Phytosterol (Soya Sterols) (CAS No.: 83-46-5)

Phytosterols, which encompass plant sterols and stanols, are steroid compounds similar to cholesterol which occur in plants and vary only in carbon side chains and/or presence or absence of a double bond. Stanols are saturated sterols, having no double bonds in the sterol ring structure. More than 200 sterols and related compounds have been identified.[1] Free phytosterols extracted from oils are insoluble in water, relatively insoluble in oil, and soluble in alcohols.
