The chlorophyll-containing solution obtained by extracting photosynthetic substances with an organic solvent contains large amounts of carotenoids, xanthophylls, lipids, etc. in addition to chlorophyll, so in order to separate and purify chlorophyll, these chlorophylls can be extracted without deteriorating the chlorophyll. It is necessary to remove other substances.

Conventional methods for separating and purifying chlorophyll include dioxane treatment, silica gel column chromatography, sucrose column chromatography, and purification methods using various organic solvents, but all of them are carried out on a laboratory scale. However, it is difficult to implement it on an industrial scale due to the solvent used, filtration, large-scale processing, etc. Additionally, activated carbon chromatography, the only method that has been used industrially, requires very large scale equipment and uses a large amount of solvent, making it inefficient and complicated to operate.Furthermore, since it uses activated carbon, it has to be used repeatedly. However, it is not always a satisfactory method as it has drawbacks such as difficulty.

Therefore, the present invention has been made with the object of separating and purifying a large amount of highly pure chlorophyll with simple operations and efficiently.

That is, the method for separating and purifying chlorophyll according to the present invention involves treating a chlorophyll-containing solution with a highly polar porous polymeric resin, thereby adsorbing a substance that is more polar than chlorophyll onto the highly polar porous polymeric resin, thereby removing chlorophyll. The method is characterized in that chlorophyll is left in the solution and then treated with a medium polar porous polymer resin to adsorb chlorophyll onto the medium polar porous polymer resin.

In carrying out the present invention, first, a photosynthetic object is
A chlorophyll-containing solution is prepared by extracting with % aqueous acetone or the like and then dissolving in n-hexane, or by dissolving a paste obtained by extraction and concentration in n-hexane.
This chlorophyll-containing solution is first treated with a porous polymeric resin of high polarity and then with a porous polymeric resin of medium polarity. As a treatment method, a method of filling a column with resin and passing a chlorophyll-containing solution through the column can be preferably used.

That is, a chlorophyll-containing n-hexane solution is passed through a column packed with a highly polar porous polymeric resin, and a substance more polar than chlorophyll is adsorbed onto the resin, leaving the chlorophyll in the liquid passing through the column. After the resin has passed through, the resin is washed with an appropriate amount of n-hexane as needed to wash away some chlorophyll retained in the column. The column-passing liquid and washing liquid obtained in this manner are combined and directly passed through a column filled with a medium-polar porous polymer resin. As a result, chlorophyll is adsorbed to this medium polar resin, but low polar substances such as β-carotene flow out as non-adsorbed substances. Finally, by eluting the chlorophyll adsorbed on the resin with acetone and concentrating the eluate under reduced pressure at a low temperature, high purity chlorophyll in the form of a metallic blue-purple shiny crystalline powder can be obtained.

Another advantage of the present invention is that pheophytin can be easily removed by washing the chlorophyll-adsorbing resin with an appropriate amount of toluene or the like before eluting the chlorophyll adsorbed on the resin with acetone. This pheophytin is produced by changing a considerable amount of chlorophyll in the raw material when using normal raw material drying processing methods, and once it is mixed into chlorophyll, it is extremely difficult to remove using conventional refining methods. It was hot, but
According to the present invention, it can be easily and effectively removed. As the solvent used for the purpose of washing and removing the pheophytin, an appropriate organic solvent is selected depending on the type of resin used, especially its polarity.
