Antecedentes de la invención Background of the invention
Los hábitos alimentarios en la cuenca mediterránea abundantes en frutas, verduras y aceite de oliva virgen extra, son ricos en polifenoles. Esta es la principal razón de la baja incidencia de varias patologías degenerativas; por ejemplo, la reducción del riesgo cardiovascular y el descenso del riesgo de desarrollar tumores. Documentos de patente como la WO 2000038541 A1 describen una dieta saludable en la que los alimentos han sido enriquecidos con antioxidantes, principalmente compuestos fenólicos del olivo.The eating habits in the Mediterranean basin abundant in fruits, vegetables and extra virgin olive oil, are rich in polyphenols. This is the main reason for the low incidence of various degenerative pathologies; for example, the reduction of cardiovascular risk and the decrease of the risk of developing tumors. Patent documents such as WO 2000038541 A1 describe a healthy diet in which food has been enriched with antioxidants, mainly phenolic compounds from the olive tree.
El compuesto fenólico mayoritario en el fruto del olivo y la hoja es la oleuropeína, con concentraciones de 2 a 134 mg g_1 de materia seca. Numerosos estudios demuestran la importante actividad biológica de la oleuropeína. Es un importante antioxidante y antibacteriano, el principal responsable del efecto antinflamatorio de los extractos de hoja de olivo, muestra actividad antiproliferativa sobre líneas celulares de mama y de hígado, actúa contra la diabetes, previene la obesidad ya que ha demostrado efectos hipocolesterolémicos en ratas, y protege contra la osteoporosis y la osteoartritis. Además, ayuda a prevenir enfermedades neurodegenerativas como el Parkinson y Alzhéimer por sus propiedades neuroprotectoras y a minimizar el avance de la fibrosis pulmonar. The main phenolic compound in the fruit of the olive tree and the leaf is oleuropein, with concentrations of 2 to 134 mg g _1 of dry matter. Numerous studies demonstrate the significant biological activity of oleuropein. It is an important antioxidant and antibacterial, the main responsible for the anti-inflammatory effect of olive leaf extracts, shows antiproliferative activity on breast and liver cell lines, acts against diabetes, prevents obesity since it has shown hypocholesterolemic effects in rats, and protects against osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. In addition, it helps prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's due to its neuroprotective properties and to minimize the progression of pulmonary fibrosis.
En los últimos años se han aplicado tecnologías de alta presión, fluido supercrítico o destilación molecular para extraer estos componentes e incluirlos en matrices alimentarias. El interés en los alimentos funcionales, alimentos enriquecidos y suplementos alimenticios actuales es ofrecer efectos protectores frente a enfermedades de elevada incidencia, como obesidad, trastornos cardiovasculares y cáncer, entre otras. In recent years, high pressure, supercritical fluid or molecular distillation technologies have been applied to extract these components and include them in food matrices. Interest in functional foods, fortified foods, and Current nutritional supplements is to offer protective effects against diseases of high incidence, such as obesity, cardiovascular disorders and cancer, among others.
Así, la solicitud WO 2017032722 A1 describe una bebida de un extracto de hojas de olivo con derivados secoiridoides obtenido por calentamiento en agua y aditivos enzimáticos; y la JP 2016079127 A, describe un antioxidante compuesto de dihidroquercetina y extracto de hoja de olivo que contiene oleuropeína e hidroxitirosol, con aplicación como aditivo alimentario. Thus, the application WO 2017032722 A1 describes a drink made from an extract of olive leaves with secoiridoid derivatives obtained by heating in water and enzymatic additives; and JP 2016079127 A, describes an antioxidant composed of dihydroquercetin and olive leaf extract containing oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, with application as a food additive.
En la WO 2008108817 A1 se describe un suplemento nutricional saludable donde el sabor amargo de la oleuropeína se enmascara al formar complejo con ci el od extrinas ayudado con monoésteres de glicerina. De acuerdo con US 20090061031 A1 , la oleuropeína y sus principales metabolitos, incluyendo el aglicón de la oleuropeína, el hidroxitirosol y el ácido elenólico son útiles para tratar la obesidad, así como para inhibir la infectividad del VIH. In WO 2008108817 A1 a healthy nutritional supplement is described where the bitter taste of oleuropein is masked by complexing with ci the extrins aided by glycerin monoesters. According to US 20090061031 A1, oleuropein and its main metabolites, including oleuropein aglycone, hydroxytyrosol and elenolic acid are useful for treating obesity, as well as for inhibiting HIV infectivity.
