Enrichment of Supercritical Extracts in beta-Sitosterol by Fractionation Process
 Rochová, Kristina ; Sovová, Helena ; Sajfrtová, Marie ; Bártlová, Milena
The aim of this contribution was to use the extraction with supercritical CO2 coupled with fractionation of extract for preparation of extracts rich in beta-sitosterol. Phytosterols have been proved to lower serum cholesterol levels in humans and to have other benefit for human health. Supercritical extraction is a green method to separate such compounds from plants. Sea buckthorn seeds and sunflower seeds were extracted and a mathematical model was applied to determine separation factor of beta-sitosterol as minor component of extract. According to the obtained results, conditions of fractionation were set up. The most important enrichment of a part of extract from seeds with beta-sitosterol was achieved with fractionation in two separators (first separator kept at 15MPa and 50°C) and subsequent fractionation in time at the output of the second separator.
