The synthesis and structural characterization of a series of oxides of stigmasterol is described providing a valuable series of reference standards for these oxides, analogous to the cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) which have been shown to have detrimental biological effects. Biological evaluation of the oxides of phytosterols is significant in the context of increased dietary use of phytosterols in the drive to reduce cholesterol absorption.
A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF HIGH PURITY PHYTOSTEROLS FROM DEODOURIZER DISTILLATE FROM VEGETABLE OILS

Page/Page column 6-8; 13-14, (2008/06/13)
The present invention provides an isolation process of the pure sterols from the SODD by simple acid catalyzed esterification and the separation of the reagents by distillation and water washing followed by the crystallization of phytosterols and purification. Soybean oil deodorizer distillate (SODD) and distillate from other vegetable oil refining contain free sterols, in addition to steryl esters, tocopherols squalene and unknown compounds. The process is also applicable to other vegetable oil distillate containing more than 1% phytosterols in the free form. Phytosterols thus obtained is of high purity (95-99%) and high yield (80-90%) and contains β-sitosterol, Stigmasterol and campesterol.
