Destraction of lipids from isolates of microbial protein

Abstract
It has been demonstrated, that supercritical CO2 supported by ethanol as a selective component is able to extract lipids from isolates of microbial protein up to a remain of less than 1% already at 11 to 14 MPa and 39 to 44 C. CO2 and ethanol can easily by separated. Compared with the conventional extraction of lipids by 70% isopropanol in water the destraction has the advantage that the resulted microbial protein is obtained in a greater yield and with only a little decrease in solubility.
