Description

Method for extracting fucoidan by subcritical water
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of extraction processes of fucans, in particular to a method for extracting fucans by subcritical water.
Background
Kelp (Laminaria japonica) is a perennial large edible algae. Sporophytes are large, brown and flat. The blade, the handle and the fixing device are respectively provided, and the fixing device is in a pseudo-root shape. The leaf is composed of epidermis, cortex and medulla tissue, and sporangium is arranged under the leaf. Has a mucus cavity, and can secrete sliding substances. The tree-shaped branches of the anchor are used for attaching submarine rocks and growing in the sea with lower water temperature. Has great yield in coastal areas of China, is rich in various excellent components, and has wide application prospect.
Fucan, called fucan, fucan sulfate, fucoidan sulfate, etc., is mainly derived from brown algae, and is a polysaccharide containing fucose and sulfuric acid groups. It has various biological functions such as anticoagulation, anti-tumor, antithrombotic, antiviral, antioxidant and immunity enhancing, etc., and thus is widely used in the medical field and the modern food industry.
In recent years, researchers have adopted new technologies such as enzymolysis extraction, ultrasonic extraction and acid extraction, so that the extraction rate of fucans is improved to a certain extent, but the technologies have some limitations. For example: the enzymolysis extraction method has the advantages of high polysaccharide extraction rate, mild reaction condition and small damage to the polysaccharide structure, but the enzymolysis extraction method has high requirements on production reaction condition due to higher enzyme cost, and is not suitable for large-scale industrial production. The ultrasonic extraction method can improve the extraction rate of polysaccharide and shorten the extraction time, but sometimes can cause mixing of polysaccharide extraction product components, and aggravate the pressure of subsequent separation and purification. The acid extraction method has poor activity of the extracted components, and has great pollution to the environment, and more investment is required for environmental remediation engineering.
The water with temperature and pressure above the critical point (the temperature range is usually between 100 ℃ and 374 ℃ and the pressure range is usually between 0.1 and 22.1 MPa), called as supercritical water, has very different physical and chemical properties from common liquid water, has good solubility, and can realize mutual solubility among gas, liquid and organic solid. Because supercritical water has very high requirements on equipment and is extremely corrosive, in order to reduce the requirements on the equipment, part of research is started to perform related reactions under the subcritical condition.
The subcritical water (Subcritical water) is also an extraction method which is easy to repeat, green and environment-friendly and has sustainable development benefits, and has excellent application prospects for researching the selection of various parameters in fucan extraction.

It can be seen from the above experimental examples that the two conditions of temperature and liquid-to-material ratio are changed as the main influencing factors. Under the temperature change, the polarity of subcritical water is similar to that of fucan, so that the fucan component in kelp is promoted to be separated out. The change of the liquid-material ratio mainly changes the mixing property of subcritical water and raw materials, and the too high liquid-material ratio can cause too thin solution, so that the extraction purity is reduced, and meanwhile, the solvent and energy are wasted; the excessively low liquid-material ratio can lead to the reduction of the component precipitation degree of the fucosan, the reduction of the overall extraction rate and the waste of raw materials.
