Popis: The tocotrienols (T3) are the vitamin E family members with excellent antioxidant properties and prevent autocatalytic lipid peroxidation. Palm Fatty Acid Distillate (PFAD) is a volatile organic material obtained during palm oil refining and consists of tocol (α-tocopherol/T, α, γ, β, and δ- tocotrienol/T3) up to 0.8% and represents a potential source for recovering these valuable compounds. Various methods have been studied to extract vitamin E; however, only a few are commercially available. To fulfil the need for technology for recovering these minor components, leaching the tocotrienol from solidified PFAD was carried out. In this study, the fatty acid of PFAD was saponified using NaHCOThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13197-022-05402-7.
