Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the production of lipids with a high proportion of long-chain, highly unsaturated fatty acids with 20 to 22 carbon atoms by extraction from a
- our food contains mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which therefore have at least one double bond in their carbon chain.
- Short formulas are often used to designate these polyene fatty acids.
- the number of carbon atoms or the chain length is specified first. A hyphen or colon follows, followed by a number which denotes the number of double bonds in the carbon chain. Following this, but separately, the number of omega-C atoms, counted from the methyl end of the chain, is given after a "" or "n". Accordingly, the linoleic acid is called 18-2 n6.
- fatty acids such as lonolic acid (18: 2 n6) and ⁇ -linolenic acid (18: 3 n3) can be described as essential, since they cannot be synthesized by the human organism themselves, but are supplied with food Need to become.
- the healthy human organism is able to synthesize a series of highly unsaturated fatty acids with 20 or 22 C atoms by further desaturation and chain elongation.
- the biosynthetic pathway of the w6 family thus starts from linoleic acid (C18-2 n6) via gamma-linolenic acid (C18-3 n6), di-homo-gamma-linolenic acid (C20-3 n6) and arachidonic acid (C20 -4 n6) to docosapentaenoic acid (C22-5 n6).
- the biosynthetic pathway starts from ⁇ -linolenic acid (C18-3 n3), via octadecatetraenoic acid (C18-4 n3), egg cosatetraenoic acid (C20-4 n3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (C20-5 n3) to docosahexanoic acid (C22-6 n3).
- LCP Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids
- LCP Double bonds in the acyl residue.
- LCP is used in the following as a short spelling of this group of fatty acids, a distinction being made between the w6 and w3 LCP.
- the LCP's have diverse biological effects. For example, they are an indispensable component of all cell membranes of the body. A change in the membrane lipid composition can lead to a wide variety of physiological disorders.
- the eicosanoids synthesized from some LCP's in the organism have also been particularly effective in recent years (Prostaglandins, leucotrienes, prostacyclins and thromboxanes). It has been shown that this highly effective group of eicosanoids is involved in a large number of physiological processes in low concentrations.
- oils from LCP's are predominantly obtained from marine cold water fish (compare EP 0 292 846 A2 and DE 39 40 239 AI).
- Such oils from muscle tissue or from fish organs are characterized by high proportions of w3-LCP's and in particular of eicosapentaenoic acid (20-5 n3) and docosahexanoic acid (22-6 n3).
- oils and in particular oils from fish organs have the disadvantage that they have a high cholesterol content and also a high content of fat-soluble vitamins and possibly fat-soluble pollutants (heavy metals / pesticides).
- It has also already been proposed to obtain LCP from autotrophic or heterotrophically fermented microorganisms (compare WO 91/07498, WO 91/119 182 and DE 34 46 795 AI).
- the LCPs of interest here can also be obtained from organ fats from slaughter animals (cattle / pigs and from the egg yolk of chicken eggs (EP 0 074 251 B2).
- the extraction of LCP from human placents is described in EP 0 140 805 A1.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method for obtaining LCP-rich lipids from a raw material not previously used for this purpose. It is also an object of the invention to provide a lipid extract or lipid extract fractions which are rich in LCP fatty acids and, inter alia, provide a basis for the production of food, especially baby food.
- An essential aspect of the invention is that a certain raw material is used for the production of LCP-containing lipids.
- macroalgae from the brown, red and green algae families mainly occurring in the sea can be used.
- those from the Phaeophyceen and Rhodophyceen families are of particular interest.
- Individual species are primarily used for human nutrition in the coastal countries of Northern Europe and East Asia (Japan) but also in other parts of the world.
- These macroalgae can be found in many shelf regions of the oceans and are available in practically unlimited quantities.
- a few macro algae species are also cultivated in a deliberate manner in delimited marine areas (aquaculture).
- the macroalgae are comminuted, in particular ground, before the actual extraction, so that the raw material obtained from these macroalgae and used in the process according to the invention has a grain size of 50 mm.
- the macroalgae are dried either before or after comminution, so that their water content is ⁇ 50 Ge. -%.
- algae flour ground native algae
- Alginates and carraghenans which are used as hydrocolloids in the food industry in a wide variety of ways, are currently obtained to a greater extent from various types of brown and red algae.
- the algae are "grown” or cultivated, harvested, dried and ground to a large extent as described above.
