Description

  The present invention relates to a method for producing papaya leaf extract and its application to cigarettes.

  As tobacco and health issues have become increasingly focused, the safety of cigarette smoking, improved health functions, and the reduction of harmful components in cigarette smoke have become necessary issues for the development of cigarettes. Therefore, ginseng tobacco, mint tobacco, etc. appeared in the market. It is a mixture of high quality substances with unique health benefits such as ginseng and mint in chopped tobacco. The main research in China is related to the measurement of the chemical composition of papaya and the medical field, and there are no reports of papaya applied to tobacco.

  Papaya (Carica papaya L) is a tropical and subtropical evergreen fruit tree that is peculiar to some parts of South China and Taiwan, Fujian and Yunnan. It has a high yield, beautiful color, and is rich in sugar and vitamins. In particular, Papaw is very nutritious. Papaya leaves are Chinese medicine and have a cardiotonic effect and an effect of removing swelling. There are still no reports on the chemical composition of the volatile oil of papaya leaves and its application to tobacco and cigarettes.

  Qualitative analysis of papaya leaf volatile oil by GC × GC / TOF-MS, combined with chemical components with similarity ≧ 800, combined with total ion chromatogram, reverse similarity and possibility data, and high consistency Determine 383 chemical components (see Table 1). In addition, 37 types of alcohol, 53 types of aldehyde, 21 types of acid, 49 types of alkane, 20 types of alkene, 82 types of ketone, and 31 types of ester are included.

  Some chemical components in papaya leaf extract have special scent characteristics and medicinal properties. Papaya leaf volatile oil contains many components (see Table 2). For example, caryophyllene, dihydroactinidiolide, linalool, menthol, geranylacetone, ionone, damacenone, pyrazine, and pyrrole compounds are all important fragrance components. Among them, dihydroactinidiolide is said to be a fragrance with a noble and clean fragrance because of its intense fresh leaf and grassy scent. Caryophyllene has a scent that is intermediate between clove oil and turpentine oil, has a spicy scent similar to clove oil and a wood scent, and has a slight bitter taste. Menthol is refreshing, sweet and cool with a refreshing mint feel. Diffusion is strong but sustainability is weak. On the other hand, the main antipyretic components of papaya leaf volatile oil are characterized by containing sweet scent, fruity scent, and tobacco scent. These components have the effect of stimulating and increasing the cigarette scent. It has an alleviating property, covers dirty air, and enhances the flavor of cigarettes. It can be applied to increase the scent of cigarettes.

  Ionene, limonene, osymene, caryophyllene, etc., which are some components in papaya leaf volatile oil, have anti-inflammatory, coughing, shortness of breath and action to remove sputum, and are clinically used to treat bronchitis. Limonene is a monocyclic monoterpene compound, is a colorless oily liquid, and has a citrus scent. Cough suppression, sputum removal, bacteriostatic action. These chemical ingredients can alleviate respiratory diseases caused by tobacco and suppress coughing, so they can be used as tobacco additives. The safety at the time can be increased.

  The present invention provides a method for producing papaya leaf extract and its application to cigarettes, with a clear and clear scent of the tobacco produced, increasing the satisfaction and comfort level of smoking, moderate smoke concentration and momentum. To do.

  The method for producing papaya leaf extract and its application to cigarettes is to obtain papaya leaf extract by water extraction or alcohol extraction of different concentration, and use papaya leaf extract of 0.02-5% of the weight of the cut tobacco that has been prepared. Spray evenly onto the chopped tobacco to produce tobacco.

  As is understood from the evaluation and analysis results of the test in which the papaya leaf extract was added to the cigarette, the present invention is harmonized with the scent of tobacco, improves the scent quality, is rich in scent and refreshed. Crisp, clear, soft and fine, with a long lasting feeling, increased smoking satisfaction, reduced irritation, increased smoking comfort, moderate smoke concentration and momentum is there.

  Next, the present invention will be described in detail using specific examples. The following examples are used for explaining the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention.

  Specific examples of the method for producing papaya leaf extract and its application to cigarettes are as follows.

First, papaya leaves are finely crushed, 20 g of finely crushed papaya leaves powder is put into a 500 ml flask, 120 g, 50% ethanol is added, and ultrasonic extraction is performed at a constant temperature of 60 ° C. for 6 hours. Then, after the extract is centrifuged using a high-speed centrifuge, the supernatant is concentrated to a paste, transferred to a brown glass bottle, sealed, and used as a spare.
The prepared papaya leaf paste concentrate is dissolved and diluted with 70% ethanol to form a papaya leaf extract solution. Next, 0.02% of papaya leaf extract (0.02 g) is taken out per 100 g of chopped tobacco. After the diluted solution is sprayed evenly on the tobacco, the sprayed tobacco is allowed to stand in a constant temperature and humidity box at a temperature of 22 ° C ± 1 ° C and RH 60% ± 2% for 48 hours. Is completed.
The results of the evaluation analysis of the test of adding papaya leaf extract to cigarettes are as follows. The papaya leaf extract harmonizes with the scent of tobacco, improves the quality of the scent, is rich in the scent of tobacco, the scent is refreshingly clear and crisp, soft and fine, and has a long lasting feeling. Yes, it increases smoking satisfaction, irritation is clearly reduced, smoking comfort is enhanced, reverberation is enjoyed, smoke concentration and momentum are moderate.

First, 50 g of papaya leaves are taken out, put into a 2 L flask, 350 g, 65% ethanol is added, and extraction is performed by stirring in a constant temperature water bath at 65 ° C. for 8.5 hours. The papaya leaf extract obtained by filtering the extract is transferred to a brown glass bottle and sealed for use as a reserve.
First, after removing 100 g of chopped tobacco, 3.5 g of the papaya leaf extract is taken out. After spraying the extracted liquid evenly on the chopped tobacco, the sprayed chopped tobacco is allowed to equilibrate for 48 hours in a constant temperature and humidity box at a temperature of 22 ℃ ± 1 ℃ and RH60% ± 2%. , Tobacco is completed.

First, 100 g of papaya leaves are taken out, put into a 2 L flask, 1000 g of water is added, and extraction is performed by stirring for 8 hours in a constant temperature water bath at 80 ° C. Then, after the extract is filtered, it is transferred to a brown glass bottle and sealed for use as a spare.
100 g of chopped tobacco is taken out, 4.5 g of papaya leaf extract stored in the brown glass bottle is taken out, and the extract is sprayed evenly on the chopped tobacco. The sprayed chopped tobacco is left in a thermostatic and humidity box at a temperature of 22 ° C ± 1 ° C and RH 60% ± 2% for 48 hours to equilibrate.

  The results of the evaluation analysis of the test of adding papaya leaf extract to cigarettes are as follows. That is, the papaya leaf extract harmonizes with the scent of tobacco, improves the quality of the scent, is rich in tobacco scent, is clear and clear, soft and fine, and has a long lasting feeling that is good when smoking , Comfort is clearly reduced, smoking comfort is increased, smoke concentration and momentum are moderate.

  The difference between the first embodiment, the second embodiment, and the third embodiment of the present invention is that the papaya leaf test amount, the refining method, and the extraction time are different. However, all samples are papaya leaves.

  The foregoing are three specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the design concept of the present invention is not limited to this. Thus, using this concept, it is explicitly stated here that all non-substantial changes made to the present invention are considered infringements of the protection scope of the present invention.
