In this study, phytosterol content and fatty acid composition of grape seeds from fourteen different cultivars produced in Korea were determined. Although the total phytosterol contents depended upon the cultivars, the major phytosterol was β-sitosterol (64.9~119.3 mg/100 g) in all samples. The fatty acid composition of the grape seeds were analyzed as palmitic (16:
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
