Analysis of phytosterols in foods [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 2006
Phytosterols are bioactive compounds, one of their most studied and outstanding properties being their cholesterol-lowering activity. This explains the growing interest in the phytosterol contents of foods as either intrinsic or added components. The different steps (extraction, saponification, clean up, chromatographic determination) of plant sterol ...
