[Detailed description of the invention]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a deodorizing agent and, more particularly, to a deodorizing agent useful in the food field. Deodorants and deodorants are used in various fields, but development in the food field has not been sufficient, and dimethylaminoallylsulfonate, acrylamide, glucosamine, etc. are effective (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No.
48-23946) and a breath odor remover containing cyclodextrin as an active ingredient (Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 122709/1982)
etc., and there is a strong desire for the emergence of deodorizers and deodorizers that are highly safe and have good effects. An object of the present invention is to provide a deodorizing agent that can meet the above demands. That is, the present invention relates to a deodorizing agent containing crushed sake lees as an active ingredient. Sake lees is the residue left after separating sake from moromi, and generally contains about 8 to 12% alcohol.
In the present invention, this pulverized product of sake lees is used, but preferably the sake lees is coarsely crushed, dried, and then pulverized. Drying is
It may be carried out for 10 to 24 hours at a temperature of 30 to 50°C. Next, the powdered sake lees is pulverized by appropriate means to obtain powdered sake lees with a diameter of about 0.01 to 2 mm. The pulverized sake lees obtained in this way can be used as is as a deodorizing agent.
Depending on the purpose of use, it may be used by dissolving or suspending it in an organic solvent such as propylene glycol, glycerin, ethanol, etc. that is acceptable as a food additive, water, etc., and diluting it as appropriate. The effects of the deodorizing agent of the present invention are wide-ranging,
For example, it has an excellent deodorizing effect on unpleasant odor substances such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, triethylamine, and methyl mercaptan. Furthermore, since the deodorizing agent of the present invention is derived from natural products, there is no need to worry about safety when using it. Therefore, the deodorizing agent of the present invention can be suitably used by adding it to various foods such as soy milk and sausages containing fish and poultry meat, or by adding it to chewing gum and mouthwash. Next, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to examples. Example 100g of commercially available sake lees was coarsely ground and dried at 70°C for 24 hours. Thereafter, this was ground in a coffee mill to obtain a white powder. This powder has a more fragrant aroma and rich amino acid taste than unprocessed sake lees. This sake lees powder was dissolved in propylene glycol to obtain a 10% solution of deodorizing agent. A deodorization test was conducted using this.

[Table] * Propylene glycol application example 1 Chewing gas was produced according to the following recipe using a 10% propylene glycol solution of the sake lees powder obtained in the example. A sensory test for bad breath was conducted on this chewing gum. As a result, the fifth
It was found that good results were obtained as shown in the table. Incidentally, the sensory evaluation of the halitosis removing effect was carried out by the following method. In order to comprehensively examine the effectiveness of removing bad breath, we investigated artificial breath odor, tobacco odor, and garlic odor.
A sensory test was conducted in vitro. Artificial bad breath was prepared using hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, and dimethyl sulfide, which are the three major components of bad breath, in the following manner. Blow hydrogen sulfide gas into 200ml of pure water at 15℃ for about 1 hour to saturate it with hydrogen sulfide. 200 mg of dimethyl sulfide and 200 mg of methyl mercaptan were added to 100 ml of a saturated hydrogen sulfide solution and mixed well to prepare an artificial bad breath solution. Dilute the artificial bad breath liquid 100 times with pure water,
Gargle with ml for 1 minute, then exhale immediately after 3 ml

were evaluated. To get rid of the cigarette smell, smoke 3 Highlights in 3 minutes using the same Friend Holder (manufactured by Lotsute Electronics Co., Ltd.) to a length of 2 cm from the base of the filter.
The exhaled breath 3 was collected in an odor bag and given an evaluation score of 0. Thereafter, chewing gum containing various active ingredients was chewed for 3 minutes, and breath sample 3 was taken for evaluation. To remove the garlic odor, take 50g of garlic mince (sliced, dried, and crushed into 2-3mm diameter pieces) in a milk needle, add 200ml of warm water (about 40℃), rub well for 10 minutes, and strain through gauze. 160 g of garlic extract was obtained, this extract was diluted 20 times with pure water, 10 ml of this was held in the mouth for 5 minutes, and breath 3 was taken into an odor bag and evaluated as 0. Thereafter, chewing gum containing various active ingredients was chewed for 3 minutes, and the breath 3 was taken into the odor bag again for evaluation. The deodorizing effect was evaluated by five expert panelists according to the evaluation method shown below, using a five-point scale.
