PREPARATIONS CONTAINING MYRISTIC ACID, PALMITIC ACID, SQUALANE AND/OR SQUALENE AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING THEM FROM MICROORGANISMS

摘要

What are proposed are novel lipophilic preparations comprising (a) from 20 to 40% by weight of myristic acid or esters thereof, (b) from 20 to 40% by weight of palmitic acid or esters thereof, (c) from 0.1 to 5% by weight of aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons and (d) less than 20% by weight of carboxylic acids or esters thereof having 12 and fewer carbons in the acyl radical and (e) less than 20% by weight of carboxylic acids or esters thereof having 16 and more carbons in the acyl radical, with the proviso that all percentages add up to 100% by weight.
