Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid which is a raw material for reagent, medicine, healthy food, etc., in high purity by hydrolyzing a fish oil readily and inexpensively available and used as a raw material with a specific lipase to advantageously afford an intermediate raw material and treating the obtained intermediate raw material in combination with prescribed concentration processes. CONSTITUTION:A fish oil (preferably bluish fish such as sardine or Pacific saury) is hydrolyzed with a lipase derived from the Genus Candida having characteristics hardly hydrolyzing docosahexaenoic acid. The obtained decomposition mixture is divided into a fatty acid and glyceride. Then each ingredient is esterified in the presence of a small amount of a catalyst (e.g., hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid) in a lower alcohol to afford a fatty acid lower alkylester. Then highly unsaturated fatty acid ingredient is concentrated by an urea addition method and further concentrated and purified by supercritical carbon dioxide gas extraction method or liquid chromatography method to each provide eicosapentaenoic acid from the fatty acid ingredient and docosahexaenoic acid from the glyceride ingredient.

Centrifugal liquid-liquid chromatography is a method in which two types of solvents with different specific gravities are applied to a stock solution of a liquid mixture to separate a specific substance from other substances in the mixture. The feature of liquid-liquid extraction is that it forms two layers, the stock solution and the solvent, and separates these two layers based on the difference in specific gravity.Centrifugal force is used to selectively transfer the desired substance to the solvent layer in a short period of time. Can be moved and separated. For the purification of fish oil decomposition products, use n-hexane as the mobile phase and acetonitrile or 90% ethanol as the stationary phase.The components eluted with the mobile phase are the positive elution fraction.The direction of liquid feeding is reversed and the stationary phase is fed. The components remaining in the stationary phase are used as the inversion elution fraction.

(Effects of the invention) By selectively hydrolyzing eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid with a specific lipase and performing separation treatment using fish oil as a raw material as in the present invention, comparison with raw materials obtained by direct hydrolysis is achieved. As a result, an intermediate raw material that is advantageous for high-purity concentration of eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid can be obtained, and in the past, complicated separation processes were required to concentrate eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid from the same raw material. However, by combining specific concentration steps as in the present invention, it has become possible to separately obtain large amounts of highly purified eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. Due to its nature, high-purity eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid can be easily obtained in large quantities from inexpensive fish oil, so it can be supplied at low cost as a material for reagents, medicines, health foods, etc.

Of this, 50 g was subjected to repeated molecular distillation twice under the same conditions as in Example I to obtain 15.2 g of both docosahexaenoic acid (eicosaben citric acid 31.2%, docosahexaenoic acid 35.4%).

Further, 1000 g of the fatty acid fraction was ethyl esterified in the same manner as in Example 1, and 916 g of fatty acid ester was recovered. From there, 400 g of fatty acid ester was taken and added with urea in the same manner as in Example 1 to obtain 108 g of concentrated ester. As a result of analysis by gas chromatography, the concentrations of eicosaben citric acid and docosahexaenoic acid in the concentrated ester were 38.3% for eicosapentaenoic acid, 32.4% for docosahexaenoic acid, and 29.3% for others. Of this, 50 g was subjected to repeated molecular distillation twice under the same conditions as in Example 1, and 12.3 g of eicosapentaenoic acid fraction (36.8% eicosaben citric acid, 32% docosahexaenoic acid) was obtained.
.. 4%, others 30.8%). It can be seen that the purity of the target product is lower than in Example 1 because the treatment with lipase derived from Candida group bacteria is not performed.

Fish oil is hydrolyzed by lipase derived from Candida family bacteria, the resulting decomposed mixture is separated into fatty acids and glycerides, each of these components is converted into lower alkyl esters, and then polyunsaturated fatty acids are obtained by a urea addition method. By concentrating the components and further concentrating and purifying them using any of the methods of molecular distillation, supercritical carbon dioxide gas extraction, or liquid chromatography, eicosapentaenoic acid or its ester is converted from the fatty acid component into the glyceride component. A method for producing highly unsaturated fatty acids, which comprises obtaining docosahexaenoic acid or its ester from.
