It is preferable to use it. As the fruit, it is preferable to use the whole fruit including the skin. As the fruit or pericarp, any of immature fruit (plucked fruit) or pericarp and mature fruit or pericarp may be used. The extraction raw material can be subjected to pretreatment such as cutting, crushing, and drying.

エタノール水溶液におけるエタノール濃度は0〜40容量%の範囲内で適宜変更することができる。なお、エタノール濃度が0容量%のエタノール水溶液とは、水を意味する。水には、純水、水道水、井戸水、鉱泉水、鉱水、温泉水、湧水、淡水等の他、これらに各種処理を施したものが含まれる。水に施す処理としては、例えば、精製、加熱、殺菌、滅菌、ろ過、イオン交換、浸透圧の調整、緩衝化等が含まれる。   The ethanol concentration in the aqueous ethanol solution can be appropriately changed within the range of 0 to 40% by volume.

Examples of the cleaning liquid for the porous adsorption resin include water, an aqueous ethanol solution, an aqueous methanol solution, an aqueous isopropanol solution, and an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Of these, an aqueous ethanol solution is preferably used. The ethanol concentration of the aqueous ethanol solution used for washing the porous adsorption resin is usually 10 to 50% by volume, preferably 30 to 50% by volume.

多孔性吸着樹脂からの溶出液を、減圧乾燥等の常法に従って乾燥することによりノビレチン粗精製物を得ることができる。多孔性吸着樹脂からの溶出液に、工程(c)で得られる多孔性吸着樹脂洗浄液を混合し、この混合液を乾燥することによりノビレチン粗精製物を得ることもできる。
ノビレチン粗精製物には、通常、柑橘類に含まれるノビレチン以外のポリメトキシフラボノイド(例えば、タンゲレチン、ペンタメトキシフラボン、テトラメトキシフラボン、ヘプタメトキシフラボン)が含まれている。
A crude nobiletin product can be obtained by drying the eluate from the porous adsorption resin according to a conventional method such as drying under reduced pressure. It is also possible to obtain a nobiletin crude purified product by mixing the porous adsorbent resin washing liquid obtained in the step (c) with the eluate from the porous adsorbent resin and drying the mixed liquid.
The nobiletin crude product usually contains polymethoxyflavonoids other than nobiletin contained in citrus fruits (for example, tangeretin, pentamethoxyflavone, tetramethoxyflavone, heptamethoxyflavone).

多孔性吸着樹脂に吸着したノビレチンを溶出させる後、多孔性吸着樹脂を洗浄し、多孔性吸着樹脂に吸着している成分を溶出させることにより、多孔性吸着樹脂を繰り返し使用することができる。多孔性吸着樹脂の洗浄液としては、例えば、水、エタノール水溶液、メタノール水溶液、イソプロパノール水溶液、水酸化ナトリウム水溶液等が挙げられるが、これらのうちエタノール水溶液を使用することが好ましい。多孔性吸着樹脂の洗浄に使用するエタノール水溶液のエタノール濃度は、通常70〜99容量%である。   After eluting nobiletin adsorbed on the porous adsorption resin, the porous adsorption resin can be repeatedly used by washing the porous adsorption resin and eluting the components adsorbed on the porous adsorption resin. Examples of the cleaning liquid for the porous adsorption resin include water, an aqueous ethanol solution, an aqueous methanol solution, an aqueous isopropanol solution, and an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Of these, an aqueous ethanol solution is preferably used. The ethanol concentration of the aqueous ethanol solution used for washing the porous adsorption resin is usually 70 to 99% by volume.
