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

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]
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.
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.

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