- various algae species are mixed in a targeted manner and finally extracted with water.
- the raw material used in the process according to the invention can also be microalgae according to the invention, some of which are already traditionally used for human nutrition in some countries. These predominantly single-celled algae, which are native to fresh, sea or brackish water, are often cultivated for this purpose in open outdoor ponds using sunlight.
- algal biomass produced by fermentation is today e.g. already available on the market for the species of the genus Spirulina, Dunaliella and Porphyridium.
- autotrophic - i.e. Under sunlight or artificial lighting - cultivated species have been developed to produce certain microalgae biomass heterotrophically in closed fermenters at low cost. All of these microalgae cultivated outdoors or autotrophically or heterotrophically fermented from the strains of Cyanophyta, Chrysophyta Dinophyta, Euglenophyta, Rhodophyta and Chlororphyta can be used according to the invention.
- Hydrocolloid extraction and the microalgae used according to the invention have a moisture content of more than 50 Ge. -% and / or have a grain size of greater than 50 mm, then this raw material is dried and / or ground before the extraction according to the invention, so that the water content of the biomass used in the process according to the invention is 50 50% by weight and the grain size is ⁇ 50 mm.
- An organic solvent or a compressed gas is used as the solvent for extracting the lipids with a high proportion of LCP's.
- Classic organic solvents and lower alcohols with 1 to 6 carbon atoms are used in particular as organic solvents. It is preferred to use solvents and alcohols that are miscible with water in all proportions. Ethanol is the preferred representative. Mixtures of the solvents mentioned can of course also be used. Organic solvents which are permissible according to the respective food law provisions are preferably used.
- the compressed gases used are preferably carbon dioxide or propane or a mixture thereof.
- the gas used must have pressures and temperatures that ensure that it is in a liquid or supercritical state.
- Such compressed gases are characterized by characteristic solution properties, in particular for lipophilic ingredients.
- gases or liquids other than entraining agents can be added to the compressed gas in such an amount that the mixture is in a uniform liquid or supercritical state under the extraction conditions.
- a compressed gas which is more polar or non-polar than the compressed gas used for the extraction or else an organic solvent can be used as entrainer. In this way, the polarity of the extract onsffen and thus influence or adjust the solution properties thereof
- the extraction with an organic solvent is carried out in particular at a temperature of 20 ° C. to 65 ° C., the upper temperature value of course depending on the solvent used. Extraction is preferably carried out at a temperature of about 60 ° C., especially if ethanol is used as the organic solvent.
- the extraction is preferably carried out in the form of a batch extraction (maceration), percolation, decanter extraction or countercurrent extraction.
- the overall yields in these procedures can be lower than in the case of extraction of the entire lipids, for example with the aid of exhaustive Soxhlet extraction.
- these working methods can be carried out in a much shorter time and thus more economically.
- percolation is preferably carried out.
- Process means both the corresponding anhydrous solvents and those solvents which contain water (for example up to 30 vol .-%).
- Standard solvents can therefore be used without the need to dry them beforehand.
- a high water content can adversely affect the yield of desired lipids.
- the temperature of the is preferably reduced
- the lipid extract can also be separated off by increasing the water content, these measures could also be combined with the described temperature reduction.
- the organic solvent is not or only partially removed from the miscella. Water is added to the miscella, if necessary with cooling, so that the solution capacity of the mixture at the selected temperature is no longer sufficient to keep the lipids in solution. These are now separated from the miscella, for example with a separator.
- the resulting solution can now be removed from the liquid solvent at normal pressure and high temperatures and the residual extract can be obtained in this way.
- the water content of the miscella is preferably increased to 20% to 90%, in particular to 30 to 50%.
- the temperature of the miscella is preferably reduced to values from +20 ° C. to -60 ° C. and in particular to +5 ° C. to -18 ° C. It goes without saying that the water content of the solvent originally used and thus the Miscella before the addition of water was above the stated values.
- a solvent with a water content of 0 to 20 vol.%, In particular 4-15 vol.% (E.g. ethanol) is preferably used.
- the temperature of the miscella must of course be above the values to which the temperature is lowered before the temperature is lowered.
- the miscella preferably has a temperature of 40 ° C. up to the boiling point of the solvent used.
- the entire extract from the Miscella can also be obtained by evaporating off the solvent.
- the temperature by increasing the water content and / or by lowering the temperature, it is possible to separate the lipids with the fatty acids of interest almost quantitatively.
