Detailed Description
The following describes specific embodiments of the present invention in detail. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating and illustrating the invention, are not intended to limit the invention.
In the present invention, the term "polarity" refers chemically to a covalent bond or the non-uniformity of charge distribution in a covalent molecule. If the charge distribution is not uniform, the bond or molecule is said to be polar; if uniform, it is referred to as nonpolar. The polarity of the solvent can be judged according to the dielectric constant of the solvent, and the larger the dielectric constant is, the larger the polarity is.
In the present invention, the inventors found that EPA has different content distribution in various lipid compounds (such as free fatty acid, fatty glyceride, glycolipid, phospholipid, membrane lipid, etc.), and it is understood that these lipid compounds having different physicochemical properties and molecular structures have different biological activities.
In one aspect, the invention provides a method for preparing EPA-enriched microalgae grease with different polarities, comprising the following steps: extracting microalgae biomass by an organic solvent for at least two times, and separating the extracted materials to obtain microalgae grease and raffinate after each extraction;
wherein, the 1+n-th organic solvent extraction takes raffinate obtained by separating the n-th organic solvent extraction as a raw material, and the dielectric constant of the organic solvent used in each extraction is sequentially increased;
wherein n is an integer not less than 1.
It is understood that the number of extractions may be selected according to practical needs, for example, 2, 3, 4, 5 or more extractions may be performed, and the dielectric constant of the organic solvent used for each extraction increases sequentially. For example, when the number of extractions is 2, the dielectric constant of the organic solvent used for the second extraction is greater than that of the organic solvent used for the first extraction. For another example, when the number of extractions is 3, the dielectric constant of the organic solvent used in the first extraction is smaller than that of the organic solvent used in the second extraction, and the dielectric constant of the organic solvent used in the second extraction is smaller than that of the organic solvent used in the third extraction. And in other times of extraction, selecting an organic solvent according to the same rule to finish extraction of the microalgae grease.
It will be appreciated that when the number of extractions is small, a certain amount of microalgae grease and EPA may remain in the raffinate obtained from the last extraction, and as the number of extractions increases, the amount of microalgae grease and EPA remaining in the raffinate obtained from the last extraction may be reduced or even reduced, but this may result in an increase in the amount of organic solvent, an increase in the treatment steps, etc., and there may be a case where the amount of extracted microalgae grease and EPA is small. Therefore, the person skilled in the art can determine the appropriate number of extractions, preferably 2-4, according to the actual need.

3) And adding a polar organic solvent II into the raffinate II, performing third extraction, and separating to obtain microalgae grease III and raffinate III.

In the present invention, the dielectric constant of the nonpolar organic solvent is preferably 4.5 or less, and the nonpolar organic solvent is preferably n-hexane and/or diethyl ether. According to the similar principle of miscibility, most of the components in the microalgae grease I extracted by adopting the nonpolar organic solvent have lower polarity, namely the polarity of the components is relatively close to that of the nonpolar organic solvent. Theoretically, the main component in the microalgae grease I is triglyceride.
Wherein the term "triglyceride" is also known as a fatty acyl glycerol, and is a constituent of a lipid, which is a lipid formed from glycerol and 3 fatty acids.
In the present invention, the polar organic solvent may be a polar organic solvent conventionally used in the art. In the present invention, the polar organic solvents are classified into two major categories according to the magnitude of the dielectric constants thereof, namely, the organic solvent 1 and the organic solvent II, wherein the dielectric constant of the organic solvent I is lower than that of the organic solvent II, and it is understood that the boundary point of the dielectric constants of the organic solvent 1 and the organic solvent II may be any one value, such as a value of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60 or even higher and any value between any two values.

In theory, the main component in the microalgae grease II is glycolipid.
Wherein the term "glycolipid" refers to a lipid compound containing a glycosyl ligand.
In the present invention, the polar organic solvent II is preferably any organic solvent having a dielectric constant of 15 or more.

Under the condition, a plurality of microalgae grease with different physicochemical properties and higher EPA content can be obtained, and higher grease extraction rate and higher EPA total amount can be realized in each extraction process.
In the present invention, in the at least two organic solvent extractions, the method of each extraction is not particularly limited, and for example, water bath heating extraction, oil bath heating extraction, air bath heating extraction, or the like may be used; preferably, each organic solvent extraction is independently a water bath heating extraction.

TABLE 1
The technical scheme of the invention is used for obtaining a plurality of microalgae grease with different physicochemical properties, the total amount of the microalgae grease and the total amount of EPA are relatively high, and the impurity removal rate of the obtained microalgae grease is higher, so that the higher EPA content is ensured, and the value can be further improved under the preferable condition.
The inventor finds that the organic solvent with low dielectric constant to high dielectric constant can realize good extraction effect, and when the order of the dielectric constants of the organic solvents is opposite, different EPA grease cannot be well separated according to the polarity. Further, as can be seen from the comparison of the data of example 1 and comparative example 1, the EPA content in the extracted oils and fats decreases when the dielectric constant of the organic solvent is changed from high to low.
In comparative example 2, when the organic solvents are the same solvent, i.e., the extraction method conventional in the art, the mixture of EPA lipids obtained by extraction cannot be specifically obtained as EPA glycolipids, EPA phospholipids and EPA neutral lipids. As can be seen from the data in table 1, in comparative example 2, the EPA content increase ratio in the 3 microalgae oils after adsorption treatment was lower than before adsorption treatment, indicating that the impurity removal rate was lower.
The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
