Preparation method and applications of aspartic acid Maillard reactant

Abstract

The invention aims at providing a preparation method of aspartic acid Maillard reactant and applications of the aspartic acid Maillard reactant in reconstituted tobacco and cigar wrappers. By adding a certain percentage of amino acid (aspartic acid or / and asparagine), reducing sugar and catalyst into a Maillard reaction tank and performing Maillard reaction under certain technological conditions to industrially produce aspartic acid hyperchromic and fragrance-strengthening Maillard reactant, impurities of polysaccharide and the like can be reduced, the defects of moisture absorption, irritating and the like can be reduced; after being applied to the reconstituted tobacco and cigar wrappers, the appearance and feeling quality of the reconstituted tobacco and cigar wrappers can be improved, smoke can be coordinated, and baking and scorched sweet fragrance can be increased, so that smoke is soft and fine, the irritating property of smoke can be reduced, the sensory quality can be improved, the appearance is close to the appearance color of cigars and is natural and uniform, and the technological conditions are mild and easy to operate, and the cost is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tobacco additives, in particular to a preparation method of aspartic acid Maillard reactant and its application in reconstituted tobacco leaves and wrappers. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of people's health awareness, the difficulties faced by cigarette factories in solving the problem of reducing the amount of cigarette tar while maintaining or satisfying the availability of cigarette smoking have become increasingly prominent. As one of the important ways to form the characteristic aroma of tobacco, the Maillard reaction has been favored for its application in tobacco flavoring. The aroma produced by the reaction is also different according to the sugar source and nitrogen source, and a large amount of heterocyclic aroma compounds are produced by the reaction, which can improve the smoke of cigarettes. [0003] Reconstituted tobacco can be used as a raw material for tobacco product...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The source of raw materials of this method is complicated, the cost is high, and the flavor type of the prepared spice is relatively single, so it is difficult to be widely used in cigarettes.

Other maillard reaction spices with complex sugar sources and nitrogen sources have complex sources of raw materials and high costs. The prepared Maillard reaction products are complex and difficult to purify, causing greater irritation to smoke

Authorized invention patent ZL201310268308.X "A method for preparing tobacco flavor by regulating the Maillard reaction", the amino acid and glucose are mixed and dissolved in water according to the mass ratio of 1:2 to 1:6 to obtain the initial mixed liquid, and the initial mixed The mass concentration of glucose in the solution is 10% to 20%, the pH is 8 to 12, and the temperature is controlled at 105°C to 120°C for 0.5 to 1 hour; add L-ascorbic acid and continue to react at 105°C to 120°C for 0.5 to 1 hour to prepare Demaillard reaction type tobacco flavor, the Maillard reaction flavor has the defects of high polysaccharide content, complex components, high viscosity, strong moisture absorption, and almost no coloring ability

The existing reports of the Maillard reaction product of aspartic acid are propylene glycol / water system, the ratio of aspartic acid and reducing sugar is usually 1:2~1:1.2, the sugar is excessive, and the catalyst is ammonia water and hydroxybutyl anise Ether or tert-butyl hydroquinone, etc., the reactants have the defects of many impurities, high polysaccharide content, and high moisture absorption. There is no aspartic acid Maillard reactant to improve the appearance and appearance of reconstituted tobacco leaves and their wrappers. sensory quality reports
