Description

The concentration of cholesterol in three types of eggs has been analyzed through the enzymatic method. The types of analyzed eggs were: conventional, pastured and organic. Thirty five samples were analyzed, the sampling has been random, and the cholesterol analysis was done by GENESYS 10S UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. Analyzes have been conducted in research laboratories of the University for Business and Technology (UBT) - Kosovo. The average of the obtained results indicates a slightly lower cholesterol concentration in the type of pasture raised eggs compared to other types.
