Natural sources of phytosterols and production factors that modify them
(2016)
Currently phytosterols are added to processed foods, which increase their cost and therefore limits its use. This manuscript aims to identify foods that are a natural source of phytosterols, as well as analyze how the ...
Quantitative analysis of phytosterols in Aristotelia chilensis (Maqui) leaves using GC/MS
(Universiti Putra Malaysia, 2016)
© 2008 IFRJ.The prevalence of metabolic syndrome, hypertension, heart disease and diabetes has been increasing rapidly in Chile in recent years. The rate of increase has paralleled the replacement of traditional Mediterranean ...
Metabolic Benefits of Phytosterols: Chemical, Nutritional, and Functional Aspects
(2023)
Plant sterols encompass phytosterols and phytostanols, with over 250 iden-tified types. They’ve garnered attention in the food industry due to their potential hypocholesterolemic effects. This manuscript offers a current ...
Dynamics of phytosterols content and concentration in sunflower grains
(Csiro Publishing, 2018-05)
Phytosterols are allies in the control of plasma cholesterol and in preventing cardiovascular diseases. As vegetable oils are the main source of phytosterols, characterizing environmental factors that determine phytosterols ...
Production and biotransformation of phytosterol microdispersions to produce 4-androstene-3,17-dione
(Humana Press Inc., 2017)
The current state of knowledge regarding phytosterols biotransformation to produce the steroid intermediate 4-androstene-3,17-dione (AD) shows different technologies. However, the initial concentration of phytosterols in ...
Process analysis and global optimization for the microencapsulation of phytosterols by spray drying
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2017-08-08)
The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the microencapsulation of phytosterols by spray drying. The independent variables were drying air inlet temperature, atomization air flowrate, feed flowrate, ...
Recovery of Phytosterols from Sunflower Oil Deodorizer Distillates
(Springer, 2004-05)
Phytosterols are usually recovered by crystallization from the deodorizer distillate (DD) of vegetable oils. In this work, the impact of the principal process variables (viz., solvents and cosolvents, cooling rate, ...
A process parameters dataset for the extrusion 3D printing of nutraceutical oral dosage forms formulated with monoglycerides oleogels and phytosterols mixtures
(Elsevier, 2020-02-16)
We report the parameter settings used in different 3D printing tests carried out to evaluate the production of nutraceutical oral forms by using mixtures of monoglycerides oleogels and phytosterols as printing materials. ...
Distribution and sources of phytosterols in coastal and river sediments of South-central Chile
(2014)
Phytosterols are potential endocrine-disrupting compounds. Quantification of phytosterols was carried out in sediments from four coastal zones and two rivers in south-central Chile. Sterol concentrations were determined ...
Common sources and composition of phytosterols and their estimated intake by the population in the city of São Paulo, Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2013-06-01)
Objective: Phytosterols have been used alone, or combined with lipid-altering drugs, to reduce cholesterol levels and the burden of cardiovascular disease. Considerable variation in the composition of phytosterols exists ...
