- a carbohydrate having the structure of D-darcoviranosyl (1 ⁇ ) (the carbohydrate is hereinafter referred to as “cyclic tetrasaccharide” in the present specification because of its structure) as an active ingredient.
- the present invention relates to a dehydrating agent, a method for dehydrating a hydrate using the same, and a dehydrated article obtained by the method.
- the dehydration method using a saccharide has been disclosed by the present inventors in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. Sho 62-136240, 62-152525, and As disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 6 2—1 5 2 5 3 7 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-170021, the anhydrous saccharide is dehydrated while being trapped by water and converted to hydrous crystals. It is a way to exert your power. Since this method does not require severe conditions, unlike heating and drying, it has the feature of converting hydrated products into dehydrated articles without altering or deteriorating hydrated products.
- anhydrous aldose hexoses such as anhydrous glucose and anhydrous galactose, which are disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Sho. Although it is a reducing sugar, it is highly reactive, and easily browns with amino acids, peptides, etc., indicating that there is concern about the storage stability of dehydrated articles. In addition, it was found that anhydrous aldohexose did not convert to hydrous crystals even at relatively high humidity, indicating poor dehydration power.

However, since it has a fructoside bond with low acid resistance in the molecule, it is assumed that it is not necessarily suitable as a dehydrating agent for acidic hydrates, and the stability of the obtained dehydrated article is also considered. Anxiety remains.

Since it is relatively high at about 10 w / w%, it can be said that it is more suitable as a dehydrating agent than the above saccharides. However, since a large amount of anhydrous ⁇ , ⁇ -trehalose is still required, a dehydrating agent having higher dehydration and / or higher drying efficiency is required. Disclosure of the invention
