The invention relates to a method for extracting
elastin peptide from
jellyfish. The method comprises the following steps: S1, washing fresh
jellyfish with clear water to remove impurities or soaking and
salting the
jellyfish with cold water containing
citric acid /
acetic acid to desalt;
cutting into small blocks for later use; s2, mixing the jellyfish with a
sodium hydroxide solution with the pH value of more than or equal to 11.5, carrying out pressure maintaining and shearing treatment by using a high-pressure shearing
machine, centrifuging, and retaining precipitates; s3, mixing the precipitate with pure water, adjusting the pH value to be less than or equal to 1.5 by using
hydrochloric acid, reacting for 1-4 hours, and centrifuging to reserve the precipitate; s4, the precipitate is mixed with
sodium chloride saline water, the concentration of the
sodium chloride saline water is 0.8-1.5 M, a reaction is conducted for 1-4 h,
centrifugation is conducted, and the precipitate is reserved; s5, mixing the precipitate with pure water, adjusting the pH value to 6.8-7.4, adding elastinase for enzymolysis, performing high-speed
centrifugation, and retaining the precipitate; and S6, collecting the precipitate to obtain the jellyfish
elastin peptide. The jellyfish is used as a
raw material and has the advantages in the aspects of
raw material cost, availability, pretreatment and the like.
