Description

Improve the method for the smell of astaxanthin-containing extract
Technical field
The present invention relates to improve the method and the astaxanthin-containing extract of smell that utilized improvement that this method obtains of the smell of astaxanthin-containing extract.
Background technology
Known astaxanthin is a kind of of red carotenoid, has strong antioxidation.Therefore, be used as food coloring, cosmetics, health food, pharmaceuticals etc.Except the astaxanthin of chemical synthesis, the astaxanthin that comes from natural products is arranged also.Astaxanthin from natural products extracts from shrimps such as krill, red shrimp, phaffiafhodozyma, algae etc.But, because the content astaxanthin in shrimps such as krill or the yeast is low, therefore, can not be from wherein extracting astaxanthin efficiently.In addition, algae can change with external environment, and sporangiocystization takes place, and accumulates astaxanthin in frond.Therefore, utilizing algae to produce the research of astaxanthin.
Owing to contain 2 hydroxyls in the astaxanthin molecule, so its monoesters that often forms to combine aliphatic acid on the hydroxyl or the form of diester exist.Especially the monoesters body is in the majority, and the episome that does not combine with aliphatic acid is a denier.This ester body is compared with episome, and the stability to light and oxygen etc. is high usually, operation easily on making, and in addition, according to circumstances, absorption in animal body is also good.
But the various chemical behaviors of the fatty acid ester of lutein such as astaxanthin are with similar as the triglycerides and the diglyceride of the neutral lipid with the ester bond that forms with aliphatic acid.And, produce in the algae of lutein, also produce a large amount of above-mentioned neutral lipids simultaneously.Therefore, if with common organic solvent extracting lutein, then have than the more neutral lipid of lutein content and extracted simultaneously.That is what, be recovered to is the neutral lipid that contains low concentration (10 quality % are following) lutein.Therefore, in order to obtain the astaxanthin of high concentration, the similar each other neutral lipid of chemical behavior need be separated with the fatty acid ester of astaxanthin.In addition, contain the neutral lipid of low concentration (10 quality % are following) lutein, with the foul smell that comes from raw material, removing this foul smell also is being important aspect the expansion purposes.
As the method that from a large amount of greases (neutral lipid), reclaims lutein, the method that has the crystallization of utilizing to reclaim.For example, patent documentation 1 discloses the astaxanthin method that crystallization is made with extra care from the chloroformic solution that contains astaxanthin that makes.In addition, patent documentation 2 discloses the lutein that makes the hydrolysis of lutein diester in the oil composition that extracts and change episome into from the petal of marigold, the method for utilizing crystallisation to make with extra care then.But, use the problems such as toxicity of the crystallisation of chloroform owing to chloroform, be unsuitable in the manufacturing process of food, using.In addition, crystallisation also exist the material demand of wanting crystallization to reach the above concentration of normal concentration, the material beyond the desirable material may crystallization, the problems such as purity reduction of crystal when target substance is difficult to form crystal structure.In addition, more than any one method, all be the method that makes the crystallization of lutein episome, thereby can not obtain the mixture of fatty acid ester of lutein.
The method (with reference to patent documentation 3~5) that will directly reclaim as precipitation with the form of ester admixture as a kind of fatty acid ester of lutein of carotenoid is disclosed.In the patent documentation 3, make the fatty acid ester of lutein that derives from plant be dissolved in the warm acetone and after removing sediment, acetone is removed in distillation, and the residual fraction that obtains is dissolved in warm propyl alcohol and/or warm butanols, makes its precipitation after the cooling and makes with extra care.In the patent documentation 4, Flos Tagetis Erectae extract is dissolved in warm ethanol, after removing by filter insoluble matter,, obtains fatty acid ester of lutein as precipitation with the filtrate cooling.In the patent documentation 5, will utilize the fatty acid ester of lutein of hydrocarbon solvent extraction to mix, make the impurity dissolving and after removing, obtain the trans-lutein fatty acid ester with ethanol.So, the various methods that are used for refining fatty acid ester of lutein are arranged, but it is still indeterminate whether fully to remove the foul smell that comes from raw material.
Studying the method for from carotenoid pigment, removing the foul smell that comes from raw material.For example, in the patent documentation 6, the material that will contain carotenoid pigment obtains solid matter with water-miscible organic solvent, use fat-soluble organic solvent mixed processing again.But, consider in food etc. and use, preferably do not use fat-soluble organic solvent.In addition, in the patent documentation 7~9, will contain the material hydrolysis of carotenoid pigment after, add carotenoid slightly solubility organic solvent (for example, ethanol, supercritical carbon dioxide) and wash.These are the methods that reclaim episome carotenoid, rather than reclaim the method for the carotenoid that exists with the ester admixture state.
