Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of brewing technology, and in particular to a method for preparing selenium-enriched health-preserving rice wine. Background Technology
[0002] Yellow rice wine contains a variety of amino acids, peptides, polyphenols and active ingredients, and has certain health benefits. It is a fermented wine made from grains (millet) as the main raw material and brewed using a variety of microorganisms contained in the koji (wine yeast, wheat koji or rice koji).
[0003] Selenium is present in various tissues and fluids of the human body and is an important component of glutathione peroxidase in red blood cells. Its main function in the body is antioxidation, specifically scavenging peroxides and free radicals. Selenium enters the human body through the food chain, meaning that the level of selenium in the body is closely related to the local food and herbs. Selenium is also a known anticancer agent, reducing the risk of cancer and coronary heart disease. It plays a crucial role in enhancing immunity, antioxidation, cancer prevention, and cardiovascular protection. Selenium deficiency is associated with Keshan disease, Kashin-Beck disease, and various chronic diseases.
[0004] Most current selenium-enriched wines use inorganic selenium salts (such as sodium selenite and sodium selenate) added directly. However, this method suffers from low bioavailability, significant toxicity, and poor stability in the wine. For example, patent CN101323827A discloses a method for producing selenium-enriched rice wine, using sodium selenite as the selenium source and preparing a selenium solution with distilled water, which is then added in stages during the rice wine fermentation process. Selenium-enriched wines, or those using selenium-rich crops as the main fermentation material, are beneficial for human absorption. However, the characteristics of these crops impart a certain flavor to the fermented wine. For instance, patent CN104928108A discloses a method for producing selenium-enriched rice wine, using selenium-rich crops as the main fermentation material, mixing them with wheat koji in a specific ratio before fermentation, resulting in rice wine with selenium content meeting national standards for selenium-enriched rice wine. Furthermore, patent CN110616122A discloses a type of selenium-enriched rice wine made from *Houtingia sibiricum* (a type of wild rice wine). This involves preparing *Houtingia sibiricum* into a juice containing its active ingredients or into powder. The post-fermentation product of glutinous rice is filtered and then the juice containing the active ingredients is added. Alternatively, *Houtingia sibiricum* powder is added to the pre-fermentation product of glutinous rice, followed by fermentation and filtration to obtain the selenium-enriched rice wine. However, the resulting rice wine inevitably has a strong pungent odor, and the high content of magnesium and calcium ions in the liquid results in unpleasant taste and aroma.
[0005] In contrast, organic selenium is more suitable for use in functional foods and beverages due to its high safety and good absorption rate. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a selenium-enriched rice wine with organic selenium as the main form, which is free of sediment, highly stable, and can both inherit the traditional flavor of rice wine and enhance its functional value. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Therefore, this invention proposes a method for preparing selenium-enriched health-preserving rice wine.
[0007] The technical solution of this invention is implemented as follows: A method for preparing selenium-enriched health-preserving rice wine, comprising the following specific steps: S1. Select raw materials, clean, soak and cook them, cool them, add yeast, and ferment them to obtain fermented liquid; S2. Mix the selenium source, chitosan solution and cationic guar gum solution, stir ultrasonically, adjust the pH to 4.0-4.5, and perform plasma treatment to obtain selenium-encapsulated material; S3. Add the selenium-encapsulated material to the fermentation liquid, add glucose, perform ultra-high pressure treatment, store, filter, and bottle to obtain the target selenium-enriched health-preserving rice wine.
[0008] Furthermore, in step S1, the raw material is glutinous rice, rice, or wheat koji; and the temperature is cooled to 25-30°C.
[0009] Furthermore, in step S1, the amount of yeast added is 10%-15% of the raw material mass; the fermentation time is 10-20 days.
[0010] Furthermore, in step S2, the selenium source is selenium yeast and selenium polysaccharide in a mass ratio of 1:1-3.
[0011] Furthermore, the selenium yeast is brewer's yeast or wine yeast obtained by culturing in a selenium-containing medium, wherein the selenium-containing medium is selenomethionine or selenocysteine.
[0012] Furthermore, the selenium polysaccharide is any one of oyster mushroom polysaccharide, shiitake mushroom polysaccharide, Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide, or Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide.
[0013] Further, in step S2, the concentration of the chitosan solution is 0.5%-2.0% w / v; the concentration of the cationic guar gum solution is 0.5%-2.0% w / v; and the mass ratio of the selenium source to the chitosan solution and the cationic guar gum solution is (0.2-0.4):(3-5):(0.1-0.3).
[0014] Furthermore, in step S2, the ultrasonic stirring is performed at 200-300 rpm for 40-60 minutes; the plasma treatment is performed in an oxygen atmosphere for 3-5 minutes.
[0015] Furthermore, in step S3, the mass-to-volume ratio of the selenium encapsulation material to the fermentation broth is 1-3:1 g / L; the mass ratio of the selenium encapsulation material to glucose is 1:0.6-0.8.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S3, the ultra-high pressure treatment is performed at 400-600 MPa for 8-10 minutes; the storage is performed at 15-20℃ for 30-60 days.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention uses selenium yeast and selenium polysaccharides as selenium sources, which are natural and safe and are beneficial to human absorption. The total selenium content in the final rice wine is 150-250 μg / L, of which organic selenium accounts for ≥90%, and the bioavailability is significantly improved.
[0018] 2. The interaction between the chitosan solution and cationic guar gum in this invention can completely encapsulate the selenium source, solving the problems of easy deactivation, instability, and impact on taste of the selenium source in the wine. Through plasma treatment, the selenium encapsulation material has better compatibility with the fermentation broth, does not produce precipitation, and enhances the stability of the selenium encapsulation material.
[0019] 3. The addition of glucose in this invention not only promotes the activation of selenium inclusions and the absorption of selenium, but also enriches the flavor of the wine. In addition, it can maintain osmotic pressure balance during subsequent ultra-high pressure treatment without affecting the quality of the rice wine.
[0020] 4. The ultra-high pressure treatment of this invention can not only achieve sterilization and improve safety, but also retain the aroma, flavor and nutrition of rice wine to the maximum extent, maintain the original color, improve the taste and enhance the product quality.
