Description

Method for determining fucoxanthin content in algae cells
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of fucoxanthin detection, in particular to a method for determining the content of fucoxanthin in algal cells.
Background
Fucoxanthin (Fucoxanthin) is also called Fucoxanthin and Fucoxanthin, and is an important carotenoid contained in brown algae, diatom, chrysophyceae and yellow-green algae, wherein the content of brown algae and diatom is more abundant. Fucoxanthin exists in algal cells in the form of a Fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c-protein complex (FCP complex), and plays a role of a light-capturing pigment to participate in photosynthesis. In addition, the molecular structure of the modified polypropylene is special, and the modified polypropylene also contains unusual propylene diene bond and 5,6-monoepoxy structure besides a long-chain conjugated double bond structure. Fucoxanthin has a unique molecular structure, and various powerful biological functions are endowed to the fucoxanthin, such as: anti-obesity, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, blood sugar/blood lipid lowering, and liver protecting effects. Therefore, the fucoxanthin source is a research hotspot and is widely applied in the fields of medicines, health care products, feed additives and the like, and the current market demand of the fucoxanthin is about 10 tons/year. In recent years, with the great improvement of the national living standard, the consumption requirements related to the field of human health are increasing day by day, so that the product containing fucoxanthin has wide application prospect and huge market demand.
At present, fucoxanthin is mainly produced from large brown algae such as kelp and undaria pinnatifida. However, the fucoxanthin content in the kelp is extremely low, and is more than 0.01-0.05%, and not more than 0.1% (based on the dry weight of the cells). Due to the low fucoxanthin content in kelp, only about 1 kg of fucoxanthin (10% purity) can be extracted from 2000 kg of kelp. Furthermore, the cost of fucoxanthin extraction from kelp is high, resulting in a price of up to $ 200/kg of fucoxanthin having a content of 1% in the market. In the current technology, the production of fucoxanthin from large brown algae is difficult to realize industrialization, under the condition, the development of a new source of fucoxanthin is the key point for realizing the large-scale production of the fucoxanthin, and how to screen the fucoxanthin-rich algae species is a necessary problem.
The existing analysis and determination methods for the fucoxanthin content in algal cells comprise High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), ultraviolet spectrophotometer (UV) and fluorescence detection methods. For example, CN108279204A discloses a method for rapidly and nondestructively detecting fucoxanthin in phaeodactylum tricornutum cells, and particularly discloses a method for rapidly and nondestructively detecting fucoxanthin in phaeodactylum tricornutum cellsDetecting the average fluorescence intensity value of algae cells under the emission wavelength of 533nm or 585nm by using a flow cytometer, and performing linear regression on the logarithmic value of the fucoxanthin content of the Phaeodactylum tricornutum suspension sample and the logarithmic value of the average fluorescence intensity value correspondingly measured to obtain R 2 =0.9267 linear regression equation, quantitative lower limit of intracellular fucoxanthin content of phaeodactylum tricornutum is 3.24mg/g dry algal powder. In the case of the HPLC detection method, the sample is subjected to pretreatment for detection, such as drying and pigment extraction, the analysis process takes a long time, and a large amount of organic reagents are consumed, so that the production process and quality control of fucoxanthin are time-consuming and labor-consuming. For the UV method, a fucoxanthin sample usually contains a large amount of other pigments, and the sample needs to be pretreated during the UV detection, and the pigment is extracted and then subjected to UV detection, so that the UV absorption possibly caused by other pigments and impurities cannot be eliminated because the high-purity fucoxanthin cannot be extracted during the pigment extraction process, and thus, the fucoxanthin cannot be quantitatively determined accurately and accurately. For the fluorescence detection method, because Fucoxanthin exists in the algae cell in the form of a Fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c-protein complex (Fucoxanthin-chlorophyl protein complex), the obtained fluorescence signal of Fucoxanthin is greatly influenced by the chlorophyll, and the content of the chlorophyll changes along with the change of the fluorescence signal of the Fucoxanthin in different physiological stages of the algae cell, so that the accuracy of the test result is influenced to a certain extent. In addition, the above method requires a relatively large amount of algal cells. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method for detecting fucoxanthin, which can improve the detection efficiency, simplify the detection process, reduce the interference of the impure pigments, and have high reliability.
