Estranes. Investigations into the total synthesis of steroids began in the 1930s shordy after the precise formula for cholesterol was estabUshed. The eadiest studies focused on equilenin (5) because of its relative stereochemical simplicity when compared to other steroid nuclei Initially, equilenin was synthesi2ed in 20 chemical steps with an overall yield of 2.7%. This synthesis helped to confirm the perhydro-l,2-cyclopentenophenanthrene ring system of...

Vitamins and Other Nutrients in Food Matrices see also Section 6.3. Food matrices are available with values assigned for vitamins, carotenoids, fatty acids, cholesterol, natural toxins, veterinary drugs, and hormone residues. The NIST food matrix SRMs for vitamins include coconut oil (SRM 1563), infant formula (SRM 1846), and baby food composite (SRM 2383) (particularly for carotenoids). Fatty acids and cholesterol are the primary analytes of interest in meat homogenate (SRM 1546) and diet...

Analysis of vitamin content of food materials appears to be a developing field. B vitamins in rice were analyzed using a mobile phase which contained pentanesulfonic acid and heptanesulfonic acid (558). Although the peaks were not sharp, the separation of the vitamins was satisfactory. Vitamin D in fortified milk has b n analyzed after removal Of cholesterol and carotenes in a preliminary cleanup (559, 540). Vitamin A has been analyzed in margarine, infant formula, and fortified milk (541, 542). Reports of the analysis of other vitamins in food are few to te but this mode of analysis can be expected to rapidly expand in the future in light of the variety of vitamin determinations in formulations which have been done (see Section VIII,F,l). 

At the end of the previous chapter we saw how to extend the idea of a standard error for a single mean to a standard error for the difference between two means. The extension of the confidence interval is similarly straightforward. Consider the placebo controlled trial in cholesterol lowering described in Example 2.3 in Chapter 2. We had an observed difference in the sample means 3cj — 3c2 of 1.4 mmol/1 and a standard error of 0.29. The formula for the 95 per cent confidence interval for the difference between two means — p.2) i -...

SAMPLE SOLUTION (a) As the structural formula in step 5 of Figure 26.10 indicates, the double bond of cholesterol unites C-5 and C-6 (steroid numbering). The corresponding carbons in the cyclization reaction of step 1 in the figure may be identified as C-7 and C-8 of squalene 2,3-epoxide (systematic IUPAC numbering).

Enzymatic hydrolysis is a nondestructive alternative to saponification for removing triglycerides in vitamin K determinations. For the simultaneous determination of vitamins A, D, E, and K in milk- and soy-based infant formulas and dairy products fortified with these vitamins (81), an amount of sample containing approximately 3.5-4.0 g of fat was digested for 1 h with lipase at 37°C and at pH 7.7. This treatment effectively hydrolyzed the glycerides, but only partially converted retinyl palmitate and a-tocopheryl acetate to their alcohol forms vitamin D and phyllo-quinone were unaffected. The hydrolysate was made alkaline in order to precipitate the fatty acids as soaps and then diluted with ethanol and extracted with pentane. A final water wash yielded an organic phase containing primarily the fat-soluble vitamins and cholesterol. 

Indyk and Woollard (195) demonstrated that the removal of cholesterol from the un-saponifiable fraction of vitamin D-supplemented whole milk powder by methanolic precipitation and filtration was an adequate cleanup procedure, making semipreparative HPLC unnecessary. This simplified procedure was made possible by connecting two analytical columns in series. The tandem columns adequately separated vitamins D2 and D3 from one another and from vitamins A and E. The analysis of infant formulas (100) required cleanup by silica solid-phase extraction to remove the minor tocopherols and tocotrienols, which constituted potential sources of interference. 

Therapy aimed at improving cardiovascular disease risk is aimed at lowering circulating lipid levels, especially that of cholesterol. Dietary intervention (low saturated triglyceride and cholesterol) is effective. Circulating cholesterol can in fact be determined from daily fat intake by the Hegstedt formula ...
