Extraction and enrichment of minor lipid components of palm fatty acid distillate using supercritical carbon dioxide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Currently the extraction of valuable components from oils is of growing interest. Palm fatty acid distillate is a by-product from palm oil refining process which contains valuable minor components.

Squalene Cyclization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
It has been observed that the proton, which is located at C-14 in squalene or C-13 in the "presterol cation," migrates less than 10% of the time (with a confidence level of 74%) to C-20 in lanosterol, and therefore 90% of the time (with a confidence level of 74%) to C-17 in lanosterol. If enzymatically controlled reactions are stereospecific, then at C-

Squalene through its post-squalene metabolites is a modulator of hepatic transcriptome in rabbits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Squalene is a natural bioactive triterpene and an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of sterols. To assess the effect of this compound on the hepatic transcriptome, RNA-sequencing was carried out in two groups of male New Zealand rabbits fed ...

Plasma squalene: lipoprotein distribution and kinetic analysis.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1978
Plasma squalene concentration is increased in hypertriglyceridemia. In 24 normotriglyceridemic and 12 hypertriglyceridemic subjects, whole plasma squalene correlated strongly with plasma triglyceride (r = 0.973, P < 0.001) in the latter.

Improving squalene production by enhancing the NADPH/NADP+ ratio, modifying the isoprenoid-feeding module and blocking the menaquinone pathway in Escherichia coli

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Squalene is currently used widely in the food, cosmetics, and medicine industries. It could also replace petroleum as a raw material for fuels. Microbial fermentation processes for squalene production have been emerging over recent years.

Study of the Effect of Squalene Epoxidase Activity on Squalene Biosynthesis by Yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae VGSh-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The researchers of this study investigated the biosynthesis of squalene by the yeast S. cerevisiae VGSH-2 through the activity of squalene epoxidase, which is a key enzyme in the conversion of squalene to ergosterol.

Production of squalene in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the research and development of sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels. Using photosynthetic microorganisms to produce such alternatives is advantageous, since they can achieve direct conversion ...

Fate of intravenously administered squalene and plant sterols in human subjects

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
We have studied metabolism of plant sterols and squalene administered intravenously in the form of lipid emulsion mimicking chylomicrons (CM). The CM-like lipid emulsion was prepared by dissolving squalene in commercially available Intralipid®.
