Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, the methods for modifying solubilized yeast β-D-glucan mainly include sulfation, carboxymethylation, and β-glucanase. D-glucan needs to use chemical reagents such as concentrated sulfuric acid, dimethyl sulfoxide, and chloroacetic acid, which not only cause pollution and damage to the environment, but also cannot achieve industrial scale production; use enzymatic modification to solubilize yeast β-D- Dextran, soluble dextran has a low yield and high production cost, and is not suitable for industrial production

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving yeast beta-D-glucan water-solubility. The method comprises the steps that: (1) yeast beta-glucan is dissolved by using an ionic liquid, such that a glucan-ionic liquid mixed solution is obtained; (2) the glucan-ionic liquid mixed solution is subjected to a micro-jet homogenization process; (3) an organic solvent is added into the homogenized glucan-ionic liquid mixed solution, such that precipitation is carried out; (4) the precipitate is dissolved by using water, and centrifugation is carried out, such that a supernatant is obtained, and the improvement upon the yeast beta-glucan water-solubility is realized. With the method provided by the invention, modified and solubilized yeast beta-D-glucan is white fluffy cottony solid. With the method provided by the invention, yeast beta-glucan application range can be widened.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for modifying and solubilizing yeast β-D-glucan, in particular to a method for improving the water solubility of yeast β-glucan by using ionic liquid. Background technique [0002] Yeast β-D-glucan accounts for 30-60% of the dry weight of yeast cell walls, and the diameter is generally 20-80μm. The main chain is connected by β-1,3 glycosidic bonds, and β-1,6 glycosidic bonds are interspersed between the chains. , Is a linear molecule polymerized by 1500 glucose residues. Its molecular weight is about 240KDa. It can enhance immunity, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-infection, anti-virus, anti-cancer, lowering cholesterol, anti-radiation, healing wounds, etc. Many physiological functions. Due to the interaction of the polyhydroxyl groups in the yeast β-D-glucan molecule to form a dense triple helix structure, it is insoluble in water. Water insolubility not only restricts its application in food, medicine, cosmetics a...
