For this reason, the components of these purple ipes act in a complex manner, in addition to the above-mentioned carcinogenesis-inhibiting action, fresh blood hematopoiesis, anti-inflammatory action, analgesic action, action to increase renal function and smooth urination It has also been confirmed that it is effective in improving the hormone secretion disorder.

Conventional methods of ingesting the active ingredient of purple ipe include decocting the bark of purple ipe and drinking it like tea, or extracting the active ingredient from the bark of purple ipe and processing it into oral or parenteral agents It has been known.

And the method of extracting the content component of purple ipe is disclosed by the following patent document 1. FIG. Moreover, the health food which uses purple ipe as an active ingredient is disclosed by the following patent document 2. FIG.

Japanese Patent No. 2669762 JP 2004-187600 A

In the method of decocting and drinking the bark of purple ipe, even if the bark of purple ipe is decocted and eluted in hot water, it is difficult to elute all the content components contained in purple ipe into hot water was there.

Further, in Patent Document 1, as a method for extracting NFD which is a content component of purple ipe, the dried bark of purple ipe is extracted with warm methanol, and the residue obtained by distilling off methanol is subjected to cold immersion with chloroform. Although it is described that soluble components are separated and prepared by preparative thin-layer chromatography using toluene / ethyl acetate as a developing solvent, the extraction method is complicated and naturally obtained by the method of Patent Document 1. There was a problem that the obtained NFD preparation was very expensive.

Furthermore, the health food containing purple ipe as an active ingredient disclosed in Patent Document 2 is filled with a chopped product of purple ipe in the wrapping bag to ensure good storage stability, and is contained in the wrapping bag when eating and drinking. Eating and drinking from the filling, eating and drinking powdered purple ipe in hot water, or adding purple ipe to hot water, boiling and concentrating, and placing the concentrated solution in a sachet It is liquid-tight and is intended to be used for food and drink by heat-treating this sachet under a high temperature condition of about 100 ° C., but none of the purple ipe has been made ultrafine to nanometer size. Therefore, there is a problem that the content component of purple ipe cannot be extracted completely.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and electrolyzes purple ipe bark particles obtained by pulverizing purple ipe bark into fine particles in a pretreatment, and tap water or natural water. The obtained electroreduced water, or a fluid mixed with alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, or pure water, is pumped to an ultrafine atomizer, and the purple in the fluid is By colliding the ipe particles with high pressure to pulverize the purple ipe particles into nanometer-sized ultrafine particles, bark particles that have been made ultrafine to the nanometer size are immersed in the fluid, The content component containing the NFD of purple ipe is eluted in the fluid and completely extracted. After that, the fluid is dried to evaporate water in the fluid and deteriorate due to oxidation. Can prevent the contents of purple ipe It is intended to provide a factory method.

The present invention relates to bark particles of purple ipe that have been finely pulverized by pretreatment, electrolytically reduced water obtained by electrolyzing tap water or natural water, or alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, A stream of water mixed with pure water is pumped to an ultrafine atomizer, and the purple ipe particles in the stream collide with each other at high pressure to make the bark particles of purple ipe a nanometer size. In addition, the purple ipe component is eluted and extracted from the ultrafine particle bark particles into the fluid, and then the fluid is dried to remove moisture, The above-mentioned problems have been solved by adopting a processing method in which the content components of purple ipe containing bark made into ultrafine particles are taken out as dry purple ipe components.

According to the purple ipe processing method of the present invention, purple ipe bark particles that have been made into ultrafine particles by pretreatment and chlorine obtained by electrolyzing tap water or natural water are not contained, and the redox potential is 200 mV. High pressure is applied to the ultra-fine atomizer using the following numerical values and a mixture of electroreduced water having characteristics including active hydrogen, or alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, or pure water. The bark is made into ultrafine particles up to the nanometer size by pumping in, causing the bark particles to collide with each other under high pressure, and crushing the whole bark particles into ultrafine particles down to nanometer size. Particles are soaked in the flow material and the purple ipe content is eluted and extracted in the flow material. After that, the flow material is dried to evaporate water, Inferiority due to oxidation of content components such as IFD NFD The contents of the purple ipe containing the bark particles made into ultrafine particles after extracting the purple ipe component are easily, quickly and efficiently completely converted into a high-quality dried purple ipe component with a block shape. Can be taken out.

By making the lump-shaped dry purple ipe component containing the extracted fine bark particles extracted into powder or granules, humans can take them as health food.

