(-)-β-Sitosterol

Description:

(-)-β-Sitosterol is a plant sterol, a type of phytosterol, characterized by its structural similarity to cholesterol. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform. The compound has a molecular formula of C29H50O and features a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 3-position of the steroid nucleus, which contributes to its biological activity. (-)-β-Sitosterol is known for its potential health benefits, including cholesterol-lowering properties, anti-inflammatory effects, and possible roles in supporting prostate health. It is commonly found in various plant sources, including nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils. In addition to its nutritional benefits, (-)-β-Sitosterol is also utilized in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries for its emollient and stabilizing properties. Its safety profile is generally favorable, making it a popular ingredient in dietary supplements and functional foods aimed at promoting cardiovascular health.

β-Sitosterol - 70%

Controlled Product

CAS: 83-46-5

β-Sitosterol - 70% is a phytosterol, which is a type of plant sterol similar in structure to cholesterol. This compound is derived primarily from plant sources such as nuts, seeds, fruits, and vegetables. Its molecular structure allows it to compete with cholesterol for absorption in the digestive system, leading to reduced cholesterol levels in the body.

b-Sitosterol - 40%

Controlled Product

CAS: 83-46-5

b-Sitosterol is a sterol that is found in plants and animals. It has been shown to reduce the incidence of skin tumor formation when applied topically. b-Sitosterol also has hypoglycemic effects, which may be due to its ability to bind with p-hydroxybenzoic acid, an inhibitor of glucose absorption. This compound also has a matrix effect on the skin, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the production of collagenase, an enzyme involved in the breakdown of collagen. b-sitosterol also has antiinflammatory properties that have been shown using analytical methods such as metal chelate. Studies have shown that b-sitosterols are natural compounds that are found in high concentrations in beta-sitosterol.
