Problems solved by technology

Spirulina tablets with unqualified disintegration time will affect the body's absorption of nutrients and cause stomach discomfort for some users
The usual solution is to reduce the content of spirulina in the tablet, but this requires consumers to take more tablets, which is costly and inconvenient to use; or it is made into a chewable tablet, but the spirulina has a bad taste and will stick to the teeth for a long time , so both methods are less adaptable to consumers
[0004] Chinese patents with patent publication numbers CN201310661998.5 and CN201010541210.3 disclose spirulina tablets that meet the disintegration time limit. Both patents use ethanol granulation technology, although patent 201310661998.5 believes that the introduction of hydrophilic components is to promote tablet The key factor of disintegration, but the inventors of the present application found through controlled experiments that under non-ethanol granulation conditions, the disintegration time of the spirulina tablets prepared by using these two patents’ disclosed prescriptions were all greater than 1h
Ethanol is an organic solvent. Explosion-proof devices are required in industrial production. The cost is high and there are safety hazards. The ethanol granulation process is relatively complicated. In addition, ethanol can dissolve some nutrients in Spirulina, such as chlorophyll, and denature proteins. Therefore, Nutrients may be lost during preparation

Embodiment 1

[0065] Embodiment 1 Viscosity determination experiment

[0066] Prepare 1% vitamin C, 1% calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ), 1% citric acid, 1% tartaric acid, 1% malic acid and 1% fumaric acid aqueous solution as medium, take distilled water as contrast, take the spirulina powder of same weight, add in the above-mentioned solution, be mixed with spirulina concentration: 50mg / mL, mix well, take 8mL and use a rheometer to measure the viscosity of the suspension, and then take the supernatant to measure the viscosity after the spirulina is precipitated. The viscosity data is shown in the table below. The obtained spirulina solution viscosity change curve is shown in figure 1 .

[0067] Table 1 Viscosity of spirulina solution

[0068] Medium solution type

[0069] It can be seen from Table 1 that the viscosity of the medium solution formed after calcium chloride, vitamin C, and various organic acids are dissolved in water is between 2.22 and 2.31cP. After adding spirulina powd...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of health-care food, in particular to a spirulina composition and a preparation thereof. The spirulina composition comprises spirulina and a disintegration-promoting auxiliary material which is one or a mixture of two or more of organic acid, electrolyte and a liquid auxiliary material. According to the spirulina composition, the auxiliary material capable of reducing the viscosity of the composition is introduced, a small quantity of liquid auxiliary material is also introduced to promote disintegration, and a high-content spirulina tablet is prepared by directly mixing the auxiliary material, the liquid auxiliary material and spirulina powder. The disintegration time of the spirulina tablet is obviously shortened or even becomes 10 min. According to the method, the preparation can be obtained by directly pressing the powder, the drying process is not needed, and the process is simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of health food, in particular to a spirulina composition and its preparation. Background technique [0002] Spirulina (Spirulina) is a class of lower organisms, prokaryotes, filamentous bodies composed of unicellular or multicellular. Spirulina is rich in protein, mainly composed of isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan and so on. In addition, it also contains fat, carbohydrates, chlorophyll, carotenoids, phycocyanin, vitamin A, vitamin B 1 , Vitamin B 2 , Vitamin B 6 , Vitamin B 12 , vitamin E, niacin, creatine, γ-linolenic acid, calcium pantothenate, folic acid and calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, etc. As a health product, spirulina has been widely concerned and applied. It is reported that spirulina has the functions of lowering cholesterol, regulating blood sugar, enhancing the immune system, protecting the stomach, anti-tumor, preventing and suppressing cancer...
