Abstract

The invention provides a method for extracting fucoxanthin from brown seaweeds, and relates to the technical field of biology. The method for extracting the fucoxanthin from the brown seaweeds comprises the following steps: after freeze-drying the brown seaweeds, crushing to obtain brown seaweed powder; after mixing the brown seaweed powder and a complex enzyme, adding ethanol to obtain a raw material solution; carrying out microwave extraction on the raw material solution for 3min to 8min to obtain an extracting solution, wherein the complex enzyme is prepared from pectinase and cellulase at the mass ratio of 1 : (0.5 to 4); carrying out solid-liquid separation on the extracting solution. The microwave extraction is cooperated with enzymolysis, and cell walls of the brown seaweeds can be rapidly broken, so that effective components in cells are dissolved out; the method has moderate reaction conditions, is simple to operate and is safe and environmentally friendly. Two extracting methods are combined, and the extracting quality is high; the fucoxanthin in the brown seaweeds can be effectively protected and is not damaged. The yield of an obtained extract is great, and the method has the advantages of time saving, reduction of the usage amount of a solvent, low energy consumption and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a method for extracting fucoxanthin from brown algae. Background technique [0002] Fucoxanthin, also known as fucoxanthin and fucoxanthin, is an important fat-soluble carotenoid widely distributed in seaweed, marine phytoplankton, aquatic shells and other marine animals and plants. Among them, brown algae has the highest content, which is an important functional active substance in edible brown algae such as kelp, wakame, and hijiki, and is also a substance that makes brown algae appear brown. Its structure contains multiple conjugated double bonds, can be dissolved in organic solvents such as ethanol, acetone, methanol, etc., and has special structures such as propadiene and alkylene oxide, and has poor stability and is easy to oxidize. Fucoxanthin has extremely high medicinal value and has a special effect on anti-tumor, which can block tumor cell mitosis and induce cell apop...
