Extraction and purification of phytosterols mixture from Palm Fatty Acid Distillate (PFAD) using multistage extraction processes

Phytosterols are among the bioactive compounds naturally present in vegetable oils and their by-products or derivatives. A phytosterol resource (PSR), solid by-product from the extraction of vitamin E in palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD), contains 2%-4% (w/w) total sterols. Therefore, the extraction...
