Description

Carotenoid formulation
Technical field of the present invention
The present invention relates to carotenoid compositions or carotenoid is dispersed in by the preparation in the oil of fatty acid and glycerine esterification gained.More particularly, the present invention relates to carotenoid compositions or the carotenoid preparation in medium chain triglyceride oil.
Background technology of the present invention
In recent years, no matter be research worker or enterprise, the research interest of this compounds of being called carotenoid is all being increased.Carotenoid is the natural materials that extensively is present in the plant and animal, and colored compound normally, and they make fruits and vegetables be yellow to red mostly.The Crustaceans for example lacteous of the redness of Lobster and butter also is because due to the carotenoid.Epidemiological study shows that carotenoid lycopene (the main diet source of lycopene is a Fructus Lycopersici esculenti) has antitumaous effect in human body.Yet, up to the present, without any the Research on ability that in the animal model of having set up, suppresses tumor development about consumption of lycopene.
Because carotenoid also has the high strength color at low concentration, and their cost of extraction is very high from natural goods, so in the middle of this century, the organic chemist has successfully synthesized some and had the carotenoid of important economic worth.Beta-carotene and canthaxanthin and some derivants have become commercially available food coloring, food additive and animal pigment precursor, particularly the commodity of being sold by Europeancompanies Hoffman-LaRoche AG and BASF AG.
Carotenoid has unique conjugation carbon-to-carbon double bond chemical constitution.In main commercially available carotenoid, 9 two keys are arranged, they make molecule have special physics and chemical property.Especially, the reactivity of carotenoid and oxygen and free radical is very strong, so carotenoid can be classified as antioxidant commonly used.Carotenoid is present in people, the animal and plant tissue.For the reaction that the emergency rating of environment for example is higher than normal temperature and highlight strength, also can produce the carotenoid of higher concentration in some life entities.The dissolubility of carotenoid in water is very low usually, so it is positioned at the film and the lipid aggregation of living cells.In life entity, the concentration of carotenoid is quite low usually, is approximately 10-100ppm.
In the commercially available carotenoid product of the high concentration process that preparation can extract now and can make by chemical synthesis process, need stabilization of carotenoids so that it is not by airborne oxygen oxidation from natural goods.The carotenoid molecule also can be degraded owing to enzyme or microbial action, but this situation takes place under low concentration (for example being lower than 0.1%) and water environment usually.The chemical constitution of oxidation rate and carotenoid has much relations.The reactivity of some carotenoid is very strong, and the initiation reaction automatically in air of its homodisperse high concentration crystal form.Lycopene is wherein a kind of common carotenoid of the easiest oxidation, and in the process of preparation commercially available prod, stablizes lycopene or contain the compositions of lycopene extremely important for entire product.The oxidation that can not prevent some carotenoid has brought the commercialization difficulty to it.
It is confirmed that stablizing of carotenoid is very difficult usually.Wherein a kind of to help the means of anti-oxidation be to preserve pure crystal class carotene material in noble gas, yet this only is of practical significance on laboratory scale, not commercial value.Also known carotenoid compositions is suspended in the triglyceride oil (for example soybean oil) to help prevent oxidation.Though (carbon chain length is mainly C to use the soybean oil that extracts with solvent and Semen sojae atricolor according to proof 16-C 18Oil) very effective to some carotenoid such as beta-carotene, but it can not stop the degraded of other carotenoid such as lycopene on commercial size.
The invention summary
Therefore, the method that the purpose of this invention is to provide anti-carotenoid oxidation.Surprisingly, have been found that carotenoid compositions or carotenoid are in the oxidation that can alleviate carotenoid by suspension in the oil (not being the oil that extracts with solvent) of fatty acid and glycerine esterification gained or dispersion liquid from natural goods.In addition, find that carotenoid compositions or carotenoid are C in chain length 6-C 12Oil (hereinafter referred to as " medium chain triglyceride oil ") in suspension or the dispersion liquid oxidation that makes carotenoid significantly descend.

