EFFECT OF SOLVENT THE SELECTIVE SEPARATION OF PHYTOSTEROLS USING ZEOLITE

Reaktor, 2006
The effect of organic solvent on zeolite adsorption of sterols mixiture containing almost the same percentage of campesterol and B-sitosterol was investigated. Although pentane was found to give the highest adsorption rate than other solvents, but it was

Optimization of Ultrasound‐Assisted Extraction of Seabuckthorn (Hippophae salicifolia) Seed Oil With the Use of Response Surface Methodology

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐assisted extraction (UAE) of seabuckthorn seed oil enhanced yield (17.95%), antioxidant activity (IC50: 5.25 μg/mL), and carotenoid content (266.63 mg/100 g). The oil, rich in unsaturated fatty acids (83.15%), exhibited superior quality, thermal stability, and potential applications in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, making UAE a ...

Effects of diet and metamorphosis upon the sterol composition of the butterfly Morpho peleides

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Whole body sterol metabolism in insects has seldom been studied. We were able to design an appropriate study at a butterfly farm in Belize. We collected six larvas of butterfly (Morpho peleides), their food (leaves of Pterocarpus bayessii), and their ...

Seedling resistance and chemical defenses against Psylliodes chrysocephala: the roles of seed age and sinapinic acid in Sinapis alba and Brassica napus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

A sterol panel for rare lipid disorders: sitosterolemia, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome

Journal of Lipid Research
Disease-specific sterols accumulate in the blood of patients with several rare lipid disorders. Biochemical measurement of these sterols is important for correct diagnosis and sometimes monitoring of treatment.

Serum plant sterols and biliary cholesterol secretion in humans

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Ratios of cholestanol, campesterol, and sitosterol to cholesterol in serum are known to reflect cholesterol absorption efficiency. Here, a possible link between these ratios and biliary secretion rates of cholesterol was investigated.

High dietary intake of phytosterol esters decreases carotenoids and increases plasma plant sterol levels with no additional cholesterol lowering

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
The objective of this study was to measure the effects on serum lipids and plasma phytosterols of 6.6 g/day phytosterols from three foods (bread, breakfast cereal, and spread) consumed for 12 weeks compared with a diet that was not enriched with ...

The role of soluble fiber intake in patients under highly effective lipid-lowering therapy

Nutrition Journal, 2011
Background It has been demonstrated that statins can increase intestinal sterol absorption. Augments in phytosterolemia seems related to cardiovascular disease.
