Extraction process that can increase the yield of active ingredients in ants

Abstract

The invention discloses an extraction process capable of increasing the yield of active ingredients in ants, comprising: step 1) selecting ant worm bodies; step 2) placing ant worm bodies in drying equipment, and adjusting the drying equipment so that the drying The drying equipment alternately supplies hot air and cold air to its interior. After the drying process is over, the cold air is finally sent in until the ant worm body drops to room temperature; step 3) put the ant worm body into the carbon dioxide extractor, and perform cell wall destruction twice successively. Wall treatment; step 4) the whole extraction process is divided into 4 stages, from the first stage to the last stage, the flow of carbon dioxide increases successively; there is a first transition section between the first stage and the second stage, The flow of carbon dioxide in the first transition section, the second transition section and the third transition section has a linear increase trend; step 5) after the extraction is completed, the extraction fluid is sent into the separator for separation. The invention improves the yield of active ingredients.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of agriculture, in particular to an extraction process capable of increasing the yield of active ingredients in ants. Background technique [0002] Ants are rich in organic substances and have good medicinal value. Studies have shown that ant powder has pharmacological effects on anti-inflammatory, analgesic, bactericidal, anti-cancer and anti-cancer, and improving immunity. However, the traditional ant processing methods are mainly crushing, grinding and organic solvent extraction. Crushing and grinding methods cannot effectively remove impurities such as silt, leaves or grass clippings on ants, and there are problems such as excessive heavy metals, and some biologically active substances are also easily lost during processing. Although the organic solvent extraction method can extract the active ingredients in the ants, there is a problem of solvent residue, which affects product quality, pollutes the environment,...

Problems solved by technology

Crushing and grinding methods cannot effectively remove impurities such as sediment, leaves or grass clippings on ants, and there are problems such as excessive heavy metals, and some biologically active substances are also easily lost during processing

Although the organic solvent extraction method can extract the active ingredients in ants, there is a problem of solvent residue, which affects product quality, pollutes the environment, and has a long production cycle and high energy consumption.
