Description

A kind of from crude extracts containing ester astaxanthin the method for refining astaxanthin
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of from crude extracts containing ester astaxanthin the method for refining astaxanthin, the particularly method that contains refining astaxanthin in the ester astaxanthin crude extract that from the unit cell algae, yeast and the fishery products waste that contain astaxanthin, obtains through methods such as organic solvent extraction and flocculations.
Background technology
Astaxanthin (Astaxanthin) belongs to the terpenes unsaturated compound, is a kind of keto-acid carotenoid, and its chemical name is 3,3 ,-dihydroxyl-β, and β ,-carotene-4, the 4.-diketone, molecular formula is C 40H 52O 4, relative molecular mass is 596.86.Astaxanthin has very strong oxidation-resistance and removes the ability of free radical, its health to human body plays an important role, can prevent the oxidized damage of tissue, cell and DNA effectively, therefore be widely used in industries such as food, medicine, makeup and healthcare products.
The industrial production astaxanthin is based on chemosynthesis, and its technology is very ripe.But, become the research focus to from the organism of astaxanthin-containing, extracting astaxanthin along with the progressively raising of people's living standard and environmental consciousness.And in the high biology of content astaxanthin, like rain giving birth to haematococcus pulvialis, phaffiafhodozyma etc., the astaxanthin great majority are to exist with ester class form, like rain the astaxanthin of giving birth to the dibasic acid esters form that just contains 70% monoesters and 25% in the haematococcus pulvialis.
The at present domestic technology of extracting astaxanthin from the organism of astaxanthin-containing mainly concentrates on slightly puies forward the aspect, as the employing flocculence extraction method of introducing in the patent 02135919.9 from chitin factory process waste water; From fresh shrimp shell and huge legendary turtle shrimp shell, adopt acid to add organic solvent extration among patent 02122565.6 and the 200810236028.X; Adopt supercritical extraction etc. in the patent 200910102291.4 from Haematocoocus Pluvialls, it is lower that these methods make finished product astaxanthin purity, the highlyest can only reach 60%.In addition, the Liu Li of Northeast Forestry University Na (Northeast Forestry University's master thesis, 2006) though make product purity obtain the raising of certain amplitude through steps such as silica gel column chromatography and crystallizations, silica gel column chromatography technology is difficult for scale amplifies, the difficult industrialization demands that adapts to.
Because the restriction of Technology, the astaxanthin commodity that extract from organism of domestic sale mostly are effective contents at 1~10% thick finished product.Therefore but developing a kind of technology of extracting high purity astaxanthin suitability for industrialized production has boundless prospect.
Summary of the invention
In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of from crude extracts containing ester astaxanthin the method for refining astaxanthin, this method have operation steps simple, can large-scale industrial production, characteristics such as environmental protection.
The present invention adopts following technical scheme: adopt crude extracts containing ester astaxanthin as raw material, carry out the operation of following steps:
Saponification: contain in the crude extract of ester astaxanthin at 2~100kg, add 0.004~0.04% EDTA, 0.002~0.1% antioxidant, volume ratio and be the methanol solution or the sodium hydroxide ethanolic soln of the potassium hydroxide of 1~4: 2 10g/L, controlled temperature is 0~60 ℃, stirred 0.5~12 hour, add 2~10 times of corresponding methyl alcohol of volume or ethanol after the saponification again and remove impurity by 0.45 μ m membrane filtration, and with corresponding methyl alcohol or washing with alcohol filter membrane impurity till color is turned white, merge saponification liquor and washings;
Resin purification: be adsorbed onto nonpolar with the flow velocity of 0.5~2BV/h the mixed solution of saponification liquor and washings or the low-pole macroporous adsorbent resin on, with 2BV distilled water or deionized water wash-out, use the eluent wash-out again, the control flow velocity is 0.2~1BV/h, collects the red solution of astaxanthin-containing;
Crystal refining: in the astaxanthin-containing red solution of collecting, 10~50% add de-salted water or deionized water by volume, carrying out crystallization at vacuum state, 30~60 ℃ the time, is to stop in 1~50: 100 o'clock to the solid-liquid volume ratio, when controlled temperature is reduced to-10~4 ℃, educated brilliant 2~24 hours, 3000~7000g is centrifugal then, uses the deionized water wash secondary again, collects crystal, vacuum-drying 4~12 hours in the time of 30~60 ℃ again obtains the finished product.
Antioxidant is a butyl hydroxy anisol (BHA), 2 in the described saponification step, one or more in 6-di-t-butyl hydroxytoluene (BHT), S-WAT, sodium bisulfite, Sodium Pyrosulfite, the Sulfothiorine.
Eluent is one or more of acetone, chloroform, ethyl acetate solution in the described resin purification step.
Resin in the described resin purification step is used Ethanol Treatment in advance, because macroporous resin adsorption is the material of molecular state, molecular state impurity is transferred to be dissolved in ethanol, thereby easily be taken away by ethanol eluate, recovers the adsorptive capacity of resin.
In addition, the mother liquor that centrifugal process produces in the last crystal refining step can enter the upper prop absorption again of resin purification step once more; Do not dissolve in the resin purification wash-out when requiring and carry out secondary recrystallization in solvent when purity reaches, thereby further improve product purity, the waste liquid that reduces contaminate environment produces.
The present invention has the following advantages:
(1) contain in the organism of ester astaxanthin, astaxanthin with the existing of monoesters and dibasic acid esters form, by saponification step, makes these astaxanthin esters become the astaxanthin of free shape mostly, and follow-up being further purified laid the foundation; (2) saponification step has added a certain amount of EDTA among the present invention, with the Fe in the astaxanthin crude extract 3+, Cu 2+Deng metal ion-chelant, can slow down the speed of astaxanthin oxidation; Also add a certain amount of antioxidant in addition, prevented the oxidation of astaxanthin effectively; (3) operations such as saponification, absorption, crystallization are combined effectively, some unnecessary steps such as silica gel column chromatography etc. have been removed, simple and the easily amplification of step has significantly improved astaxanthin product yield and purity, and the batch processing amount also meets industrial production requirement; (4) solve the handling problem of crystalline mother solution effectively, improved product yield.
In sum, the present invention have operation steps simple, can large-scale industrial production, characteristics such as environmental protection, and final astaxanthin purity and yield are higher.
