| dc.description.abstract | Liver oils of some deep sea sharks mainly Certrophorus sp.found under a depth of 300-1000 m. in the Pacific, North Atlantic and Indian Ocean contain 85 to 90% unsaponifiable matter which contains the hydrocarbon squalene. Squalene and its hydrogenated product squalane are used for several decads as base for cosmetic products. Realizing its importance, a method for extraction, isolation and purification of squalene was developed. | en_US |
