INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION FIELD The present invention relates to an intestinal regulating agent containing hemicellulose B as an active ingredient. Hemicellulose B according to the present invention
Since it is fermented by Bifidobacterium, which is beneficial as an intestinal bacterium, it is thought that it promotes the intestinal proliferation of Bifidobacterium and has an intestinal regulating effect. Technical background Cellulose, hemicellulose, water-soluble and insoluble pectin substances, lignin, chitin, mucilage substances (galactomannan, glucomannan, etc.), seaweed polysaccharides, chemically modified polysaccharides (modified starch, carboxymethyl cellulose), etc. are dietary fibers ( Dietary・
Dietary fiber is an indigestible component of food that is not digested by human digestive enzymes, and has recently attracted attention because its ingestion exhibits beneficial physiological effects. In other words, when you ingest these dietary fibers,
Increases intestinal capacity and fecal volume, increasing intestinal activity, shortening the intestinal transit time of food and inhibiting the absorption of harmful substances. It has been reported that it has physiological effects such as adsorbing and excreting cholesterol, bile sweat acid, and heavy metals, and rendering the intestinal bacteria harmless by favoring beneficial bacteria. On the other hand, Bifidobacterium grows in the human intestinal tract, and by lowering the pH in the intestine, it exhibits an antagonistic effect on the growth of putrefactive bacteria and inhibits the production of putrefactive products. It is known to be a useful bacterial species. As a result of examining the fermentability of water-soluble polysaccharides contained in the above-mentioned dietary fibers to intestinal bacteria, the present inventor found that
It was discovered that water-soluble polysaccharides are selectively fermented by Bifidobacterium, but not by putrefactive bacteria, leading to the present invention. Problems to be Solved by the Invention An object of the present invention is to provide an intestinal regulating agent containing hemicellulose B as an active ingredient, which is selectively fermented by Bifidobacterium, which is a beneficial intestinal bacterium. The present invention will be explained in detail below. Structure of the Invention The present invention is characterized by an intestinal regulating agent containing hemicellulose B as an active ingredient. That is, by ingesting hemicellulose B, it promotes the growth of Bifidobacterium, which is an intestinal bacterium, and thereby exhibits an intestinal regulating effect due to the physiological action of the polysaccharide itself and the physiological action of Bifidobacterium. It is. Means for Solving the Problems Hemicellulose B used as an active ingredient in the present invention is obtained by degreasing a by-product obtained during the selection of shell materials such as rice bran, wheat bran or corn husk with an organic solvent such as n-hexane. , add sodium hydroxide solution and extract in a container purged with nitrogen gas. After removing the residue from this extract by operations such as centrifugation and neutralizing it, the supernatant was deproteinized using an ion exchange resin, desalted as appropriate, and ethanol was added to remove the hemicellulose B precipitate. When this precipitate is appropriately dried, a powder of hemicellulose B is obtained. Since the hemicellulose B powder thus obtained is tasteless and water-soluble, it can be taken in the form of a tablet or drink, or it can be mixed with food and taken as is. Note that this hemicellulose B is a polysaccharide in the form of arabinose and xylose bonded together. next,
Table 1 shows the composition of water-soluble polysaccharides derived from defatted rice bran and wheat bran.

[Table] Next, the results of a fermentability test of the hemicellulose B powder against intestinal bacteria are shown. Fermentability test on intestinal bacteria Test method: The test was carried out using human-derived strains belonging to the genus Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Clostridium, Staphylococcus, and Bacteroides. A PYF liquid medium was used for the Bacteroides genus, and 0.25% water-soluble polysaccharide was added aseptically to each medium. Each bacterial cell suspension was inoculated into the medium so that the number of bacteria was 10 5 to 10 6 and cultured anaerobically for 48 hours. Meanwhile, glucose 0.5% as a control
Each bacterial cell was cultured in the same manner using the supplemented medium and a sugar-free medium as a blind test. The fermentability of each bacterial cell is measured at 660nm of the glucose culture solution.

[Table] The above test results show that hemicellulose B, which is the active ingredient of the present invention, is selectively fermented by Bifidobacterium. EXAMPLES The present invention and its effects will be specifically explained below with reference to Examples. Example Preparation of hemicellulose B: Add 0.5N sodium hydroxide solution 1 to 100 g of defatted rice bran, and heat to 1130 g in a container purged with nitrogen gas.
Extracted at strokes/min, 18 hours. This extract was centrifuged (3000 rpm, 10 minutes) to remove residues, neutralized with acetic acid, and then trichloroacetic acid was added to a final concentration of 7% to remove protein and obtain a supernatant.
Next, the mixture was desalted by ultrafiltration, and about 4 times the amount of ethanol as the supernatant was added to obtain a precipitate of water-soluble polysaccharide. This precipitate was dissolved in water and then lyophilized to obtain 4 g of hemicellulose B powder. In addition, when 100g of wheat bran is used in place of the above-mentioned defatted rice bran and treated in the same manner, hemicellulose B6
g of powder was obtained. Intestinal regulating action of hemicellulose B: Next, in order to investigate the intestinal regulating action of the rice bran-derived hemicellulose B obtained as described above, the following animal test was conducted. PH measurement of cecal contents SD rats weighing approximately 70 g (manufactured by Nippon Clea Co., Ltd.)
After being preliminarily fed with a control feed for 7 days, the mice were divided into 2 groups of 4 animals each, fed with the experimental feed shown in Table 5, and fed for 3 weeks. In addition, feed and water were available ad libitum. The PH of the cecal contents was measured using a PH meter after abdominal surgery was performed under ether anesthesia to remove the cecal contents. Table 5 shows the component composition of the feed used in the animal experiment, Table 6 shows the pH of the contents of the caecum after administration of the feed, and Table 7 shows the amount of organic acids in intestinal bacteria metabolites.

[Table] As shown in Table 6, hemicellulose B derived from rice bran
By administering Bifidobacterium, the PH in the cecum decreases, and as shown in Table 7, acetic acid, which is a metabolite of Bifidobacterium, is produced, which is expected to suppress the growth of putrefactive bacteria. . Measurement of the number of Bifidobacterium bacteria in feces: Feces were collected every 0, 1, 2, and 3 weeks during the experimental period, and the number of Bifidobacterium bacteria was determined according to the method of Mitsuoka. The results are shown in the figure.
As seen in the figure, in the rice bran-derived hemicellulose B administration group, the number of Bifidobacterium bacteria increased significantly from the first week.
