Abstract:

5β-CHOLESTAN-3β-OL was determined as the major steroids in marine sponge -Hymeniacidon perleve- with a level of ca. 1 000 ppm. Cholesterol was fou
nd in the 5β-CHOLESTAN-3β-OL crystal using 1H NMR spectroscopy, while GC-MS failed to obtain the same results. Using 1H NMR spectroscopy, standard mixtures of  5β-CHOLESTAN-3β-OL and cholesterol were studied to accurately quantify the steroids that are difficult to be separated by chromatography.

Key words: NMR, quantity, steroid, marine sponge, Chromatography, Hymeniacidon perleve
