METHOD FOR PRODUCING PHYTOSTEROL/FATTY ACID ESTER- CONTAINING OIL-AND-FAT COMPOSITION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing an oil-and-fat composition having a high content of phytosterols effective against absorption of cholesterols, resists to crystallization of the phytosterols and has a good taste.;SOLUTION: The method for producing a phytosterol/fatty acid ester- containing oil-and-fat composition comprises esterifying a mixture of phytosterols with oil-and-fat by using an alkali catalyst or a lipase powder catalyst in the presence of an adsorbent.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
