Plasma plant sterols serve as poor markers of cholesterol absorption in man[S]
The validation of the use of plasma plant sterols as a marker of cholesterol absorption is frail. Nevertheless, plant sterol concentrations are routinely used to describe treatment-induced changes in cholesterol absorption.

Serum plant sterols and biliary cholesterol secretion in humans
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.
