)	Proposed structure	λ max	D/Da B II	D/Db III II	[M H]	[M] • (m/z)	[M+H] +	APCI(+)-MS n experiment
t, retention time; λ, UV/vis absorption maxima; sh, shoulder; n.d., not detected; * base peak in the APCI(+)-MS n experiment. R max Given t R an pled UV/vis data were acquired using the settings and instrumentation detailed in section 4.6, the MS data as specified in section 4.5. a D/D, ratio of absorbance at the ‘(Z)-peak’ (D) and the main absorption maximum (D). B II B II b D/Dratio of absorbance at maximum at longest wavelength (D) to D. III II, III II c In-source elimination of water ([M + H – H O] +). 2 d In-source elimination of fatty acid ([M + H – fatty acid] +). e Verified by a reference compound extracted from the flesh of Carica papaya L. f Verified by a reference compound obtained from a marigold (Tagetes sp.) extract.
