A kind of method of from the broken end of tobacco, extracting antioxidant
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of from the broken end of tobacco, extracting antioxidant, particularly utilize molecular distillation technique to combine with solvent extraction, from the broken end of tobacco, extract the method for tobacco antioxidant.
The antioxidant raw material sources of the present invention's preparation also will be applied in the tobacco product in tobacco, and will be safe, be a kind of novel tobacco antioxidants.
Background technology
In recent years, in the world in the more and clearer and more definite cigarette composition to human body harm maximum be not nicotine, but free radical.Contain the very high free radical of a large amount of activity in the cigarette smoke, about smoking and healthy discover that the free radical in the cigarette smoke is the principal element that causes atherosclerotic, miocardial infarction and hypertension etc.In addition, the free radical in the flue gas is also relevant with a lot of diseases such as aging, PUD D, gastric ulcer, Alzheimer disease, the gloomy disease of platinum and tumour.Therefore will prevent and treat the disease that causes because of smoking, the free radical that should reduce in the flue gas enters in the human body in fact.
Reach the purpose that reduces the free radical in the tobacco, can consider in tobacco, to add proper quantity of antioxidant, can reach the effect of removing free radical.Antioxidant refers to suppress the material of free-radical oxidation speed, the material that just can remove free radical and prevent the free radical activity.
The general antioxidant that uses is mainly butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA), dibutyl hydroxy toluene (BHT) and n-propyl gallate synthetized oxidation preventive agents such as (PG) at present.Yet zoopery shows: there is potential harm in synthetized oxidation preventive agent to the health of human body, and side effect increases on the contrary.Therefore, more and more noticeable from the natural anti-oxidation of plant.The natural plant that contains antioxidant has rosemary,, soybean, mango, thorn to add five etc. in the relevant report, the natural commodity of external supply the market have 47 kinds of Rosmarinus officinalis extract, Sage extract, Radix Glycyrrhizae polyphenoils, Tea Polyphenols, ellagic acid, sunflower seed extracts etc., and the application in tobacco product has very big development prospect.And domestic present prevailing antioxidant still is synthetic butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA), dibutyl hydroxy toluene (BHT) and n-propyl gallate (PG) and ditert-butylhydro quinone (TBH Q), the relevant report of natural Products Development and application is actually rare.
Tobacco is as a kind of natural plants, and existing a large amount of reported in literature wherein contains antioxidant composition.But have nothing to do temporarily at present in therefrom extract its antioxidant report from tobacco material.The present invention by adopting corresponding physics and chemical method and means, extracts the antioxidant in the tobacco as breakthrough.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is by extraction separation antioxidant from the broken end of tobacco and as the application of tobacco additive agent in perfuming cigarette, antioxidant among the present invention is joined in cigarette shreds or the filter tip, can reduce the activity of free radical in the cigarette smoke, reach the effect that reduces free radical, simultaneously can improve the flue gas quality, strengthen and enrich mouthfeel, reduce excitant, reduce assorted gas.
The present invention makes by the following method: the broken end of tobacco → solvent heating and refluxing extraction → concentrate → molecular clock → acidifying → extraction → concentrate → antioxidant product.
Be characterized in: directly adopt the broken end of tobacco in solvent refluxing, to obtain to contain the extract of antioxidant, carrying out molecular clock after concentrating handles, the light component that obtains is carried out adding organic solvent after the acidifying, carry out hybrid extraction with 1: 0.5 to 1: 0.8 ratio, merge organic phase, concentrate the back and obtain lurid product, product yield 10%-15%, the content of antioxidant in the product (main component is dibutyl hydroxy toluene (BHT)) is greater than 6.8%.
The invention has the advantages that: use extraction that molecularly distilled carries out the broken last antioxidant of the tobacco antioxidant in the broken end of separate tobacco first, raw material is easy to get, and process route is short, and process is controlled, is fit to industrial production.Because raw material sources in tobacco, are more suitable for being applied on cigarette shreds and the filter tip as cigarette additive, reach the effect of removing free radical, for tobacco flavoring provides a kind of novel, important natural anti-oxidation material.

Accompanying drawing 1 is the process chart of extracting method of the present invention.
The specific embodiment
To method afford further instruction of the present invention, but do not place restrictions on the present invention below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
Antioxidant is extracted in preparation from the broken end of tobacco system carries out work according to the schematic flow sheet in the accompanying drawing.
1. tobacco broken last 1.0 kilograms (originating from Anhui), after in small, broken bits, be one or more solvents that mix that add at 1: 8 in ethanol with the certain proportion preparation, water, propane diols, the glycerine by material and solvent ratios, put into 50 liters of round-bottomed flasks that reflux condensate device is housed, temperature heating and refluxing extraction with 40 ℃-90 ℃, time is 2-4 hour, pour out extract, repeat once, merge extracted twice liquid, reclaim solvent in Rotary Evaporators, the input amount at the broken end of tobacco is 1: 7 to 1: 9 with the ratio of the quantum of output of extract.Obtain containing the extract (being designated as CA) of tobacco antioxidant.
2. the extract that contains the tobacco antioxidant (CA) with above-mentioned gained concentrates, and concentrated ratio is 1: 0.2-0.7 obtains containing the concentrate (being designated as CB) of tobacco antioxidant.
3. after the concentrate that contains the tobacco antioxidant (CB) of above-mentioned gained being separated at least twice with molecular distillation apparatus, collect light component (being designated as CC).The temperature of molecular clock and pressure condition be, primary temperature is between 55 ℃-65 ℃, and pressure is less than 1-10Pa, and secondary temperature is between 65 ℃-75 ℃, and pressure is less than 1-10Pa.
4. the light component (CC) of above-mentioned gained is used citric acid, malic acid, the organic acid of one or more mixing in the glacial acetic acid carries out acidifying, gets acidifying solution (being designated as CD).
5. the acidifying solution (CD) with above-mentioned gained extracts with one or more mixed organic solvents in ether, benzinum, n-hexane, the carrene.The ratio of organic solvent and acidifying solution is to extract in 1: 0.5 to 1: 0.8, merges organic phase, concentrates the back and obtains lurid product, and product yield 10%-15% obtains containing the finished product (being designated as CE) of tobacco antioxidant.The main chemical compositions of contained antioxidant is dibutyl hydroxy toluene (BHT) in this product, and content is greater than 6.8%.