And even if there are bark particles from which the purple ipe component has not been extracted among the ultra-fine bark particles, the bark particles have been made ultra-fine to the nanometer size, so that they can be absorbed into the human body. The content component of purple ipe can be efficiently absorbed into the human body from the unextracted bark particles.

Violet ipe particles obtained by pulverizing dried bark of purple ipe in the form of fine particles in the pre-treatment and electrolytically reduced water obtained by electrolyzing tap water or natural water, or alkali ion water, mineral water, A flow material mixed with either natural water or pure water is pumped to an ultra-fine atomizer, and the purple ipe particles in the flow material collide with each other at a high pressure so that the purple ipe particles are nanometer-sized. After pulverizing into ultrafine particles, the active ingredient in the purple ipe particles is eluted and extracted into the flow, and then the flow is dried to evaporate the water in the flow, By removing the purple ipe component containing the bark particles that have been made into ultrafine particles after extracting the purple ipe component as a dry violet ipe component, the content of components such as NFD in the purple ipe is prevented from being deteriorated by oxidation, and Content components can be completely extracted.

The first step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a washing step of purple ipe bark containing a purple ipe component. That is, in the first step, the purple ipe bark is contaminated or contaminated with foreign matter such as dust, and is washed by introducing it into water to remove foreign matter such as dirt or dust. It is.

The second step of the purple ipe processing method according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a drying step of drying the purple ipe bark after washing in the first step to remove foreign matters such as dirt and dust. That is, in the second step, to dry the washed purple ipe bark, a method of drying by roasting using a roaster, a method of drying using a dryer, a method of drying naturally by sun drying Any of freeze-drying methods using freeze drying can be employed in the present invention. This drying step is for facilitating the pulverization of purple ipe bark in the next step, and any one of the above methods is employed as necessary.

The third step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a step of crushing and sterilizing the purple ipe bark dried in the second step. That is, in the third step, the purple ipe bark that has undergone the second step is not fixed in length and thickness, and cannot be used in the present invention as it is. This is a step of pulverizing into fine particles, and then putting the fine purple ipe bark into, for example, an ultraviolet sterilization line to sterilize the pulverized purple ipe bark particles. Various crushers used in the third step can be used, and it is not necessary to limit them in particular. However, it is preferable to use a hammer mill that does not cause fiber variation after pulverization. Recommended.

The fourth step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a fluidization step. That is, in the fourth step, the finely divided bark particles that have been subjected to the pulverization and sterilization steps are filtered with a filter to take out bark particles having a particle size of 50 μm or less, and thereafter, the bark particles are 15 to 25% by weight, preferably Is obtained by electrolysis of 20% by weight of tap water or natural water, and does not contain chlorine, shows a numerical value with a redox potential of 200 mV or less, and has the characteristics of containing active hydrogen. Add and mix in 85 wt%, preferably 80 wt%, mix and stir, adjust the mixture, adjust the bark particles to be evenly dispersed in the electrolytically reduced water, This is a step of making a fluid with electrolytically reduced water.

In the present invention, the electrolytically reduced water is used, particularly in the case of tap water, which is oxidized by chlorine contained in the tap water to prevent the purple ipe component from deteriorating and mixing impurities. Furthermore, by removing active oxygen generated at the time of collision of bark particles with active hydrogen held in tap water or electrolytically reduced water obtained by electrolyzing natural water, purple is removed. This is to prevent deterioration of the ipe component and to obtain a high-quality purple ipe component.

The electrolytic reduced water used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but preferably, tap water using, for example, “Trim Ion TI-8000”, which is an electrolytic reduced water adjuster manufactured by Japan Trim Co., Ltd. Electrolytically reduced water is used among electrolytic acid water and electrolytically reduced water produced by electrolyzing. It is known that the electrolytically reduced water produced by the “trim ion TI-8000” has an alkaline pH of about 9.6, an oxidation-reduction potential of about −274 mV, and contains active hydrogen.

The “electrolytically reduced water” is water obtained by electrolyzing tap water using an electrode plate obtained by calcining platinum on titanium, and is a water rich in active hydrogen having a reducing power. Water with the ability to erase active oxygen.

Usually, two hydrogen atoms (H) are bonded together and exist as hydrogen molecules (H ₂ ), but hydrogen does not exist as molecules, and atoms are present as active hydrogens. is there.

On the other hand, active oxygen is thought to cause various diseases, destroys clean cells from its strong oxidizing power, and causes illness and aging. Active oxygen is in an electrically unstable state with one electron less than normal oxygen, and tries to take electrons from normal cells (oxidation). In this way, the cells that have been deprived of electrons are oxidized and killed.

