Modern pharmacological research shows that Knotweed has multiple pharmacological activities such as anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory and analgesic, antioxidant, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular protection, and liver protection.
[0003] Processing refers to the process of making unprocessed Chinese medicinal materials of Kouziqi into medicinal slices for clinical use through cleaning, cutting, frying, calcining, roasting, roasting, soaking, soaking, steaming and boiling under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory. After processing, the material basis of Kouziqi changes, which can significantly increase the saponin content, but the saponin components in Kouziqi are easily oxidized and degraded, and have poor stability. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The invention provides a steaming and processing process for Kouziqi, which solves the problem that the saponin components of Kouziqi are easily oxidized and degraded and have poor stability during the steaming and processing process of Kouziqi.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention:
[0006] A steaming and preparing process of Button Seven comprises the following steps:
[0007] S1. After removing impurities and cleaning the buttons, the buttons are puffed and dried to obtain puffed buttons.
[0008] S2. The puffed buttons seven herbs, composite microcapsules and water were mixed and stirred evenly. After 1-4h of incubation at 30-40 ℃, the mixture was steamed and dried to obtain steamed buttons seven herbs.
[0009] The composite microcapsule is made of a composite material as a core material and β-cyclodextrin and citric acid as capsule materials;
[0010] The composite material is obtained by mixing salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus root extract, kudzu root extract and tea polyphenols.
[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the impurity removal and cleaning are specifically as follows: the button seven medicinal materials are subjected to impurity removal, and non-medicinal residual stems, fibrous roots, dead leaves, stones, and metal chips are removed, and then the surface mud and sand are removed by washing with water.
[0012] Furthermore, in step S1, the puffing treatment adopts a twin-screw extruder, the barrel temperature is 60-80°C, the screw speed is 200-220r / min, the feed rate is 10-12kg / h, and the amount of deionized water added is 45-55% of the weight of the cleaned button seven medicinal material.
[0013] Furthermore, in step S2, the mass ratio of the expanded Kouziqi medicinal material, composite microcapsules and water is (80-100):(10-15):(20-30).
[0014] Furthermore, in step S2, the steaming temperature is 115-130°C, and the steaming time is 1-4 hours; the drying temperature is 60-90°C, and the drying time is 5-10 minutes.
[0015] Furthermore, in step S2, the composite microcapsules are prepared by the following steps:
[0016] A1. Salvia miltiorrhiza extract, Astragalus extract, and Pueraria root extract were added to ethanol and stirred at 700-800 r / min for 20-30 min. Tea polyphenols were added and stirred for 20-30 min. The mixture was stirred at 40-50 ° C until the solvent evaporated and dried to obtain a composite material.
[0017] A2. β-cyclodextrin was added to deionized water and stirred at 35-45°C for 30-40 minutes to obtain a β-cyclodextrin solution. The composite material and citric acid were added to deionized water and stirred at 35-45°C for 30-40 minutes to obtain a composite solution. The composite solution and the β-cyclodextrin solution were mixed and ultrasonically treated. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the solid was filtered, washed, and freeze-dried to obtain composite microcapsules.
[0018] Furthermore, during the above-mentioned A1 reaction process, salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract, kudzu root extract and tea polyphenols are mixed. The phenolic hydroxyl groups contained in the tea polyphenols can be combined with the active groups in the salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract and kudzu root extract through hydrogen bonds, so that the salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract and kudzu root extract are cross-linked to form a stable system, which is conducive to the encapsulation of β-cyclodextrin. In addition, tea polyphenols have an antioxidant effect and can significantly scavenge DPPH free radicals, prevent the thermal decomposition of saponins, and have a synergistic effect with the kudzu root extract in inhibiting the oxidative degradation of saponin components.
[0019] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned A2 reaction process, the composite material is used as the core material, and β-cyclodextrin and citric acid are used as capsule materials to form microcapsules. The tea polyphenols in the composite material can be embedded in the hydrophobic cavity of β-CD, and the fat-soluble components in the Salvia miltiorrhiza extract can also interact with β-cyclodextrin, so that β-cyclodextrin encapsulates the composite material. In addition, citric acid, as a cross-linking agent, can combine with tea polyphenols and β-cyclodextrin through chemical bonds, thereby increasing the cross-linking density of the microcapsules, thereby increasing the encapsulation rate, and forming composite microcapsules.
