Description

本発明は、生薬エキスを含有する液体組成物に関する。さらに詳しくは、生薬エキスを含有し、長期間保存した場合に沈殿や浮遊物の生成が抑制された液体組成物に関し、医薬品、指定医薬部外品及び食品の分野に応用できる。   The present invention relates to a liquid composition containing a herbal extract. More specifically, the present invention relates to a liquid composition containing a herbal extract and in which the formation of precipitates and suspended solids is suppressed when stored for a long period of time, and can be applied to the fields of pharmaceuticals, designated quasi drugs and foods.

生薬は動植物の薬用とする部分、細胞内容物、分泌物、抽出物又は鉱物などである。生薬は特有の効能、効果を有しており、医薬品、指定医薬部外品及び食品の成分・有効成分として利用されてきた。そして、生薬中の成分を抽出した生薬エキスは、医薬品、指定医薬部外品及び食品の分野に属する各種飲料に配合されているが、生薬エキスをそのまま各種飲料に配合した場合、経時的に沈殿や浮遊物が生成するという課題があった。飲料中の生薬エキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物は、商品価値を低下させるばかりでなく、沈殿や浮遊物の中に薬効成分が含まれていた場合、十分な薬効を発揮できない可能性があるため好ましくない。   Herbal medicines are medicinal parts of animals and plants, cell contents, secretions, extracts or minerals. Herbal medicines have specific effects and effects, and have been used as components and active ingredients of pharmaceuticals, designated quasi drugs and foods. The herbal extracts from which the ingredients in the herbal medicine are extracted are blended in various beverages belonging to the fields of pharmaceuticals, designated quasi-drugs and foods. There was a problem of generating floating substances. Precipitates and suspended solids resulting from crude drug extracts in beverages not only reduce the commercial value, but if the precipitate or suspended matter contains medicinal ingredients, it may not be able to exert its full medicinal properties. It is not preferable.

そこで、生薬エキスを飲料に配合する場合において、経時的な沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制するために種々の方法が提案されてきた。例えば、アルギン酸プロピレングリコールエステルを配合したサポニン含有生薬を有効成分とする内服液剤の沈殿抑制方法(特許文献1参照)、ポリオキシエチレン硬化ヒマシ油誘導体及びポリビニルピロリドンを配合した生薬浸出成分を含む水性液剤の生薬成分析出防止方法(特許文献2参照)である。   Therefore, various methods have been proposed in order to suppress the formation of precipitates and suspended matters over time in the case of blending herbal extracts into beverages. For example, an aqueous liquid preparation containing a crude drug leaching component containing a saponin-containing herbal medicine blended with alginate propylene glycol ester as an active ingredient (see Patent Document 1), a polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil derivative and polyvinylpyrrolidone This is a herbal medicine component precipitation prevention method (see Patent Document 2).

しかしながら、これらの方法は、飲料としての服用性や防腐性等の観点から好ましいとされる酸性域での長期保存安定性に課題があり、酸性域においても生薬エキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成が十分に抑制された飲料は、未だに提供されていないというのが実状であった。   However, these methods have a problem in long-term storage stability in the acidic range, which is preferable from the viewpoint of ingestion as a beverage, antiseptic properties, and the like. The actual situation is that beverages whose production is sufficiently suppressed have not yet been provided.

表1より、実施例1の液剤は、チョウジ油及びポリビニルアルコールを配合することにより、ニンジンエキスに起因する沈殿及び浮遊物の生成が抑制されることが確認された。また、実施例1の液剤には、調製直後は勿論のこと、50℃で2ヶ月保存した場合であっても、商品性の上で問題となるような沈殿や浮遊物の生成は認められなかった。   From Table 1, it was confirmed that the liquid preparation of Example 1 suppresses the formation of precipitates and suspended matters due to the carrot extract by adding clove oil and polyvinyl alcohol. In addition, in the liquid preparation of Example 1, not only immediately after preparation, but also when stored at 50 ° C. for 2 months, the formation of precipitates and suspended matters that cause a problem in terms of merchantability was not observed. It was.

一方、比較例1〜3の液剤は、チョウジ油及びポリビニルアルコールを配合しておらず、比較例4〜8の液剤は、ポリビニルアルコールを配合していないが、これらの液剤では、ニンジンエキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制することができず、商品性という観点からも問題があった。   On the other hand, the liquid preparations of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 do not contain clove oil and polyvinyl alcohol, and the liquid preparations of Comparative Examples 4 to 8 do not contain polyvinyl alcohol, but these liquid preparations are caused by carrot extract. It was impossible to suppress the formation of precipitates and suspended solids, and there was a problem from the viewpoint of merchantability.

It was confirmed that generation was suppressed. In addition, the liquid preparations of Examples 2 to 7 were observed immediately after preparation, and even when stored at 50 ° C. for 2 months, formation of precipitates and suspended matters that would cause problems in terms of merchantability was observed. There wasn't.

