Problems solved by technology

[0031] This method can selectively hydrolyze triglycerides containing a variety of fatty acids. The rate of hydrolysis of triglycerides containing EPA and DHA by lipase is slower than that of triglycerides without both, thus enriching more unsaturated fatty acid triglycerides, but cannot separate EPA and DHA
[0032] EPA and DHA cannot be effectively separated by a single method, and multiple methods need to be used in combination

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of analysis, in particular to a method for purifying EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) from fish oil. The method has high selectivity and separation efficiency, EPA, DHA and other impurities can be effectively separated, unsaturated fatty acid and impurities in the fish oil are selectively adsorbed, sample loads are high, a moving phase of an organic solvent or organicsolvent / water system is used, the solvent can be recycled, and industrialization cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of analysis, in particular to a method for purifying EPA from fish oil. Background technique [0002] Eicosapentaenoic acid is a very effective anti-vascular disease drug discovered in recent years, which mainly exists in marine organisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EicosaPentaenoic-acid), referred to as EPA, is an omega-3 polyene fatty acid, which can be converted into prostaglandin I: (PGI.) with anticoagulant function in humans and animals and can inhibit thrombus The generation of factor A: (TXA:) has the effect of anti-vascular disease, and its side effects are small, so it is a promising anti-vascular disease drug. EPA is called "vascular scavenger". It has the functions of improving blood circulation, softening blood vessels, regulating blood lipids, lowering blood pressure and blood sugar, and is suitable for middle-aged and elderly people. Clinical trials have affirmed the medicinal effect of EPA, and increasin...