[0020] Furthermore, in step A1, the mass ratio of the salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus root extract, kudzu root extract, ethanol, and tea polyphenols is (2.2-2.4):(2.1-2.3):(1.4-1.6):(30-40):(3.5-3.9).
[0021] Furthermore, in step A2, the mass ratio of β-cyclodextrin to deionized water is (8-12):(45-55).
[0022] Furthermore, in step A2, the mass ratio of the composite material, citric acid and deionized water is (3.2-3.4):(1-1.2):(25-35).
[0023] Furthermore, in step A2, the ultrasonic treatment temperature is 40-60° C., the ultrasonic treatment frequency is 40-50 KHz, and the ultrasonic treatment time is 30-40 min.
[0024] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] (1) In the technical solution of the present invention, the button seven medicinal material is puffed. Due to the action of high temperature, high pressure and high shear force, especially when the pressure is released, the air in the button seven medicinal material is discharged, which destroys the cell wall and cell membrane structure of the button seven medicinal material, making the button seven medicinal material surface have a porous structure, which is conducive to the release of saponin components in the button seven medicinal material. Its porous structure increases the contact area with the composite microcapsule, making it easier for the composite microcapsule to enter the interior of the button seven medicinal material, thereby improving the processing efficiency, increasing the content of rare saponins, reducing the gelatinization of starch and improving the stability of the steamed button seven medicinal material.
[0026] (2) In the technical solution of the present invention, the fat-soluble components in the Salvia miltiorrhiza extract can promote the dissolution and retention of saponin components in the Herba Lycopodii, reduce the loss of components during the processing process, and increase the content of rare saponins; the surface activity of the Astragalus extract can optimize the infiltration effect during the processing of the Herba Lycopodii, increase the moisturizing effect of the Herba Lycopodii, and help to increase the content of rare saponins in the Herba Lycopodii steamed products; the Pueraria root extract can inhibit the oxidative degradation of saponin components, improve the stability of the Herba Lycopodii steamed products, and avoid the loss of components during the processing process.
[0027] (3) In the technical solution of the present invention, salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract, kudzu root extract and tea polyphenols are mixed. The phenolic hydroxyl groups contained in the tea polyphenols can be combined with the active groups in the salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract and kudzu root extract through hydrogen bonds, so that the salvia miltiorrhiza extract, astragalus extract and kudzu root extract are cross-linked to form a stable system, which is conducive to the encapsulation of β-cyclodextrin. In addition, tea polyphenols have an antioxidant effect and can significantly scavenge DPPH free radicals, prevent the thermal decomposition of saponins, and have a synergistic effect with the kudzu root extract in inhibiting the oxidative degradation of saponin components.
[0028] (4) In the technical solution of the present invention, a composite material is used as a core material, and β-cyclodextrin and citric acid are used as capsule materials to form microcapsules. On the one hand, the stability of the composite material is improved to prevent the composite material from being decomposed by heat during the processing of the button seven medicinal material, thereby affecting the saponin content and effective ingredients of the button seven medicinal material steamed product. On the other hand, the formed microcapsules have a small size effect. The surface of the puffed button seven medicinal material contains a large number of pore structures, which enables the microcapsules to enter the puffed button seven medicinal material, thereby improving the processing efficiency and increasing the rare saponin content. In addition, during the processing of the puffed button seven medicinal material, the internal moisture evaporates rapidly, the outer layer dries and shrinks, and stress is generated, which causes the composite microcapsules entering the puffed button seven medicinal material to rupture, releasing the composite material, which plays a role inside the button seven medicinal material, thereby improving the processing efficiency.
[0029] (5) In the technical solution of the present invention, the β-cyclodextrin produced by the rupture of the composite microcapsules can encapsulate the saponin components, thereby improving the stability of the steamed products of the button seven medicinal material, and citric acid can inhibit the gelatinization of starch, thereby preventing the starch from gelatinizing easily, encapsulating the saponin components in the button seven medicinal material, forming a physical barrier, and reducing the dissolution rate of the saponins. The present invention mainly adopts the methods of moistening, steaming, and drying to prepare the button seven medicinal material. The preparation process is simple and the effect is excellent. Moreover, by steaming the compound microcapsules, the content of rare saponins in the steamed button seven medicinal material is increased, thereby expanding the application range of the button seven medicinal material.

