Preparasi sampel
Oil samples (1.5 g) were weighed into a small beaker
and transferred by aid of n-hexane (2 × 5 mL),
rinsing onto a silica gel column (15 g silica, column
2.5 cm i.d.).
Elution started with 75 mL n-hexane/ethyl acetate
(90:10 vol/vol) to collect the steryl ester fraction,
followed by elution with 75 mL n-hexane/diethyl
ether/ethanol (25:25:50 by vol) for collection of the
free sterol fraction.
After evaporation of the solvent, both fractions
were saponified, extracted, and derivatized
