Polysaccharides are a kind of biological macromolecules existing in nature, which can be divided into animal and plant polysaccharides and fungal polysaccharides according to their sources. They play a key role in many aspects and have great potential for development in the fields of medicine, food, cosmetics, etc.

[0003] Polysaccharides are high-molecular-weight carbohydrates composed of sugar chains linked by glycosidic bonds, usually consisting of at least 10 monosaccharides. From the perspective of source, they can be divided into animal and plant polysaccharides and fungal polysaccharides. Animal polysaccharides mainly include glycogen, chitin, chondroitin sulfate, heparin, and keratin sulfate. Plant polysaccharides are mainly starch, pectin, cellulose, and poly-saccharides. Compared with animal and fungal polysaccharides, plant polysaccharides are relatively easy to extract and have a higher extraction rate. In recent years, it has been found that polysaccharides extracted from natural organisms have the advantages of safety, high efficiency, low toxicity, low cost, and good biocompatibility, and can assist in the treatment of various diseases and have a positive effect on physical health. Numerous studies have shown that plant polysaccharides have multiple active functions in immune regulation, antioxidant, anti-tumor, blood glucose and lipid-lowering, neuroprotection, and improvement of intestinal microecology.

[0036] Effect test 1. Polysaccharide determination method: 0 mL, 0.2 mL, 0.4 mL, 0.6 mL, 0.8 mL, 1.0 mL of 100 mg / L standard glucose working solution was taken by volume, and transferred to a 20 mL stoppered test tube, and distilled water was added to 1.0 mL. 1.0 mL of phenol solution was added to each tube, and 5.0 mL of sulfuric acid was added vertically and quickly, and after standing for 10 min, the reaction solution was shaken uniformly, and then reacted in a 30℃ water bath for 20 min, and the absorbance was measured at 490 nm. The standard curve was prepared with glucose mass as the independent variable and absorbance value as the dependent variable.

[0037] 0.5 mL of polysaccharide extract sample prepared by the present application was taken in a 20 mL stoppered colorimetric tube, and distilled water was added to 1.0 mL. Repeat the steps of drawing the standard curve, and measure the absorbance at 490 nm. The results are calculated.

[0038] The calculation formula for determining the content of polysaccharide in desert cistanche is: .9 10⁻ 4 In the formula: m1 is the sugar content in the sample determination liquid obtained from the standard curve, in micrograms (μg); V1 is the sample volume, in milliliters (mL); m2 is the sample mass, in grams (g); V2 is the volume of the sample determination liquid taken for colorimetric determination, in (mL); 0.9 is the correction factor for converting glucose to glucan.

[0039] The calculation result is retained to two decimal places, and the unit is expressed as per hundred grams (g / 100g) 2. Single factor and orthogonal test were designed for the ratio of material to solvent, extraction time and ultrasonic temperature to obtain the optimal extraction parameters (1) Effect of the ratio of material to solvent on the polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche The remaining steps were unchanged, and the ratio of material to solvent in Example 2 was set to 1:10, 1:20, 1:30, 1:40, and 1:50. The polysaccharide extract of desert Cistanche obtained was determined by the polysaccharide determination method, and the results were calculated.

[0040] The results are shown in Figure 2 The polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche was significantly affected by the ratio of material to solvent. When the ratio of material to solvent was increased to 1:30, the polysaccharide content was 6.17 g / 100 g, which was the maximum value at this level. This was because the polysaccharide could not be fully dissolved at the beginning, and as the ratio of material to solvent increased, the polysaccharide concentration difference in the extraction solution increased, which was more conducive to the dissolution of polysaccharide, thus increasing the polysaccharide content. When the ratio of material to solvent exceeded 1:30, the polysaccharide content decreased, because excessive water would cause other solutes to dissolve and impurities to increase, thereby affecting the polysaccharide content. Therefore, the ratio of material to solvent was selected as 1:20-1:40, which could ensure the full dissolution of polysaccharide and avoid the structural damage and impurity interference caused by excessive solvent.

[0041] (2) Effect of extraction time on the polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche The remaining steps were unchanged, and the ultrasonic extraction time in Example 2 was set to 30 min, 50 min, 70 min, 90 min, and 110 min. The polysaccharide extract of desert Cistanche obtained was determined by the polysaccharide determination method, and the results were calculated.

