Abstract
Data on hydrophobic adsorption equilibrium of egg yolk plasma cholesterol were obtained using Streamline Phenyl® resin in batch suspension at room temperature (25 °C). Influence of two types of salt (NaCl and Na2SO4) at four concentrations (0.0; 0.05; 0.1, and 0.2 M) on equilibrium was analyzed. Increased salt concentration reduced the amount of cholesterol adsorbed in the resin. Two isotherm models (Langmuir and a modified model based on type S-isotherm) were used to represent solid-liquid equilibrium data. The latter led to a better fit of the equilibrium data, with a 99.8% value of RSSE. A 70% reduction of the cholesterol content in the plasma was obtained with a 1:4 plasma:water dilution ratio.
