A quantitative method, using chemically bonded C18 silica gel HPTLC plates, automated band-wise sample application, and automated visible-mode densitometry, has been developed for the determination of the carotenoid pigment lutein in nutrition supplements consumed to reduce the risk of macular degeneration. Three products containing 20 mg or 6 mg of lutein as the free alcohol or dipalmitate ester plus other ingredients were analyzed. Comparison with a lutein reference standard revealed that recoveries ranged from 112 to 247% relative to the stated label value. Accuracy was validated by analysis of a spiked blank and a second certified lutein standard, and precision by performing replicate analysis. Accuracy was found to be within 0.1% and 0.4% of theoretical values, and precision was 1.59% relative standard deviation.
