2. Description of the Related Art It is already known that royal jelly has various pharmacological actions. For this reason, various health foods containing royal jelly as an active ingredient have been sold.
As the active ingredient of this royal jelly, decenoic acid and / or a salt thereof have been conventionally known, but many researchers have recognized that there is a difference between the content of decenoic acids and the strength of the medicinal effect. That is, although such active ingredients have been searched for, their identity has not yet been grasped. The present inventors have intensively studied for such an active ingredient and, as a result, have found that a protein having a molecular weight of 20,000 to 100,000 has an active ingredient having an anti-fatigue effect different from decenoic acids. The existence of such a protein is not yet known, and no means for efficiently purifying such a component is known.

(Step of Removing Soluble Content of Low Chain Alcohol Aqueous Solution) The active ingredient having an anti-fatigue action in royal jelly discovered by the present inventors has a molecular weight of 2,000 to 10
It is known that such a substance is usually insoluble in a low-chain-length alcohol aqueous solution such as an aqueous ethanol solution. According to the analysis performed by the present inventors, royal jelly, other than the active ingredient having an anti-fatigue effect, which is the subject of the present invention, has a relatively low molecular weight such as decenoic acid and is not a protein. Many components are present. There are also proteins with low molecular weight. These low-molecular-weight proteins and low-molecular-weight non-proteins are dissolved in an aqueous solution containing a low-chain-length alcohol. In this step, the low-molecular-weight protein and the low-molecular-weight non-protein are removed using the difference in solubility. Alcohol with a low chain length that can be used at Honcho Ako House
To 4 are preferable, for example, methanol, ethanol, normal propanol, isopropanol, normal butanol, secondary butanol, tertiary butanol and the like can be exemplified. , Ethanol and isopropanol are preferred from the viewpoint of safety. Particularly, ethanol is particularly preferable in consideration of solubility. The low-chain alcohol has a content of 10
It is preferably used as an aqueous solution containing 20 V / V%. This is because if the concentration is too low, the active ingredient elutes or the yield decreases, and if this concentration is too high, low molecular weight proteins and low molecular weight non-protein components precipitate and mix into the active ingredient. Because it comes. Such a low-chain-length alcohol-containing aqueous solution is added to a purified royal jelly in an amount of 1 to 100 times, mixed and suspended well, and the insoluble components are removed using a pore size filter that does not allow the protein as an active ingredient to pass through. What is necessary is just to filter. Preferred examples of such a filter include a millipore filter and an ultrafiltration membrane.
Ultrafiltration membranes for 0000 are particularly preferred. By performing such ultrafiltration, a soluble component in a low-chain-length alcohol aqueous solution having a molecular weight of 20,000 or more can be obtained. or,
The filtrate obtained as a part from which the active ingredient has been removed by such treatment contains a large amount of decenoic acid, which is another active ingredient of royal jelly which has been conventionally known. It also has the secondary effect of being able to concentrate.

(Step of removing water-insoluble components) The royal jelly has a molecular weight of 20,000 which is the subject of the present invention.
Non-protein components of similar size exist as components having physical properties similar to proteins of 100100,000. The difference between these non-protein components and the protein component that is the subject of the present invention is that
Difference in solubility in water. While proteins having a molecular weight of 20,000 to 100,000, which are the subject of the present invention, are water-soluble, many such non-protein components are not water-soluble. Therefore, by removing water-insoluble components,
The active ingredient can be more efficiently purified at the molecular weight of the protein. Such a process has a molecular weight of 70,000 to 1,500.
It can be performed at the same time as the high molecular weight component removal step, which is performed using an ultrafiltration membrane for 00, but from the viewpoint of clogging and efficiency of the filtration membrane, ultrafiltration of the high molecular weight component by centrifugation or the like is performed. It is preferable to perform the removal before the removal. The centrifugation in this case is 1000 to 1,000,000

(Step of Excluding Water-Soluble Components and High-Molecular-Weight Components) The water-soluble components which are insoluble in the aqueous solution of low-chain-length alcohol include, as the subject of the present invention, a molecular weight of 20,000. As a result of various studies, the present inventors have found that there is a protein having a higher molecular weight in addition to a protein having an anti-fatigue action of 100100,000. Therefore, such high molecular weight proteins cannot be removed only by the above two steps. This step is a step that complements the above two steps and removes the high molecular weight protein. The decisive difference between such a high molecular weight protein and the protein which is the active ingredient of the subject of the present invention is the molecular weight, and such a high molecular weight protein passes through the protein which is the subject of the present invention. It can be removed by ultrafiltration using a pore size ultrafiltration membrane through which high molecular weight proteins cannot pass. As such an ultrafiltration membrane, an ultrafiltration membrane for a molecular weight of 70,000 to 150,000 can be preferably exemplified. Of course, without using such ultrafiltration,
Such components can be removed by gel filtration,
Although such a method also belongs to the technical scope of the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use ultrafiltration in view of working efficiency and industrial applicability.
