Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of natural products, and in particular relates to a method for obtaining rare ginsenosides by transforming edible fungi. Background Technology

[0002] Ginseng (Latin name: Panax ginseng CAMey.), first recorded in the *Shennong Bencao Jing* (Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica), is the dried root of the ginseng plant, belonging to the genus *Panax* in the family Araliaceae. Also known as red ginseng, white ginseng, etc., it is mainly produced in Northeast my country, with Jilin ginseng being the most renowned and commonly called "Jilin ginseng." Wild ginseng is called "mountain ginseng," while artificially cultivated ginseng is called "garden ginseng."

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine believes that ginseng is sweet and slightly bitter in taste, and warm in nature. It can greatly replenish vital energy, restore pulse and prevent collapse, tonify the spleen and lungs, promote body fluid and nourish blood, and calm the mind and improve intelligence. Modern scientific research has confirmed that ginseng has multiple activities, including enhancing immunity, anti-oxidation, anti-aging, anti-tumor, cardiotonic effects, and improving learning and memory. Ginsenosides, ginseng polysaccharides, amino acids, and volatile oils are the main components of ginseng, among which ginsenosides are the main active ingredients.

[0004] Ginsenosides can be classified into ginsenoside A (ginsenoside diol type) and ginsenoside B (ginsenoside triol type) according to their aglycones.

[0005] There are three types of ginsenosides: A and B (type A and type B), oleanolic acid type (type C), and ginsenosides of different types (types A and B). Type A and B ginsenosides belong to the dammarane-type tetracyclic triterpenoids, while type C ginsenosides belong to the oleanolic acid-type pentacyclic triterpenoids. Based on the aglycone, they can be further divided into 20(S)-ginsenoside diol series, such as ginsenosides Rb1, Rb2, Rc, and Rd; and 20(S)-ginsenoside triol series, such as ginsenosides Rg1, Rg2, and Re. The total saponin content in ginseng root is approximately 5%. Currently, about 60 types of ginsenosides have been isolated. The content of different ginsenosides in ginseng varies. Common saponins such as Rb1 and Rg1 are present in relatively high amounts in ginseng, while rare saponins such as Rh2 and CK are present in very low amounts.

[0006] Currently, the main methods for converting ginsenosides include acid-base hydrolysis, decoction / reflux extraction, enzymatic conversion, and microbial fermentation. Among these, acid-base hydrolysis has been gradually replaced by other methods due to problems such as acid and alkali residues, high pollution levels, and difficulties in subsequent purification. Microbial fermentation not only has advantages such as high selectivity, mild conditions, and environmental friendliness, but it can also convert high-content common saponins into rare saponins, with an increase of 50-2000 times; therefore, microbial fermentation is gradually becoming one of the main methods for obtaining rare ginsenosides. However, microbial fermentation also has limitations such as long strain screening cycles and limitations in process parameters.

[0007] There are issues such as sensitivity to pH, temperature, and substrate ratio. Therefore, it is essential to improve the existing process for obtaining rare ginsenosides using microbial fermentation. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for obtaining rare ginsenosides by converting edible fungi.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of the present invention is:

[0010] A method for preparing rare ginsenosides from edible fungi includes the following steps:

[0011] (1) After activating the edible fungi strains, they were inoculated into a liquid culture medium for primary culture to obtain a primary culture system;

[0012] (2) Ginseng substrate or ginseng extract is added to a nutrient matrix to prepare ginseng fermentation matrix;

[0013] (3) Add the primary culture system obtained in step (1) to the ginseng fermentation substrate obtained in step (2) for co-culture transformation reaction to obtain a transformation mixture;

[0014] (4) After drying the fermented ginseng obtained in step (3), a ginseng product containing rare ginsenosides can be obtained.

[0015] Preferably, the edible fungus mentioned in step (1) is one of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus plantarum, or Lactobacillus acidophilus.

[0016] Preferably, the primary culture conditions in step (1) are: temperature 25-32℃, shaking speed 120-180rpm, and culture time 3-7 days.

[0017] Preferably, the ginseng substrate in step (2) is one of ginseng slices, ginseng powder, ginseng root, ginseng tissue culture adventitious root, or ginseng cells; and the ginseng extract is a water extract of ginseng tissue culture adventitious root.

[0018] Preferably, the nutrient matrix in step (2) is composed of one or more of rice flour, wheat bran, soybean skin, soybean flour, corn flour, and malt flour, along with a glucose aqueous solution.

[0019] Preferably, the co-culture transformation conditions in step (3) are: temperature 28-35℃, pH 4.5-6.5, dissolved oxygen 30-70%, and transformation time 24-120 hours.

[0020] Preferably, the drying method described in step (4) is freeze drying or spray drying.

[0021] Preferably, the rare saponins mentioned in step (4) include at least one of Rg1, Re, Rf, Rb1, Rg2(S), Rg2(R), Rb2, Rb3, Rd, Rg3(S), Rg3(R), Rk1, Rg5, Rh2(S), or Rh2(R).

[0022] A rare ginsenoside composition comprising rare ginsenosides obtained by the aforementioned method, specifically comprising: Rg3 10-40wt%, Rh2 15-50wt%, Rf 5-30wt%, with the remainder being other saponin components and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.

[0023] Preferably, the carrier comprises at least two of microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, or silicon dioxide.

[0024] The principle of the method for preparing rare ginsenosides from edible fungi provided by this invention is as follows:

[0025] The method for preparing rare ginseng saponins by converting edible fungi provided in this invention mainly uses Lactobacillus bulgaricus fermentation to efficiently convert the most abundant common saponins in ginseng, such as Rb1 and Re, into highly active rare saponins such as Rg3, CK, and Rh2. Lactobacillus bulgaricus is a type of lactic acid bacteria and one of the commonly used edible fungi, widely used in the fermentation of yogurt and other fermented products. Specifically, in the process of preparing rare ginseng saponin products, the enzymes secreted by Lactobacillus bulgaricus can act on the glycosides linked at the C-3, C-6, and C-20 positions of ginseng saponins, thus converting the high-content common saponins into more active rare saponins.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the method for preparing rare ginsenosides from edible fungi provided by this invention are as follows:

[0027] (1) The method for preparing rare ginsenosides by edible fungi provided by the present invention can transform ginseng through solid fermentation. This method has the advantages of stable transformation, high yield, and the presence of the transformed product in the original ginseng sample. Therefore, the content of rare ginsenosides in the transformed ginseng sample is significantly increased, and it can exert a higher pharmacological effect.

[0028] (2) The method for preparing rare ginseng saponins by edible fungi provided by the present invention uses ultrasound to assist in the preparation of ginseng water extract, which can destroy the cell wall of ginseng cells, promote the release and dissolution of effective components, and thus improve the extraction efficiency of ginseng samples in water.

[0029] (3) The method for preparing rare ginsenosides by converting edible fungi provided by the present invention can ensure the stability of the content of rare ginsenosides in ginseng samples, thereby improving the quality and application effect of the product. Detailed Implementation