[0142] Table 1 Performance test of steamed products of Kouziqi medicinal materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7
[0143]
[0144]
[0145] It can be seen from the data in Table 1 that the steamed products of Kouziqi medicinal materials prepared in Examples 1-3 have high saponin content and good stability.
[0146] In comparative example 1, the steamed product of the button seven medicinal material prepared without puffing the button seven medicinal material in step S1 has a decreased saponin content and poor stability, which proves that the button seven medicinal material is puffed to make the surface of the button seven medicinal material have a porous structure, which is conducive to the release of saponin components in the button seven medicinal material. Its porous structure increases the contact area with the composite microcapsule, making it easier for the composite microcapsule to enter the interior of the button seven medicinal material, thereby improving the processing efficiency, increasing the rare saponin content, reducing starch gelatinization and improving the stability of the steamed product of the button seven medicinal material.
[0147] In comparative example 2, the composite microcapsules prepared without adding Salvia miltiorrhiza extract were mixed with the medicinal materials of Kouziqi and processed. The saponin content of the prepared steamed product of Kouziqi medicinal materials decreased, proving that the fat-soluble components in Salvia miltiorrhiza extract can promote the dissolution and retention of saponin components of Kouziqi, reduce the loss of components during the processing process, and increase the content of rare saponins.
[0148] In comparative example 3, the composite microcapsules prepared without adding astragalus extract were mixed with the medicinal materials of button seven for processing. The saponin content of the prepared steamed product of button seven medicinal materials decreased, which proved the surface activity of astragalus extract, which can optimize the wetting effect during the processing of button seven medicinal materials, increase the moisturizing effect of button seven medicinal materials, and is beneficial to increase the content of rare saponins in the steamed product of button seven medicinal materials.
[0149] In comparative example 4, the composite microcapsules prepared without adding Pueraria lobata extract were mixed with the medicinal materials of Kouziqi for preparation. The prepared steamed product of Kouziqi medicinal materials had a decreased saponin content and poor stability, which proved that Pueraria lobata extract can inhibit the oxidative degradation of saponin components, improve the stability of the steamed product of Kouziqi medicinal materials, and avoid the loss of components during the preparation process.
[0150] In comparative example 5, the composite microcapsules prepared without adding tea polyphenols were mixed with the Chinese herbal medicine Kuziqi for preparation. The steamed product of the prepared Kuziqi medicinal material had a decreased saponin content and poor stability, which proved that the phenolic hydroxyl groups contained in tea polyphenols could form a stable system by hydrogen bonding and cross-linking with the active groups in Salvia miltiorrhiza extract, Astragalus membranaceus extract, and Pueraria lobata extract, which was beneficial for the encapsulation of β-cyclodextrin. In addition, tea polyphenols have an antioxidant effect, can significantly scavenge DPPH free radicals, prevent the thermal decomposition of saponins, and have a synergistic effect with Pueraria lobata extract in inhibiting the oxidative degradation of saponin components.
[0151] In comparative example 6, the composite microcapsules prepared without adding citric acid were mixed with the medicinal materials of Kouziqi for preparation. The steamed product of Kouziqi medicinal materials prepared had a decreased saponin content and poor stability, which proved that citric acid, as a cross-linking agent, can combine with tea polyphenols and β-cyclodextrin through chemical bonds, thereby increasing the cross-linking density of the microcapsules and thus increasing the embedding rate. In addition, citric acid can inhibit starch gelatinization, prevent starch from gelatinizing easily, wrap the saponin components in Kouziqi, form a physical barrier, and reduce the dissolution rate of saponins.
[0152] In Comparative Example 7, the composite microcapsules were replaced with composite materials and mixed with the button seven medicinal materials for preparation. The saponin content of the prepared button seven medicinal material steamed product decreased and the stability was poor, which proved that using the composite material as the core material and β-cyclodextrin and citric acid as the capsule material to form microcapsules can improve the stability of the composite material. During the preparation process of the puffed button seven medicinal materials, the internal moisture evaporated rapidly, the outer layer dried and shrank, and stress was generated, which caused the composite microcapsules entering the puffed button seven medicinal materials to rupture, releasing the composite material, which played a role inside the button seven medicinal materials and improved the preparation efficiency.
