Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Policosanol Contents of Beeswax, Sugar Cane and Wheat Extracts Food Chemistry, Volume 95, Issue 2 , March 2006, Pages 312-318 Abstract: Policosanol (PC) is a mixture of high molecular weight aliphatic primary alcohols. Currently, a number of dietary supplements containing PC are commercially available in the US market. The majority of these products are prepared from beeswax or sugar cane extracts. The main objective of this study was to compare the PC contents and compositions of beeswax, sugar cane and wheat as PC sources. . . The total PC contents of brown beeswax were about 20 and 45 times higher than those of the WGO-solids and sugar cane peel, respectively. . .
