Preparation of pure methyl esters by counter double current distribution

C R Scholfield et al. Lipids. 1966 May.

Abstract

Counter double current distribution with continuous stills for solvent and product recovery and an acetonitrile-hexane solvent system is a convenient method for preparative isolation of individual fatty methyl esters. Preparations of pure methyl linoleate from safflower esters and a methyl arachidonate concentrate from hog liver lipids are described.