As described above, active hydrogen is electrically unstable due to the atomic state of hydrogen, but the active hydrogen is associated with electrically unstable active oxygen that causes various diseases. , Harmless (H + O = H ₂ O) and discharged outside the body. That is, active hydrogen has the ability to erase active oxygen.

The fifth step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a step of making bark particles ultrafine and extracting content components. That is, in the fifth step, the flow of the bark particles obtained in the step and the electrolytically reduced water is introduced into a conventionally known ultrafine particle forming apparatus, and the whole bark particles in the flow are removed. It is a step of pulverizing to make ultrafine particles down to nanometer size and extracting content components from the finely divided bark particles.

A conventionally known apparatus can be used as the ultrafine particle forming apparatus. In the present invention, although it is not necessary to limit in particular, for example, an "emulsifying apparatus" conventionally known as Japanese Patent No. 2788010 shown in FIGS. 1 to 8 is preferably made into ultrafine particles by the purple ipe processing method of the present invention. It is recommended to use it as a device.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the ultrafine particle generator M includes a supply tank 11 for the fluid, a high-pressure pump 12 that pressurizes the fluid, and a fluid fed by the high-pressure pump 12. The above-mentioned nanometer size is obtained by colliding bark particles that have been microparticulated by pretreatment under high pressure to pulverize the bark particles, and making the whole bark particles into nanometer size. From the ultrafine particle forming member 13, the bark particles that have been ultrafinely divided up to 2 are immersed in the flow material, and the purple ipe component is eluted and extracted from the flow material. It is composed of ultra-fine bark particles after extracting the discharged purple ipe component, and a storage tank 14 for storing a fluid containing the extracted purple ipe component.

The ultrafine particle member 13 is housed in a casing 15 in which a first disk 16 and a second disk 17 are closely fixed, and these disks 16 and 17 have the above-mentioned flow shape on the plate surface. Through-holes 16a, 16b and 17a, 17b having widths through which objects can pass, and slit-shaped guide grooves 16c, 17c connecting the through-holes 16a, 16b, 17a, 17b are formed, respectively. 18, a guide path 19, a mixing chamber 20, and an outflow path 21 are formed.

The first and second disks 16 and 17 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6. The disks 16 and 17 have the same diameter by a wear-resistant material such as a sintered diamond or a single crystal diamond. Is formed.

As shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 6, the first disc 16 has inflow through holes 16 a and 16 b having the same diameter in a vertically symmetrical position with respect to the center of the plate surface. A first guide groove 16c that communicates the end portions of the through holes 16a and 16b facing each other is formed in the contact surface with the two-disc 17.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 7, the second disc 17 has a second surface so as to be orthogonal to the first guide groove 16 c of the first disc 16 on the close contact surface with the first disc 16. A guide groove 17c is formed, and outflow through holes 17a and 17b having the same diameter are formed at both ends of the second guide groove 17c.

The first and second discs 16 and 17 having the above-described configuration are closely overlapped so that the first guide groove 16c and the second guide groove 17c are orthogonal to each other in a cross shape, and the first cylindrical body 22 and the second disc The cylindrical body 23 is housed and fixed in a casing 15 formed by integrally connecting the cylindrical body 23 with bolts 24 to form the ultrafine particle member 13. An opening 22 a on one side of the first cylindrical body 22 constituting the casing 15 is connected to the high-pressure pump 12, and an opening 23 a on the other side of the second cylindrical body 23 is connected to the storage tank 14. Has been.

In the casing 15, the first guide groove 16 c and the second guide groove 17 c of the first disc 16 and the second disc 17 which are closely superposed and fixed are orthogonal to each other in a cross shape, and the first and second circles are formed. A mixing chamber 20 is formed at the center of the plates 16 and 17. The inflow through holes 16a and 16b pass through the inflow path 18, the first guide groove 16c through the guide path 19 toward the center, and the second guide groove 17c and the outflow through holes 17a and 17b through the outflow path 21. Respectively. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, a liquid passage through which the fluid flows is formed in the order of the inflow path 18, the guide path 19, the mixing chamber 20, and the outflow path 21.

In the figure, 16d and 17d are positioning through holes provided in the first and second discs 16 and 17, respectively, and the first and second discs 16 and 17 are closely polymerized and fixed. When the first through second positioning holes 16d and 17d are polymerized so as to be able to pass through, and pins or the like (not shown) are fixed to the respective positioning through holes 16d and 17d. The two guide grooves 16c and 17c can accurately fix the first and second disks 16 and 17 orthogonally in a cross shape.