- Extract partially freed from the solvent can be extracted again with a compressed gas, preferably carbon dioxide.
- the extract obtained with the aid of the organic solvent was fractionated into a non-polar triglyceride-containing fraction and a polar phospholipid-containing fraction which, if appropriate after appropriate refining, can be used for a wide variety of uses.
- the conditions for the fractional extraction with the compressing gas are the same as for the extraction of the originally used algae etc. with this gas.
- the invention thus also relates to a lipid extract or a lipid extract fraction with an arachidonic acid content of at least 5% by weight and / or with a docosahexaenoic acid content of at least 3% by weight, based on the total weight of the fatty acids.
- these fatty acids are not free, but in "bound form” (eg triglyceride, glycolipid, phospholipid etc.).
- Lipids which are rich in these fatty acids are otherwise difficult to obtain or unsatisfactory in an economic respect.
- the content of arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid and especially the content of these two fatty acids in a lipid extract naturally depends on the choice of the raw material used. It is. however sufficient if the lipid extract contains one of these fatty acids in a high proportion, since it naturally also other extracts and other ingredients can be mixed.
- the invention furthermore relates to a lipid extract or a lipid extract fraction obtainable by the method according to the invention.
- the LCP-containing lipid extracts according to the invention or individual lipid fractions can, if appropriate after customary refining and stabilization, be used as an additive to the fat body of infant foods.
- infant foods are not only to be understood as the usual starting milk foods for premature and mature eborene infants, but also special products that are offered, for example, for the therapy or prevention of atopic diseases.
- LCP low-density lipoprotein
- phospholipid-containing fractions from algae raw materials after appropriate refining and stabilization, can also be used as an additive in fat emulsions for parenteral nutrition.
- the lipid extracts and / or lipid fractions mentioned and / or the alkyl esters of the LCP obtained therefrom after hydrolysis and transesterification can be used in a suitable form (for example gelatin capsules) for the prevention of arteriosclerotic diseases and inflammatory autoimmune diseases.
- the LCP-containing fractions and in particular the phospholipid fractions can serve as an active ingredient additive to cosmetic preparations or as a starting material for the formation of liposomes, which can also be added to cosmetic preparations.
- the LCP-containing phospholipid fractions can be used as emulsifiers due to their physico-chemical properties be used in the food and cosmetic industries.
- lipids were extracted quantitatively.
- the total lipids are the natural mixtures of triglycerides, glyco- and phospholipids as well as fat-soluble pigments and vitamins.
- Arachidonic acid (AA; 20-4 n6) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22-6 n3) are primarily to be mentioned as valuable components here. These fatty acids can be extracted in very different proportions from the individual raw materials. While the arachidonic acid could be extracted from all raw materials in proportions of 5 to 8% by weight, the raw materials referred to as alginates 3 and 4 are above all the alginate and carrageenan production is characterized by characteristic levels of docosahexaenoic acid. This fatty acid does not occur in the other raw materials or only in very small proportions.
- the extraction yields shown in Table 2 show that the total extractable lipid content of the various algae raw materials ranges between about 10 to 70 g per kg of dry matter, from which approximately 50% of total fatty acids can be obtained.
- the proportion of extractable valuable fatty acids (n6-LCP + n3-LCP) in the residues of alginate production is up to 7 g per kg of dry matter and in the native algae up to 6 g per kg of dry matter.
- the process according to the invention can be carried out economically in particular if the two residues of alginate extraction alginate 2 and alginate 3, the single cell oil (microalgae) and the algae meal from Ascophyllum nodosum are used as the raw material in the process according to the invention.
- the extract obtained by solvent extraction can be fractionated and purified using conventional methods.
- An extraction according to the invention with a compressed gas can also follow.
- n6-LCP sum of the n6 fatty acids with 20 and more carbon atoms in the acyl radical
- n3-LCP sum of the n3 fatty acids with 20 and more carbon atoms in the acyl radical
- 20-4 n6 arachidonic acid
- 20-5 n3 egg cosapentaenoic acid
- 22-6 n3 docosahexaenoic acid.
- the extract is preferably by distillation under vermin ⁇ dertem pressure completely freed from solvent and then the industrial standard in the production of edible fats purification procedure such as bleaching, degumming and Desodo ration, subjected.
- the bleach can be added before the solvent is completely removed.
- the flour of the alga Ascophyllum nodosum was used as raw material.
