JPS6168424A - Preparation of garlic pill - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To prepare garlic pill having high garlic content and soft and easily disintegrable texture, and useful as a health food, easily, using only a small amount of pullulan, by adding pullulan and honey to odorless garlic powder, and kneading and granulating the mixture. CONSTITUTION:Odorless garlic powder is prepared by immersing the bulb of garlic in a slightly acidic aqueous solution of an inorganic acid, crushing and drying the garlic, distilling in the presence of water, inoculating Aspergillus oryzae var nie to the distillate, and drying the culture product. The obtained odorless dry garlic powder is added with pullulan and a small amount of honey, and the mixture is kneaded and granulated to obtain the objective garlic pill. The addition of a small amount of honey enables the granulation of the mixture even with a reduced amount of pullulan, and the prepared pill has firm texture resistant to the degradation with time. An odorless, agreeable, and excellent health food containing the nutrient components of garlic, Aspergillus and honey can be prepared by this process.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a method for producing garlic pills.

Although the significance of garlic as a health medicine has been widely recognized for a long time, its field of use is severely restricted due to its unique odor. One of the methods developed to remove this bad odor is the method of Patent No. 420510, in which garlic is soaked in a slightly acidic aqueous solution of an inorganic acid, and then a koji mold called Aspergillus oryzae bal nii is added to the garlic. This is a method of inoculating and culturing garlic, which largely eliminates the bad odor of garlic. Another feature of this odorless garlic is that live koji mold is present in the garlic.

The present inventor noted that if this odorless garlic could be pre-processed, it would become a highly nutritious and easy-to-eat gunpowder.
We have been conducting research to use this odorless garlic as a fire agent. In this research, when the odorless garlic was made into a gunpowder according to the usual pre-processing method, that is, using an excipient such as Kanbai powder in the usual amount, it had almost no binding strength and was dry and completely dry. It turned out that it could not be done ahead of time.

Therefore, in order to increase the binding strength, it was possible to create a ignition agent with 3-4 times the weight of excipients compared to normal ones.
In this method, contaminants are not mixed together, the characteristics of the raw material powder change very quickly over time, there are major problems in the granulation process, and the yield is extremely poor.In addition, the weight deviation is large and the yield is very low. The gunpowder was too hard and clumpy, lacked the texture and flavor of a gunpowder, and had extremely poor disintegration in the mouth and stomach. Furthermore, since the gunpowder obtained by this method used 3 to 4 times as much excipients, the garlic content in Kanjin was extremely small, making it difficult to call it a garlic firepowder. .

In order to solve the difficulties of the above production method, the present inventor conducted further research and found that when pullulan, which had never been used as an excipient, was used as an excipient and honey was added to it. Surprisingly, it is possible to make garlic into pills very easily and without any problems in a high yield with a smaller amount than usual as an excipient, and the gunpowder obtained is not particularly hard and has a soft and pleasant taste in the mouth. It was also discovered that the disintegration properties on the back were extremely good, and the present invention was completed based on this finding. That is, in the present invention, garlic corms are immersed in a slightly acidic aqueous solution of an inorganic acid, cut and dried, and then water is added and distilled to produce Aspergillus oryzae bal.
Garlic fire is characterized by adding pullulan and honey to dried powder of garlic culture obtained by inoculating and culturing and drying garlic cloves, thoroughly kneading the powder, granulating it into pill form, drying it and polishing it. This relates to a method for producing a drug.

The odorless garlic powder used in the present invention is typically disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 420510 (Japanese Patent Publication No. 38-14392).
Examples include those manufactured by the method described in No. More specifically, garlic corms are immersed in a slightly acidic aqueous solution of an inorganic acid, preferably at about 35-40°C for 10 hours or more, to decompose and remove the Aspergillus aspergillus growth-inhibiting substances in the garlic using enzymes in living garlic cells. Garlic powder or small pieces are then cut into appropriate sizes and dried to obtain garlic powder or small pieces, water is added to this, distilled, inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae bal-nii, and this culture is dried to produce a powder. (hereinafter referred to as odorless garlic powder).

This odorless garlic powder is not only odorless, but also contains living koji mold, and has extremely high nutritional value by adding live koji mold to the rich nutritional source of garlic.

Furthermore, the pullulan used as an excipient in the present invention is specially processed starch, and has never been used as an excipient for seed pills in the past. Also, as honey, commonly known honey can be used in a wide range of ways, and natural honey is usually used.

In the present invention, it is essential to use the above-mentioned three types of raw materials, and for example, if you try to produce gunpowder from odorless garlic and pullulan (without using honey),
Similar to conventional excipients such as Kanbai powder, it requires an extremely large amount, 3 to 4 times the weight of ordinary odorless garlic, and the garlic content is extremely small, so that it loses its characteristics as a garlic fire agent. In addition, during the manufacturing process, it changes quickly over time and is poorly organized, which poses a major problem in making it into a fireworks. However, if you use pullulan with a small amount of honey added, it becomes possible to make fire powder even if the amount of pullulan used is small, and there is no change over time during production, and the consistency is good, making it extremely easy to reduce the content of odorless garlic. This made it possible to produce high-quality gunpowder.

In carrying out the present invention, first, odorless garlic powder, pullulan and honey are uniformly kneaded.

In this case, the mixing ratio of the three ingredients is 3-100 parts by weight of pullulan, preferably 5-7 parts by weight, and 15-30 parts by weight of honey, preferably 20-25 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of garlic. It is preferable that the mixing is carried out sufficiently so that the three materials are uniformly mixed, and the uniformly mixed material thus obtained is then granulated. The particle size during granulation is appropriately selected so as to obtain a desired particle size, and is usually 3 mm or more, preferably about 5-6 mm. The granulation means may be any conventional means, and granulation using a Tohebo Kyuuki machine can be cited as a representative example.

The granulated particles are then dried. Drying at this time is usually at 60-80°C, preferably about 70-75°C, for 10 hours or more, preferably about 12-15 hours. After drying, polish. At this time, polishing is done by adding a small amount of water and moving it around.

In the present invention, various other third components may be added as long as they do not interfere with pill preparation. Preferred examples of the third component in this case include dried powders of ginseng, perilla, algae (kelp and wakame), and plums, as well as their extracts.

The garlic cloves obtained by the method of the present invention have the following characteristics.

(a) It is not in a rigid state like conventional garlic paste, but has considerable flexibility and elasticity, and has an extremely good texture.

(b) Very good disintegration in the mouth and on the back.

Kuha) The content of garlic is extremely high.

(d) Although it contains garlic as its main ingredient, it has no odor inherent to garlic, making it an extremely easy-to-eat solid food.

(e) Because it contains honey, it has a sweet taste, no pungent odor, and an extremely mellow flavor.

(f) In addition to the excellent nutritional components of garlic, it contains live koji mold, and the nutritional components of honey are added, making it an extremely rich and highly nutritious product that contains a variety of nutritional components. These include the fact that it is a healthy food.

Example 1゜100 parts by weight of odorless garlic, 30 ffiffi honey
1 part and 5 parts of pullulan (manufactured by Kyuide Sangyo Co., Ltd.) were thoroughly kneaded,
A camel-colored mixture was obtained. This was granulated using a round machine to obtain a pill-shaped solid with an average diameter of about 5.5+ nm. This was dried at 70-75°C for 12 hours to form a solid food with an average diameter of about 5 mm. A small amount of water was sprinkled on this while moving to polish it. 1q of garlic cloves were shiny and elastic.
