METHOD FOR EXTRACTING COMPOUNDS OF FURAN LIPIDS AND POLYHYDROXYLATED FATTY ALCOHOLS OF AVOCADO, COMPOSITION BASED ON SAID COMPOUNDS, AND THERAPEUTIC, COSMETICAL OR FOOD USE OF SAID COMPOUNDS

摘要

The invention concerns a method for selectively extracting furan lipids and polyhydroxylated fatty alcohols of avocado, characterised in that it comprises steps which consist in: preparing an unsaponifiable matter of avocado; then in subjecting the unsaponifiable matter of avocado to a step of molecular distillation using adjusted temperature and pressure means to obtain either a distillate comprising mainly furan lipids and polyhydroxylated fatty alcohols of avocado. Said method enables in particular to extract selectively furan lipids of avocado having a furan lipid content of more than 80 wt.%, even close to 98 %.