The operation of the ultrafine particle forming apparatus M having the above-described configuration will be described. The ultrafine particle forming member 13 is configured by the high-pressure pump 12 with the flow material containing the bark particles charged into the supply tank 11 at a pressure of about 130 Mpa. To the opening 22a on one side of the casing 15 to be pumped. The flow material fed to the opening 22a on the one side flows at a higher speed than the two inflow through holes 16a and 16b of the first disc 16, and further flows into the inflow through hole 16a. A high-speed flow flows in the inflow path 18 formed by 16b and both ends of the first guide groove 16c, and then formed by the plate surface of the second disc 17 and the first guide groove 16c. The flow direction is changed to the guide paths 19 and 19 with opposite pumping directions.

Then, in the mixing chamber 20 formed in the center part perpendicular to the first guide groove 16c and the second guide groove 17c, the two flows of the flow material facing in the pressure-feeding direction collide violently, thereby causing the flow. When the bark particles in the material collide and change the direction of the second guide groove 17c orthogonal to the cross shape by 90 degrees, the fluid collides and turbulences, and further collides with the wall surface of the second guide groove 17c. As a result, cavitation occurs.

As the cavity of the cavitation collapses, a very high pressure difference is locally caused to pulverize solid particles (bark particles) in the fluid. This solid particle pulverization phenomenon occurs within an extremely short time of several microseconds, and a powerful energy is instantaneously applied to the fluid, and the entire bark particle is made into ultrafine particles of nanometer size by this energy. Then, the ultrafinely divided bark particles are immersed in the flow material, so that the purple ipe component in each bark particle is eluted and extracted in the flow material in a very short time.

When the fluid containing bark particles collides at a high pressure and momentary energy is applied to the fluid, water molecules are decomposed to generate strong active oxygen such as OH radicals. Reacts with the purple ipe component, and the purple ipe component oxidizes and deteriorates. Therefore, in the present invention, since electrolytically reduced water containing active hydrogen is used, the active oxygen generated in the ultrafine particle work is eliminated with active hydrogen to prevent the purple ipe component from being deteriorated due to oxidation. ing.

As described above, by converting the whole bark particles into ultrafine particles, the extracted purple ipe component and the fluid containing the extracted ultrafine particles after bark are extracted from the second guide groove 17c. The first disc 16 is discharged into the outflow passage 21 formed by the plate surface and the outflow through holes 17a and 17b through the opening 23a on the other side of the casing 15, and is stored in the storage tank 14. The Even while passing through the outflow path 21, the flow material collides with the wall surface of the second guide groove 17c, that is, the wall surface of the portion facing the mixing chamber 20 and the end wall surface communicating with the outflow through holes 17a and 17b. As a result, the bark particles are further refined to further extract the purple ipe component.

That is, the ultrafine particle device M is provided with two disks 16 and 17 which are densely superposed and fixed in the flow path of the flow material, and slit-shaped formed on the superposition surfaces of the disks 16 and 17. By passing the fluid through the guide grooves 16c and 17c and changing the direction of the flow, collision with the wall surface and collision between the bark particles in the fluid are performed to make the whole bark particles ultrafine. The finely divided bark particles are discharged out of the casing 15 and stored in the storage tank 14 together with the purple ipe component eluted and extracted in the fluid.

When the ultrafine particle formation of the bark particles input to the ultrafine particle generator M does not reach a predetermined particle size, for example, a nanometer size, the fluid once stored in the storage tank 14 is transferred to the high pressure pump 12. Thus, bark particles that have been made ultrafine to a predetermined particle diameter can be obtained by pumping into the opening portion 12a, throwing them into the ultrafine atomization apparatus M a plurality of times, and repeating the ultrafine particle formation step.

When the ultrafine particle forming step is repeated a plurality of times, the surface area of the whole bark particle increases as the particle size becomes ultrafine, so that the moisture ratio decreases, so that it can be smoothly pumped to the opening 12a. Further, the active hydrogen disappears in a short time, and if necessary, a small amount of the electrolytic reduced water is newly added, for example, 2 to 10% by weight, preferably 5%. % Is added to the flow material to increase the water ratio to achieve smooth pumping to the opening 12a, and newly added ultra-fine particles of electroreduction water that has been added and mixed with new ultrafine particles. The active oxygen generated again by the forming step may be erased to form ultrafine particles.

Furthermore, when the electrolytically reduced water has an alkaline pH of about 9 to 10, the ultrafine particle of the bark particles is improved in the extraction efficiency of the purple ipe component, and the purple ipe component in the bark particles is almost a fluid. It elutes in and extracted.

