Description

The invention relates to the confectionery industry, in particular to the composition of a chewing product containing biologically active substances, and a method for its preparation.

Solid oral compositions in the form of chewing gum are known [RF patent No. 2308938, publ. 10.27.2007] containing: a) polyphosphates; b) hydrated silicon dioxide; c) a source of fluoride ions; d) plant extracts or active ingredients; e) optionally antibacterial / disinfecting agents. The compositions of the invention are useful as adjuvants in dental hygiene, in particular for reducing calculus deposition.

However, as a disadvantage of the known composition, a multicomponent composition containing synthetic additives can be noted: 1) the chewing gum composition will require additional components, such as a rubber (resin) base, sweeteners, polyalcohols, flavors, dyes, softeners, plasticizers, stabilizers, thickeners; 2) the compositions of the invention may contain a disinfectant or antibacterial agent, such as triclosan, zinc salts or zinc oxide, separately or combined with one another.

Known chewing gum (RU 2391023, publ. 06/10/2010), which contains a chewing base - 40-60 wt.% And fillers - 40-60 wt.%. As a base, it contains synthetic and / or natural gum bases, and as fillers, resin of conifers, mainly resin of Siberian larch or Siberian cedar.

Known chewing composition and method for its production (RU 2366261, publ. 10.09.2009). The group of inventions provides the first object - a chewing composition containing propolis extract, wax and cedar resin. The components are taken in the following ratio, wt.%: Wax - 6 ÷ 8; propolis extract - 2 ÷ 5; cedar resin - the rest. The second object of the group of the invention is a method for producing a chewing composition, which provides that the cedar resin is filtered by placing it on a grid with two layers of gauze or calico and melting it in a water-steam bath under the influence of a temperature of 80-120 degrees. The filtered resin is heated to a temperature of 80 ÷ 95 degrees, add wax, mix, allow to cool to a temperature of 50 ÷ 60 degrees. Propolis extract is added and mixed, allowed to cool to a temperature of 30 ÷ 40 degrees. The resulting mass is formed in the form of a plate or bundle and divided into separate granules.

A disadvantage of the known method is that the resin is subjected to additional heat treatment, which has a negative effect on the biologically active substances contained in the resin.

The present invention is the creation of a chewing product from natural components, including biologically active substances, with bactericidal and wound healing effects, as well as improving its taste and release properties.

The problem is achieved in that the composition of the chewing product includes, as an elastic base, resin of coniferous trees, and as an additive containing biologically active substances, grain crops sprouted in an aqueous extract of raw materials of plant origin, which is selected from the group of plants, including heart-shaped linden (Tilia cordata), yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.), oregano (Origánum vulgáre), thyme (Thymus serpyllum L.), peppermint (Mentha piperita), lemon balm (Melissa sp.), Nettle (Urtica dica) varnish quicill (Glycyrrhiza glabra), chamomile (Matricaria discoidea).

The ratio of the components is the resin of coniferous trees and grain of crops grown in the aqueous extract of plant materials, is (1-2): 1, respectively. Cereals are selected from the group comprising wheat, rye, oats, barley, rice. Coniferous trees include Siberian cedar, pine, spruce, larch, fir. Grains of grain crops are poured for 1.5-2 hours with water at a temperature of 30-40 ° C, after which it is drained and poured for 3-4 hours with an aqueous extract of raw materials of plant origin with a ratio of water: raw materials of plant origin equal to (10-50): 1, respectively, by immersing grain crops in it halfway. Then the grains are covered with a damp cloth and in the course of 2-3 days the specified water extract is wetted with grains and tissue every 2-3 hours until sprouts of 3-4 mm appear.

The aqueous extract of raw materials of plant origin is an infusion or decoction of parts of these plants containing biologically active substances.

Resin of coniferous trees (gum), in particular larch, Siberian cedar, spruce, fir, pine, is obtained by processing natural substances from raw materials of plant origin in the form of hardened resin, collected upon reaching one-year exposure in natural conditions. Then the resin is washed and melted in a water bath, not bringing to a boil. Sprouted grains are poured with the obtained resin of liquid consistency in the ratio (1-2: 1), respectively (resinous base: sprouted grains), which are previously placed in molds, for example, 2 × 3 cm in size, and then subjected to sublimation at a temperature of minus 22-25 ° C and packaged in vacuum packaging. Use the finished product directly in dry form.

The resin composition includes: 40-65% of diterpenic or resin acids of the general formula C ₁₉ H ₂₉ COOH (levopimaric, pimaric, palusturic, abietic, dehydroabistinic, etc.), 20-35% of monoterpene hydrocarbons of the general formula C ₁₀ H ₁₆ (volatile part gum - a- and b-pinenes, karen, camphene, b-pellandren, limonene, etc.), 5-20% of sesqui and diterpenic hydrocarbons and their derivatives (the so-called neutral substances). The qualitative composition of resin acids and monoterpenes for the resin resin of coniferous trees growing in the USSR is basically the same (the resin resin of the cedar also contains lambertian acid), their quantitative composition is different and depends on the species and type of tree, its distribution area, etc. The resin of the fir contains, in addition, triterpene acids. Zhivitsa significantly differ from each other in the content and composition of neutral substances (in% by weight): in the resin of the pine ordinary (Pinus silvestris) - 3-4 (pimaradiene, pimarinol, abietinol, abietinal, methyl dehydroabietate, etc.), in the resin of Siberian cedar (Pinus sibirica) - 7-10 (cambrene, isocembrene, isocembrol, etc.), in the resin of the larch (Larix sibirica, Larix daurica) - 18-20 (larixol, laricacetate, epimanol, epitorulosol, aldehydes, etc.), in the resin spruce (Picea obovata et al.) - 10-12 (neoabienol, epimanoyl oxide, etc.), in the resin of fir (Abies sibirica) - 8-12 (manoyl oxide, abienol, neoabienol, etc.) (Chemice encyclopedia in Moscow: Soviet Encyclopedia, edited by I. L. Knunyants. 1988. dic.academic.ru). The resin resin of coniferous trees powerfully enhances and activates the processes of regeneration and self-healing in the human body at the cellular level, has a strong bactericidal and wound healing effect. Terpenes, biologically active substances, give healing properties to the resin. In addition, biologically active substances found in the aqueous extract of raw plant materials penetrate the grain, enhancing its biological activity.

Example 1

Wheat grains are washed in running water, spread on a sieve, shaken twice, placed in a container, filled with completely warm (30-40 ° C) water for 2 hours. Then the water is removed. A cotton cloth is laid at the bottom of the dishes and the grains are poured with warm (30-40 ° C) infusion of linden inflorescences with bracts so that the grains are half immersed in the infusion. To obtain the infusion, take 40 g of linden inflorescences with bracts per 1 liter of hot water (90 ° C) and insist for 10 hours at room temperature. After 4 hours, cotton cloth moistened with the specified infusion is placed on top of the grains. Further wetting of the grains and tissue with the same infusion by spraying is carried out every 2-3 hours until sprouts 3-4 mm in size appear.

Then the larch resin is washed and melted in a water bath, without boiling. The sprouted wheat larch resin is poured with sprouted wheat grains, the ratio of elastic base: sprouted wheat grain is 2: 1, respectively, the sprouted grain coated with resin is preliminarily placed in molds 2 × 3 cm in size, then sublimated at a temperature of minus 25 ° С and Packed in vacuum packaging. The resulting chewing product has a pleasant aftertaste of natural resin and bread and does not stick to the surface of the teeth.
