JPH02249553A - Deodorant for fumigation prepared by tea leaf essence and tea leaf powder - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve a deodorizing effect by a method wherein a deodorant is prepared by a mixture of a tea leaf essence produced by acting cellulose and pectin hydrolyzing enzyme and tea leaf powder. CONSTITUTION:A deodorant is prepared by a mixture of a tea leaf essence produced by acting cellulose and pectin hydrolyzing enzyme on the tea leaf of green tea and tea leaf powder. The produces deodorant generates an aroma peculiar to toasted tea during fumigation and is prevented from generating smoke, resulting in the possibility to deodorize a smell without decontaminating air in a room.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a deodorant, and more particularly to a deodorizer for fumigation comprising a mixture of green tea leaf extract and tea leaf powder obtained by the action of an enzyme.

[Conventional technology]

Currently, there are many deodorants on the market, but the majority are deodorants and cannot completely eliminate odors.

Tea has traditionally been said to have a deodorizing effect, and natural deodorants made from tea leaf extracts are commercially available, but these do not require water or alcoholic solutions of tea leaf extracts to be added to food products, such as chewing gum and ham. It was mixed with cosmetics, such as conditioners, shampoos, etc., sprayed on household items such as refrigerators, trash cans, etc., and sprayed on geriatric medical products, wet towels, etc.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, since the deodorizing effect of the above-mentioned deodorants was not perfect, the present invention provides a deodorant that is synthesized from natural products, is harmless to humans and animals, and has a complete deodorizing effect. The goal is to provide the following.

[Means to solve the problem]

Tea is a familiar plant from the Camellia family. The types of tea include fermented tea and non-fermented tea, but the ingredients of non-fermented tea (green tea) unique to Japan include amino acids, carbohydrates, fiber, pectin, chlorophyll, vitamins, caffeine, and tannic acid. Yes, 19-20% fiber as the main component,
Carbohydrates (fructose, glucose, sucrose): 48-39
%.

In the present invention, chlorophyll among the above-mentioned tea leaf components was previously said to have a deodorizing effect, so we made a 1% aqueous solution of chlorophyll copper salt and conducted an experiment in which 100 cc of it was sprayed in a geriatric ward with 6 beds, but it was not found to be very effective. I couldn't.

In addition, 1 tea leaf extract, Camellia 10-8, manufactured by N Company, was added to
A deodorant containing 0% by weight, 45% by weight of propylene glycol, and 45% by weight of ethyl alcohol was sprayed and applied in the same manner as above, but it was not possible to eliminate the bad odor in the hospital room.

Therefore, in the present invention, we conducted the same deodorizing experiment as described above using tea leaf extract obtained by the action of cellulose-degrading enzyme and pectin-degrading enzyme, but although it had a deodorizing effect, it was weak and we believe that it has no value as a deodorant. I was disappointed.

By the way, when this tea confectionery extract was fumigated, the aroma and moisture evaporated, filling the hospital room with the characteristic odor of Haujicha, and the bad odor disappeared.

Next, dry yeast (Saccharomyces, cerevisiae) was applied to the above tea confectionery extract, fermented at 37°C to decompose the sugar, and the resulting liquid was fumigated.The water evaporated and the smoke smelled like cheese, leaving a burnt interior inside the room. However, the odor remained and the deodorizing effect was weak.

Next, tea leaf ingredients such as fructose, glucose, and sucrose were burnt, but their deodorizing power was weak.

From the above facts, it has been inferred that carbohydrates in tea leaf components play an important role in deodorization, and in particular, glycosides of carbohydrates and fibers have a great effect on deodorization.

Based on the above experimental results, the present invention was developed based on the viewpoint that fumigation of glycosides of carbohydrates and fibers in tea leaves has a great deodorizing effect. That is, the present invention is a deodorizing agent for fumigation comprising a mixture of tea leaf extract and tea leaf powder obtained by treating green tea confectionery with cellulose and pectin-degrading enzymes.

The degrading enzyme used in the present invention may be any enzyme as long as it decomposes cellulose and pectin, but the trade names Sumiteam C and Sumiteam MC were suitable.

The present invention will be explained below with reference to Examples.

[Example] A. Production of enzymatically decomposed tea leaves 500 g of tea leaves were washed with water to remove residual pesticides, treated with boiling water for 2 minutes to soften the tea leaf cells, added with 1000 g of purified water, chopped into small pieces with a juicer, and quenched. Adjust the pH to 5.0 with acid, add 0.5 g of Sumiteam C (cellulose degrading enzyme) titer 15000/g manufactured by Shin Nippon Chemical Industry and Sumiteam MC.
Add 0.5 g of pectin-degrading enzyme and let it work for 3 hours at 50°C with stirring, then filter through cotton cloth.
0 g of decomposition liquid was obtained.

The color tone of the decomposition liquid is dark green-yellow, it has an aroma, and the specific gravity is d2.

C. Deodorizer for fumigation consisting of tea leaf extract and tea leaf powder mixture Add 5 g of carboxymethyl cellulose to 100 g of the tea leaf extract obtained in step A above, stir to form a paste, add 45 g of tea leaf powder, knead, and mix vertically and horizontally. The pellets were molded to a thickness of 3 cm and dried to produce pellets weighing approximately 1 g each. When the same beret was placed in a metal container and heated and fumigated, it was sensually verified that the characteristic smell of green tea filled the hospital room and the bad odor disappeared.

It was also found that deodorization can be sustained by several rounds of fumigation. Also, this beret does not emit smoke during fumigation and does not pollute the indoor air, making it an optimal deodorizer.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The deodorizer obtained by the present invention emits a fragrance unique to maggot tea during fumigation, and does not emit smoke, so it can completely eliminate bad odors without polluting indoor air. It is expected to be used in many fields.
