Solvent extraction of the aerial portions of Lycopersicon pennellii afforded a dark green lipid extract with bitter taste and unpleasant odour. This total lipid was separted into colorless, odourless, bitter and nonbitter glucolipid fractions by liquid/liquid partition. This method was highly successful in the scale up production of bitter and nonbitter glucolipids.
