Process for releasing and extracting phosphatides from a phosphatide-containing matrix

摘要

A process for releasing and extracting phosphatides from a phosphatide-containing matrix. The process includes (i) contacting the phosphatide-containing matrix with a solvent and a metal salt to release phosphatides from the matrix and form a phosphatide enriched solvent portion and a phosphatide depleted matrix portion, (ii) separating the phosphatide enriched solvent portion from the phosphatide depleted matrix portion, and (iii) recovering the phosphatides from the phosphatide enriched solvent portion.