一方、比較例9の液剤はウイキョウ油を配合しているが、ニンジンエキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制することができず、商品性という観点からも問題があった。どのような精油でも沈殿や浮遊物の発生を抑制できるわけではないことが分かった。また、比較例10の液剤は、チョウジ油及びケイヒ油を配合しておらず、ニンジンエキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制することができず、商品性という観点からも問題があった。   On the other hand, although the liquid agent of the comparative example 9 mix | blended fennel oil, the production | generation of the precipitation resulting from a carrot extract and a suspended | floating matter cannot be suppressed and there also existed a problem also from a viewpoint of commercial property. It was found that not all essential oils can suppress the occurrence of precipitation and suspended matter. In addition, the liquid preparation of Comparative Example 10 does not contain clove oil and cinnamon oil, and can not suppress the formation of precipitates and suspended matters due to the carrot extract, which has a problem from the viewpoint of merchantability. .

Further, purified water was added to make up a total volume of 100 mL. These were filled into glass bottles, capped and sterilized, and then internal liquid preparations were prepared, and Examples 8 to 12 and Comparative Examples 11 to 16 were obtained. In addition, 50 mg of licorice extract is equivalent to 200 mg in terms of the drug substance, 5.56 mg of ginger extract is equivalent to 50 mg in terms of the drug substance, and 400 mg of the chimp extract is equivalent to 2000 mg in terms of the drug substance.

これらの液剤を65℃の恒温槽に2週間保存後、液剤中の沈殿及び浮遊物を目視により評価した。表中の「◎」は沈殿や浮遊物の生成が認められなかったことを示し、「○」は僅かに沈殿や浮遊物の生成が認められたが商品性上問題無いことを示し、「×」は沈殿又は浮遊物の生成が認められたことを示す。   These solutions were stored in a constant temperature bath at 65 ° C. for 2 weeks, and then precipitates and suspended matters in the solutions were visually evaluated. “◎” in the table indicates that no precipitation or suspended matter was observed, and “○” indicates that a slight amount of precipitate or suspended matter was observed, but there was no problem in terms of merchantability. "" Indicates that precipitation or suspended matter was observed.

表2より、実施例8〜12の液剤は、チョウジ油、ケイヒ油及びポリビニルアルコールを配合することにより、カンゾウエキス、ショウキョウエキス及びチンピエキスに起因する沈殿及び浮遊物の生成が抑制されることが確認された。また、実施例1の液剤には、調製直後は勿論のこと、65℃で2週間保存した場合であっても、商品性の上で問題となるような沈殿や浮遊物の生成は認められず、幅広い生薬で効果を有することが分かった。   From Table 2, the liquid agents of Examples 8 to 12 can suppress the formation of precipitates and suspended matters caused by licorice extract, ginger extract and chimpan extract by blending clove oil, cinnamon oil and polyvinyl alcohol. confirmed. In addition, in the liquid preparation of Example 1, not only immediately after the preparation, but also when stored at 65 ° C. for 2 weeks, the formation of precipitates and suspended matters that cause a problem in terms of merchantability was not observed. It was found to have an effect with a wide range of crude drugs.

一方、比較例11、13及び15の液剤は、チョウジ油及びケイヒ油を配合しておらず、カンゾウエキス、ショウキョウエキス及びチンピエキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制することができず、商品性という観点からも問題があった。また、比較例12、14及び16の液剤は、チョウジ油、ケイヒ油及びポリビニルアルコールを配合しておらず、カンゾウエキス、ショウキョウエキス及びチンピエキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成を抑制することができず、商品性という観点からも問題があった。   On the other hand, the liquid preparations of Comparative Examples 11, 13, and 15 do not contain clove oil and cinnamon oil, and cannot suppress the formation of precipitates and suspended matters due to licorice extract, ginger extract and chimpan extract, There was also a problem in terms of merchantability. Moreover, the liquid agent of Comparative Examples 12, 14, and 16 does not contain clove oil, cinnamon oil, and polyvinyl alcohol, and suppresses the formation of precipitates and suspended solids resulting from licorice extract, ginger extract, and chimney extract. There was also a problem from the viewpoint of merchantability.

本発明により、生薬エキスを含有する液体組成物において、精油及びポリビニルアルコールを配合することにより、生薬エキスの全含有成分を含み、且つ、生薬エキスに起因する沈殿や浮遊物の生成が抑制され、服用性が良好で、長期間の保存安定性に優れた生薬エキス含有液体組成物を提供することが可能となった。これにより、商品性の高い生薬エキス含有液体組成物を液剤等として医薬品、指定医薬部外品及び食品の分野において提供することが期待される。   According to the present invention, in a liquid composition containing a herbal extract, by blending essential oil and polyvinyl alcohol, all the ingredients of the herbal extract are included, and the formation of precipitates and suspended matters due to the herbal extract is suppressed, It became possible to provide a herbal extract-containing liquid composition that has good dosing properties and excellent long-term storage stability. As a result, it is expected that a herbal extract-containing liquid composition having high commercial properties will be provided as a liquid in the fields of pharmaceuticals, designated quasi-drugs and foods.