[0042] The results are shown in Figure 3 The polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche was significantly affected by the ratio of material to solvent. When the ratio of material to solvent was increased to 1:30, the polysaccharide content was 6.17 g / 100 g, which was the maximum value at this level. This was because the polysaccharide could not be fully dissolved at the beginning, and as the ratio of material to solvent increased, the polysaccharide concentration difference in the extraction solution increased, which was more conducive to the dissolution of polysaccharide, thus increasing the polysaccharide content. When the ratio of material to solvent exceeded 1:30, the polysaccharide content decreased, because excessive water would cause other solutes to dissolve and impurities to increase, thereby affecting the polysaccharide content. Therefore, the ratio of material to solvent was selected as 1:20-1:40, which could ensure the full dissolution of polysaccharide and avoid the structural damage and impurity interference caused by excessive solvent.

[0041] (2) Effect of extraction time on the polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche The remaining steps were unchanged, and the ultrasonic extraction time in Example 2 was set to 30 min, 50 min, 70 min, 90 min, and 110 min. The polysaccharide extract of desert Cistanche obtained was determined by the polysaccharide determination method, and the results were calculated.

[0042] The results are shown in Figure 3 The polysaccharide content of desert Cistanche was significantly affected by the ratio of material to solvent. When the ratio of material to solvent was increased to 1:30, the polysaccharide content was 6.17 g / 100 g, which was the maximum value at this level. This was because the polysaccharide could not be fully dissolved at the beginning, and as the ratio of material to solvent increased, the polysaccharide concentration difference in the extraction solution increased, which was more conducive to the dissolution of polysaccharide, thus increasing the polysaccharide content. When the ratio of material to solvent exceeded 1:30, the polysaccharide content decreased, because excessive water would cause other solutes to dissolve and impurities to increase, thereby affecting the polysaccharide content. Therefore, the ratio of material to solvent was selected as 1:20-1:40, which could ensure the full dissolution of polysaccharide and avoid the structural damage and impurity interference caused by excessive solvent.

[0043] (3) The rest of the steps remain unchanged, the ultrasonic temperature gradient in Example 2 is set to 30℃, 40℃, 50℃, 60℃, 70℃, and the desert Cistanche polysaccharide extract obtained is determined by the polysaccharide determination method, and the results are calculated.

[0044] The results are shown in Figure 4 As the temperature rises, the molecular motion becomes faster and the dissolution efficiency of the extract is continuously improved. When the temperature is 50℃, the maximum polysaccharide content is 5.34g / 100g. With the continuous increase of temperature, the hydrogen bond and other structures of the glycosidic bond are destroyed, resulting in the change of macromolecules into small molecular fragments or even monosaccharides, thereby reducing the polysaccharide content. At the same time, high temperature will also affect the rate of enzymatic reaction, when the enzyme activity decreases, the polysaccharide extraction rate will also decrease accordingly, so 40-60℃ is the suitable ultrasonic temperature range, which not only ensures the extraction rate of polysaccharide but also avoids the destruction of polysaccharide structure by high temperature.

[0045] (4) Orthogonal experimental design Based on the results of single factor experiment, the best level range of three key factors of solid-liquid ratio, extraction time and ultrasonic temperature is selected, then the L9(34) orthogonal experiment table is listed, and the three-factor three-level orthogonal experiment is carried out, so as to obtain the optimal process of desert Cistanche polysaccharide extraction. The test factors and levels are shown in Table 1.

[0046] Table 1 Three-factor three-level orthogonal table

[0047] Each group of experiments sets three parallel experiments, and the results are shown in Table 2: Table 3.2 Orthogonal experiment and results

[0048] As shown in Table 2, by carrying out orthogonal experiment and data processing, the influence of three factors on the content of desert Cistanche polysaccharide can be judged by k value and range R, and the optimal combination level of each factor is determined. The results show that the range R value of ultrasonic temperature is the largest, which indicates that this factor has the most significant influence on the extraction amount of polysaccharide; then is the solid-liquid ratio of desert Cistanche sample powder and water; finally is the extraction time. The optimal level value is A1B3C3, that is, when the ultrasonic temperature reaches 60℃, 1:20 water is added to the desert Cistanche powder, and the extraction time is set to 70min. Compared with other experimental combinations, this parameter setting significantly improves the polysaccharide extraction efficiency, and provides scientific process parameter basis for the industrialized extraction of desert Cistanche polysaccharide.

[0049] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as falling within the protection scope of the present application.
