Enrichment of Vitamin E from crude palm oil by adsorption-desorption process

Palm oil is unique compared to other vegetable oils due to it comprises of mixture of tocopherols and tocotrienols, also known as Vitamin E. In adsorption process, silica gel and Diaion HP 20 were employed to adsorb crude palm oil (CPO). Then, selective desorption process (modified Soxhlet extractio...
