Squalene is a natural dehydrotriterpenic hydrocarbon (C30H50) with six double bonds, known as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of phytosterol or cholesterol in plants or animals. We have briefly reviewed the natural sources for squalene and focused on the main methods and techniques to obtain and to determine it. Some of its applications in different fields of human activity are also mentioned.
角鲨烯是一种天然的脱氢三萜碳氢化合物(C30H50),含有六个双键,是植物或动物体内植物甾醇或胆固醇生物合成过程中的一种中间体。我们简要回顾了角鲨烯的天然来源,并重点介绍了获取和测定角鲨烯的主要方法和技术。还提到了它在人类不同活动领域中的一些应用。