- the solvent extraction over 4 h was carried out with ethanol (90%; vol / vol) at different temperatures.
- the arrangement used is a one-step percolation modeled on the laboratory scale.
- the ratio between the extractant used and the raw material dry substance was about 4: 1 (w / w).
- GE total extract
- FS fatty acid yield
- 20-4 n6 yield of arachidonic acid
- 20-5 n3 yield of eicosapentaenoic acid
- alginate 1 a raw material was used that already was used to obtain alginate (alginate 1).
- This residue is a mixture of different types of brown algae.
- the algae residues were dried and ground after the alginate extraction process, so that their grain size and water content correspond approximately to the flour of the algae Ascophyllum nodosum (see Example 2).
- the extraction method used for the stepwise countercurrent extraction corresponds to the processes carried out on an industrial scale.
- the extract loading of the Miscella fluctuates around an average during the multi-stage countercurrent extraction. The more stages are used and the shorter the duration of the raw material in the arrangement, the less this fluctuation.
- this method compared to percolation, identical yields can be achieved with a fraction of the solvent expenditure or with similar amounts of solvent, higher yields.
- the dried and ground raw material from native algae or from residues of alginate and carrageenan extraction is used.
- the water content of the starting material is usually between 5 and 50% by weight, preferably between 10 and 20% by weight.
- the grain size of the material is 0.01 mm to 50 mm, preferably 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm.
- the algae flour from Ascophyllum nodosum already used in Example 2 serves as raw material.
- the extraction was carried out with compressed carbon dioxide (150 bar, 35 ° C, approx. 11 kg CO2 / kg raw material). Under these conditions, at least 90% of the total lipids extractable with this solvent can be obtained. Table 5
- Extract and fatty acid yields of the HD extraction of Ascopylum nodosum in comparison to the ethanol-Soxhlet extraction in% by weight with respect to the raw material dry matter
- Table 5 compares the maximum yields that can be achieved with the method described in relation to the raw material mentioned. Soxhlet extraction stands for methods of solvent extraction with ethanol as a whole, since even in principle it is nothing more than a repeated percolation / maceration.
- the separation of the lipid fraction from the miscella by raised stabili ⁇ hung in the water content was the example of the step-by wise countercurrent extraction of alginate 2 with 90% ethanol obtained miscella. 5 aliquots of the miscella were removed and, based on the 10% water in the starting miscella, these were specifically adjusted to different water contents (cf. Table 7). The extracts separated after the addition of water were obtained by centrifuging, decanting the supernatant and finally drying.
- GE total extract
- LE lipid extract
- FS fatty acids
- 20-4 n6 arachidonic acid
- 20-5 n3 eicosapentaenoic acid
- the extract Due to the strong increase in the water content of the Miscella, the extract is pre-cleaned, because hydrophilic substances which have already been extracted with a water content of the extraction agent of 10% remain in solution and thus do not have to do so first can be subsequently removed from the total lipid extract by complex processes.
- the extract separated at a Miscella water content of 55% and the comparative extract were determined by gas chromatography examined.
- the miscella obtained with organic solvent (preferably ethanol) or an extract completely or partially freed from the solvent is brought into contact with compressed gases, preferably carbon dioxide, in an extraction autoclave.
- compressed gases preferably carbon dioxide
- the triglycerides, carotinoids, chlorophylls and phytosterols are selectively extracted from the extract.
- the solution properties of the extraction gas can be significantly expanded by suitable selection and metering of the entrainer or incomplete removal of the liquid solvent from the extract.
- the lipids are primarily fractionated into a non-polar and a polar fraction.
- the non-polar lipid fraction can then be subjected to further fractionation in the course of a multi-stage separation.
- the maceration was carried out in this example as a single-stage batch extraction at 35 * C for 20 h.
- the miscellaneous loading was before high pressure extraction with regard to the total extract
- HDE high pressure extraction
- % By weight percent by weight
- FS fatty acids
- n.HDE i.AB. after high pressure extraction in the separator
- the comparison of the fatty acid spectra of the lipid extracts before and after the high-pressure extraction shows that the fatty acid pattern of the neutral lipid fraction does not differ significantly from the total extract.
- the proportion of the physiologically important fatty acids arachidonic acid (20-4 n6) and eicosapentaenoic acid (20-5 n3) in the neutral lipid extract does not change due to the HD extraction, but on the contrary increases in the case of eicosapentaenoic acid.
