TY - T1 - Variation of phytosterols and steryl ferulates in wheat grains and fractions SN - / UR - URN:ISBN:978-952-10-8347-1; http://hdl.handle.net/10138/37424 T3 - A1 - Nurmi, Tanja A2 - PB - Helsingin yliopisto Y1 - 2012 LA - en AB - Phytosterols are plant-derived bioactive compounds known for their serum cholesterol-lowering ability and other health benefits. Phytosterols may occur as free sterols or various conjugates, e.g. ferulic acid esters. Cereals are an important source of natural phytosterols and sterol conjugates. However, the variation in occurrence and distribution of these compounds in cereal grains has not been adequately studied. As a part of the EU FP6 project HEALTHGRAIN, the effects of genotype, environment... VO - IS - SP - OP - KW - elintarviketieteet N1 - PP - ER -
