New York, NY -- (SBWire) -- 02/23/2017 --Sterol ester is created when sterol and a fatty acid are synthesised (esterification). Sterol Esters is the heterogeneous chemical compound that can be found in small amount almost in every cell type. Plant sterol is called phytosterols which is a collective term for plant-derived sterols and stanols that are found in the fatty tissues of plants. When plant sterol is esterified with fatty acids then it is called as plant sterol ester. The proportion of the phytosterol strength is approximately 60 percent by weight of the ester and that of the fatty acid tail approximately 40 percent by weight. Commercially, Phytosterols are colleted from vegetable oils, for instance sunflower oil, soybean oil, and oilseed rape. The phytosterols and phytostanols is esterified with fatty acids from vegetable oils by two different ways that are trans-esterification using fatty acid methylesters and direct esterification using free fatty acid. For methylester process, the very first step is preparation of fatty acid methyl esters and then inter-esterification of the fatty acid methyl esters and the phytosterols/phytostanols is done. For Free fatty acid route process, preparation of free fatty acids is done and then esterification of free fatty acids and phytosterols/phytostanols is done.