The content of lycopene is 3.7%, yet the total content of carotenoid is about 5.7%.Therefore, when representing with the % that accounts for the carotenoid total amount, lycopene accounts for 67%, and beta-carotene accounts for 20%; Precursor-the phytofluene of lycopene and phytoene account for 5% respectively, sigma carotene and 2, and 6-encircles lycopene-1, and the 5-glycol accounts for 0.7% respectively.Carotenoid total content according to 5.72% (rather than 4%) recomputates the concentration of lycopene in food, and the result has obtained the concentration of following each treatment group: group 1,1280; Group 2,512; Group 3,256; Group 4,128; With group 5,51 (mg/kg foods).Therefore, the lycopene suspension is not pure lycopene formulations, this suspension contain 5.9% lycopene, α-and beta-carotene, phytofluene and phytoene (precursor of lycopene) be suspended in the suspension in the medium chain triglyceride.Study this for chemoprophylaxis and be actually favourable, because composition that this carotenoid composition of lycopene suspension and content approach carotenoid in the commercially available Fructus Lycopersici esculenti and content are (referring to Khachik, F, Beecher, G.R. dietary factor international conference (International Conference on Food Factors): chemistry and cancer prevention.With the criterion of the distribution of carotenoid in fruits and vegetables as the selection chemopreventive agent.H.Ohigashi (ed.), Springer-Verlag, Tokyo, 1996 (printings)).
II. the stability in food
Once the lycopene suspension is incorporated in the food, just measure its stability with two kinds of methods at once.First method is the food that contains this suspension to be placed for 3 weeks (show 8A, B) in 4 ℃ dark.

Colon
For colon, can not obtain exact value, because carotenoid enters the little gap of mucosa, this makes can not estimate (absorption) carotenoid and intracavity (unabsorbed) carotenoid in the cell.The colon value is general similar to the value of lung and breast.
Glutathion is analyzed
The principle of measuring glutathion is that the reduction form of these three peptide thiols-glutathion (Glu-Cys-Gly) is participated in several important cell internal reactions directly, comprises the protective effect that prevents free radical damage.Fat carotenoid mutually is different with being arranged in, glutathion is positioned at the aqueous phase of cell, clearly, the antioxidant of fat phase and aqueous phase can interact each other in the following manner: the consumption of other antioxidant can " be saved " or limit to high-caliber antioxidant.In analyzing blood, liver and the kidney all (reduction and oxidation) glutathion (table 20-22).

Matched group 00 16 0
For retinol, between matched group and the high hycopene dosage group 10 times difference is arranged; For alpha-tocopherol, between matched group and the high hycopene dosage group 4 times difference is arranged.The data of male rat also are to be similar to this.Because fill-in contains seldom or do not contain retinol and vitamin E, so all retinols of finding in liver and vitamin must be from AIN-76A food.Therefore, the carotenoid fill-in has changed picked-up and the storage of liver to vitamin A and vitamin E.
Sum up
(1) key component in the lycopene suspension that is made by Fructus Lycopersici esculenti is lycopene (70%), also contains some and comprises α-and other carotenoid of beta-carotene, sigma carotene, lutein, phytoene and phytofluene.
(2) in male or female rats, lycopene does not have adverse effect at used dosage range to food intake or weight increase.
(3) under light at room temperature shone, lycopene can stably be preserved 7 days in food; Under 4 ℃, dark condition, can stably preserve 21 days.
(4) lycopene of the estimator of eating every day nearly 55% is secreted in the feces.
(5) lycopene is easy to absorb in rat liver and store.Also metabolism in liver of lycopene, and metabolic pathway is similar to the approach of finding in the people.Lycopene levels is not linear with food intake in the serum, and this shows that the serum lycopene levels has quite strict homoiostasis control.Lycopene is low 2 orders of magnitude of concentration ratio concentration in liver in serum.In lung, prostate, colon and breast tissue, lycopene is to be detected with ng quantity.Absorb normally relevantly with dosage, least concentration generally is in feeding male and female group of minimum lycopene, especially finds in the liver lycopene concentration.
(6) except that from the liver result who records with high lycopene levels rat feeding, in male and female rats, the glutathione concentrations in whole blood, liver and the kidney is all similar to matched group.
(7) behind the picked-up tomato carotenoids fill-in, the change relevant with dosage taken place with vitamin A concentration in vitamin E in the liver.Do not contain vitamin A because neither contain vitamin E in the fill-in, so the selectivity picked-up from food of vitamin E that the level of finding increases and vitamin A in liver yet.
At last, in the F-344 rat, the whole carotenoid that clearly is incorporated in the lycopene suspension in the AIN-76A half purification food is easy to absorb, enter in the circulation, and is deposited in all test organizations.Lycopene major part in the food is absorbed and is stored in the liver, and lycopene is found the mode metabolism to be similar in the people in liver.Evidence does not show that lycopene has toxicity in used dosage range then.
Though describe and illustrated the present invention by above-mentioned concrete material, operation and embodiment, should be appreciated that the present invention is not limited to the combination and the selected specific operation of enforcement the present invention of these specific materials, material.Numerous variations of these detailed descriptions can imply, and can be understood by those skilled in the art.