La patente ES 2288123 B1 protege una composición alimentaria funcional a base de extractos de olivo y cítricos para la prevención o tratamiento de problemas relacionados con el exceso de colesterol y triglicéridos en sangre. Las extracciones se llevan a cabo por mezclas hidroalcohólicas. Patent ES 2288123 B1 protects a functional food composition based on olive and citrus extracts for the prevention or treatment of problems related to excess cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. The extractions are carried out by hydroalcoholic mixtures.
Todos estos métodos de extracción de la oleuropeína requieren de disolventes orgánicos (MeOH/H20, EtOH/H20 o MeCN/H20) que son tóxicos y hay que eliminar en la elaboración de un producto alimenticio. All these oleuropein extraction methods require organic solvents (MeOH / H 2 0, EtOH / H 2 0 or MeCN / H 2 0) which are toxic and must be eliminated in the preparation of a food product.
Frente a este inconveniente, los disolventes eutécticos profundos naturales (NADES) evitan la necesidad de reducir o eliminar el extractante. Los NADES son de gran interés, ya que son una alternativa verde frente a los disolventes convencionales tóxicos. Faced with this drawback, natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) avoid the need to reduce or eliminate the extractant. NADES are of great interest, as they are a green alternative to toxic conventional solvents.
NADES basados en glicerol y glicina, es decir en compuestos no azúcares, han sido usados para extraer polifenoles de las hojas de olivo (Athanasiadis, V. et al. Waste Biomass Valor., 2018, 9, 1985-1992); en el documento no se sugiere el uso de azúcares como extractante. También se ha descrito el papel de la metil b-ciclodextrina como coadyuvante en la extracción de polifenoles de la hoja del olivo con disolventes eutécticos profundos (Athanasiadis, V. Biomass Convers. Biorefin., 2018, 8, 345-355), y el uso de disolventes eutécticos profundos basados en colina en la extracción asistida por microondas de compuestos fenólicos de la hoja de olivo (Alañón, M.E. et al. Arab. J. Chem., 2018, en prensa, https://doj.Org/10.1016/j.arabjc.2Q18.Q1.Q03); donde junto con colina como aceptor de enlace de hidrógeno, se utiliza ácido acético, ácido oxálico, ácido tartárico, butano-1,4-diol, etilenglicol, xilitol, propano-1,2-diol, maltosa o urea como donador de enlace de hidrógeno. NADES based on glycerol and glycine, that is, on non-sugar compounds, have been used to extract polyphenols from olive leaves (Athanasiadis, V. et al. Waste Biomass Valor., 2018, 9, 1985-1992); the use of sugars as an extractant is not suggested in the document. The role of methyl b-cyclodextrin as an adjuvant in the extraction of polyphenols from the olive leaf with deep eutectic solvents has also been described (Athanasiadis, V. Biomass Convers. Biorefin., 2018, 8, 345-355), and the use of choline-based deep eutectic solvents in microwave-assisted extraction of phenolic compounds from olive leaf (Alañón, ME et al. Arab. J. Chem., 2018, in press, https://doj.Org/10.1016 /j.arabjc.2Q18.Q1.Q03); where together with choline as a hydrogen bond acceptor, acetic acid, oxalic acid, acid tartaric, butane-1,4-diol, ethylene glycol, xylitol, propane-1,2-diol, maltose or urea as a hydrogen bond donor.
En resumen, no hay antecedentes en la técnica del uso de azúcares como únicos componentes de un NADES para extraer polifenoles de la hoja de olivo. In summary, there is no prior art to the use of sugars as the sole components of a NADES to extract polyphenols from olive leaf.
El problema de la técnica es conseguir un procedimiento de extracción de oleuropeína de la hoja del olivo más sencillo y evitando disolventes tóxicos. La solución que propone la presente invención es un procedimiento que sustituye los disolventes orgánicos típicos por azúcares o miel actuando como NADES. The problem of the technique is to achieve a simpler extraction procedure for oleuropein from the olive leaf and avoiding toxic solvents. The solution proposed by the present invention is a process that replaces typical organic solvents with sugars or honey, acting as NADES.
