A kind of sterilization method of ginseng extract

Abstract

The invention provides a method for sterilizing the extract of ginseng. The pH value of the extract of ginseng is adjusted to be neutral, and then the inert gas is introduced into the sterilization tank to pressurize to 0.26MPa by vacuumizing first, and the sterilized Heating the ginseng extract in the tank to 112-115°C and keeping it for 30 minutes can kill the aerobic bacteria in the ginseng extract; by rapidly cooling the ginseng extract to 4-5°C and keeping it for 15 minutes, it can Kill the thermophilic bacteria in the ginseng extract; vacuumize again and feed oxygen into the sterilization tank to pressurize to 0.26MPa, and heat the ginseng extract in the sterilizer to within the range of 112-115°C And keep it for 30 minutes, it can kill the anaerobic bacteria in the ginseng extract, and achieve the technical effect of removing the bacteria in the ginseng extract. By heating the ginseng extract under the pressure condition of 0.26‑0.28MPa, the ginseng extract The boiling point of the extract increases, and when heated to 112-115°C, the traditional Chinese medicine will not be wasted due to boiling and evaporation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine production, in particular to a method for sterilizing an extract of Radix Ginseng. Background technique [0002] In the production process of the ginseng extract, in order to remove the bacteria in the ginseng extract, it will be sterilized, usually by heating for sterilization, and this method cannot completely remove a small amount of the ginseng extract. In the process of transportation and storage, the residual bacteria will cause the loss of medicinal properties of the ginseng extract, and even produce toxic components in severe cases, and when heated to a certain temperature, it will cause the ginseng extract to boil. Evaporation causes waste of traditional Chinese medicine liquid, and a sterilization method that can completely remove bacteria and reduce the waste of traditional Chinese medicine liquid is urgently needed. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the pr...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the production process of the ginseng extract, in order to remove the bacteria in the ginseng extract, it will be sterilized, usually by heating. Using this method, it cannot completely remove a small amount of bacteria in the ginseng extract. The thermophilic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria, during the transportation and storage process, the residual bacteria will lead to the loss of medicinal properties of the ginseng extract, and in severe cases, toxic components will be produced, and when heated to a certain temperature, the ginseng extract will boil Evaporate, resulting in the waste of traditional Chinese medicine, there is an urgent need for a sterilization method that can completely remove bacteria and reduce the waste of traditional Chinese medicine
