Freie und gebundene Sterine in rohen und raffinierten Palmölen,Teil III: Verhalten der sterinhaltigen Lipoproteine bei der Raffination

Free and Bound Sterols in Raw and Refined Palm Oils, Part III: Behaviour of Sterol Containing Lipoproteins during Refining Studies have been carried out about the behaviour of sterol containing lipoproteins during refining. By neutralization and bleaching they are partly separated together with the free fatty acids. One part, however, is splitted mainly during deodorization. Thus content and composition of lipoproteins are changed during refining. The sterols released from lipoproteins are determined together with free sterols. Because of their high cholesterol content increased cholesterol values can be found in sterol determination of refined palm oils.
