Abstract
Dark red extract of abdominal skin of Bombina Orientalis was separated and purified with TLC, PLC(preparative thin layer chromatography) and column chromatography. Through the physical and chemical properties, visible and infrared spectral characteristics the third major pigment was identified as ${\alpha}$-cryptoxanthin(3-hydoroxy-${\alpha}$-carotene)
