Abstract: | The sterol composition of the cold water brown alga Agarum cribosum was determined by GC—MS. Six of the seven sterols found were identified as stigmata-5,(E)-24(28)-dien-3β-ol (fucosterol), 24-methylenecholest-5-en-3β-ol (24-methylenecholesterol), cholest-5-en-3β-ol (cholesterol), 3β-hydroxycholest-5-en-24-one (24-ketocholesterol), 24ξ-stigmasta-5,28-diene-3β,24-diol (saringosterol) and cholesta-5, 24-dien-3β-ol (desmosterol). |
