Abstract
Phytosterols are sterols present in plant cells and studies of these molecules suggested positive biological effects. Government agencies proposed to includefree phytosterols in foods as well as its determination in many products to avoid adulterations by chromatography such as Gas Chromatography (GC). Limitations and suggested alternatives for Phytosterols analysis by GC are cited in this review article as information source for future studies.
