Sažetak
Brown algae comprise a considerable number of the secondary bioactive metabolites, including sterols which are reported to be unique in terms of their structural and functional diversity (Hannan et al., 2020) and numerous health benefits (Plaza et al., 2008). Nowadays, in order to provide effective, reproducible and rapid extraction of lipophilic compounds, a supercritical CO2 extraction emerges as an alternative technique with many benefits over conventionally used organic solvents (Patel et al., 2020). The current study aimed to explore the potential of supercritical CO2 for the extraction of sterols from the Mediterranean brown alga Cystoseira barbata, whose lipophilic fraction is described as a rich source of sterols, mainly fucosterol (Cvitković et al., 2021).
