[QUOTE="jim mcnamara, post: 6414793, member: 35824"] Some questions to clear up some issues, correct anything I say that is wrong, and then we can probably help. Assuming: You have access to a chem lab, this probably is not kitchen table chemistry. decanoic acid and its salts == capric acid, caprates estrenes are a mix of phytosterol(?) derivatives, maybe like you find in tuber extracts from [I]Dioscorea villosa[/I] the Mexican yam Pick one of these as an answer 1. I want to remove decanoic acid from a mixture and keep the estranes 2. I want to keep both end products Why? Your question is kind of vague, maybe you are playing with plant extracts or are in an advanced biochem class. You know what you want but we do not understand enough to help. [/QUOTE]
