DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below. First, the Fengxian flower alcohol extract used in the present invention will be described. Fengxian flower is an annual plant belonging to the genus Trichoderma genus, which belongs to the family Sorrelaceae (including closely related species and subspecies). To use). After collecting the whole grass from summer to autumn and using it as it is or drying it in the sun,
Fruits are collected before maturity, dried in the sun, and only seeds are collected after drying. The components are naphthoquinones, anthocyanins and thianidine for flowers, kaempferol for foliage,
Contains quercetin, etc.
It is known to contain fatty oils, ergosterol. It is said to have blood purification and blood vessel dilation effects. The Fengxian flower may be collected during the flowering stage and shaded for 2 to 5 days. The cut whole grass and petals have an alcohol content of 1
Immerse in an aqueous solution containing 0 ° or more of alcohol. The alcohol used in the present invention is preferably an aqueous alcohol-containing aqueous solution of 10 degrees or more in order to extract the active ingredient of the whole flower of Hosenbana, but other distilled spirits, brewed liquors, mixed liquors, and synthetic liquors. Alternatively, white liquor (shochu) or the like may be used. In addition, a methyl alcohol-containing aqueous solution or an isopropyl alcohol-containing aqueous solution having a temperature of 10 degrees or more can be used depending on the application. The compounding ratio is preferably 2 to 5 parts by weight with respect to 10 parts by weight of white liquor. Soak for 2 weeks to 6 months, preferably for 6 months to 1 month. After the immersion, the residue is separated by means such as a dry mesh method to obtain an alcohol extract of Fengxian flower. This alcohol extract of naive quince is a naphthoquinone derivative (vitamin K
), Kaempferol (a precursor of naphthoquinone), flavonoids, ergosterol (vitamin D ₂
As a main component. Further, it has a feature that the pH is close to the pH of human blood (about 7.4) (7.2). In addition, this Fengxian alcohol extract can change substances that should be oily (hydrophobic) to water-soluble (hydrophilic), and can be fused (emulsion) under a certain ratio of water and fat (oil). ). The various functions of Fengxian alcohol extract are listed as biochemical reducing action, dechlorination action, detoxification action, enzymatic proteolysis action, bactericidal action, cholesterol dissolving action, blood purification and vasodilator action, smooth muscle contraction action. Etc. The enzymatic proteolytic action of this dissolves the epidermal cells of soybean cells of okara, which are made of protein, and the vitamin K, vitamin B ₆ , vitamin A, vitamin E, and vitamin C trapped in them are dissolved in an aqueous alcohol solution. Easy to elute. Therefore,
Some okara liquors are involved in the role of hemostasis, vitamin K, which helps calcium absorption, the important role in amino acid metabolism, and the regulation of steroid hormones.
It contains a lot of vitamin B ₆ , vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin C which cause neuritis and the like. Therefore, it is an okara liquor containing a lot of useful vitamins for the body. Okara is very easily rotted and must be treated in a short time.However, since Hosenka alcohol extract has a biochemical reducing action, it is possible to prevent rot by applying Osenkara alcohol extract to Okara to prevent rot.
