Policosanol market: introduction
Policosanol is an alcohol extracted from sugar cane wax used to reduce serum lipids. Policosanol used to be the Cuban extract of sugarcane wax. Policosanol consists of long-chain alcohols. It is available in various sources, such as beeswax, rice bran wax and many other plant and insect waxes. Policosanol derived from these sources is also referred to as a policosanol-like product because of its different effects on the human body.
Policosanol is extracted using two different methods: solvent extraction and supercritical CO2 extraction. Most manufacturers have started using the supercritical CO2 extraction process because of the purest form of policosanol obtained by this process. This is mainly used for dietary supplements, nutraceuticals, food processing or cosmeceuticals.
The sugarcane market will gain ground due to the demand for policosanol
Sugar prices have fallen, which has led to a decline in sugarcane. This has led to a development of the use of sugar cane in various industries. In Cuba, research institutes have shown, after losses of the sugar industry in collaboration with private laboratories, how policosanol from sugarcane wax is used to control cholesterol in the human body. This has led many manufacturers to market it for the use of policosanol in nutritional supplements. Policosanol can be obtained from a variety of sources, but Policosanol extract from sugar cane wax is the most valuable policosanol on the market.
