Abstract

A new method for the quantitative determination of fucosterol in the marine algae Pelvetia siliquosa by gas chromatography was established. A HP-1 column programmed as $200^{\circ}C\;(5\;min)\;{\rightarrow}\;5/min\;{\rightarrow}\;280^{\circ}C\;(10\;min)$ was developed. The analysis of fucosterol in P. siliquosa was successfully carried out within 30 min.