The sixth step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a drying step. That is, in the sixth step, the flow material obtained by extracting the purple ipe component from the ultrafine particle bark particles in the fifth step is dried, and the water in the flow material is evaporated to form ultrafine particles. In this step, the purple ipe component containing bark particles is taken out as a lump of dry purple ipe component.

In the drying step of the sixth step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention, heat drying by applying hot air of 100 ° C. or higher by a spray dryer can be employed, but freeze drying by freeze drying is preferably employed. In other words, freeze-drying is a bark particle obtained by freezing a fluid to about −40 ° C. and then gradually returning it to room temperature over a period of about 12 hours to evaporate water in the fluid to form ultrafine particles. The content component of purple ipe containing sucrose is taken out as a dry purple ipe component without being affected by heat. In particular, in the second step as well, in the same way as in the drying step in the sixth step, freeze-drying by freeze-drying yields a high-quality purple ipe component without being affected by heat. be able to.

The seventh step of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 1 of the present invention is a crushing step of the dry purple ipe component. That is, in the seventh step, since the dried purple ipe component after the water evaporated through the drying step in the sixth step is agglomerated, the dried purple ipe component is formed into a powdery final product or tableted. In order to obtain a final product such as a tablet, the massive dry purple ipe component is finely disintegrated. And this crushing is made into a predetermined particle diameter using a pulverizer.

After completion of the seventh step, for example, when the crushed dry purple ipe component is used as a health food, the crushed dry purple ipe component is packaged as it is, or the dried purple ipe component is used as the dried purple ipe component. Other ingredients are added and mixed, for example, tableted by a tableting machine to form a tablet.

Next, in the purple ipe processing method according to Example 2 of the present invention, any of alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, or pure water not containing chlorine is used instead of the electrolytically reduced water used in Example 1. That water is used. When water containing chlorine such as tap water is used, the purple ipe component is oxidized and deteriorated by the chlorine, so that the deterioration is prevented and the contamination of impurities is prevented. To obtain said chlorine-free alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, or
Either pure water is used.

The alkaline ionized water is negative water produced by electrolyzing tap water using a commercially available alkaline ionized water generator, and is preferably alkaline having a pH of about 9 to 10. By using this, the extraction efficiency of purple ipe component is increased. Moreover, the mineral water and the natural water use what is marketed, Furthermore, pure water uses what was manufactured with the pure water manufacturing apparatus.

The purple ipe processing method according to the second embodiment is the same as the purple ipe processing method according to the first embodiment except that the fifth step is slightly different, and the other steps are the same. That is, in the fifth step in Example 2, the electrolytically reduced water of Example 1 does not contain chlorine obtained by electrolyzing tap water or natural water, shows a numerical value having an oxidation-reduction potential of 200 mV or less, and active. In contrast to water containing hydrogen, alkaline ionized water, mineral water, natural water, or pure water used in Example 2 is water that does not contain active hydrogen. Although there is no action of erasing the active oxygen generated at the time of collision as in Example 1, the quality is only slightly inferior to that of Example 1, and there is no inferiority even when used as a health food.

In Example 2, as in Example 1, when the ultrafine particle forming step is repeated a plurality of times until a bark particle having a predetermined particle size is obtained, the entire bark particle is gradually reduced as it becomes ultrafine particles. Since the water ratio decreases due to the increase in the surface area, there is a possibility that clogging may occur due to the fact that the water cannot be smoothly pumped to the opening 12a, so if necessary, the alkali ion water, mineral water, A small amount of natural water or pure water, for example, about 2 to 10% by weight, preferably about 5% by weight, is additionally mixed in the fluid to increase the water ratio and to smoothly pump the opening 12a. For example, ultrafine particles may be used.

The purple ipe processing method according to Example 3 omits the step of drying the purple ipe bark after washing in the first step in Examples 1 and 2 to remove foreign matters such as dirt and dust, The process proceeds to the third step (second step in the case of Example 3) of Examples 1 and 2 in which the purple ipe bark after washing is crushed and sterilized. In the case of Example 3, since the purple ipe bark that was washed and dried in the first step is pulverized by a pulverizer, the pulverization efficiency is somewhat inferior, but it is possible to make the purple ipe bark that is not dried into ultrafine particles. .

The steps of the purple ipe processing method according to Example 3 after the pulverization and sterilization steps of the second step are the same from the fourth step of the first and second embodiments, and the description thereof is omitted. .
