Abstract
⺠Pigments of chicory, dandelion, garden rocket, and wild rocket were examined. ⺠Xanthophylls, carotenes and chlorophylls were identified and quantified. ⺠Tested species were moderately rich in xanthophylls, primarily lutein. ⺠α-carotene was detected in garden and wild rocket, and β-carotene in all species. ⺠The highest content of all analysed constituents was found in garden rocket.
