Abstract

The supercritical carbon dioxide process for extracting lutein from merigold flower includes the extraction of fermented, dried and crushed merigold flower material with supercritical carbon dioxide having ethanol entrainer to obtain merigold flower extractum and the saponification of merigold flower extractum with potassium hydroxide to obtain water soluble lutein resin used as edible color. The present invention has simple technological process with low power consumption and environment friendship and the product has high purity, pure color, high heat and light stability and stable color.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to a method for extracting lutein, in particular to a method for preparing edible natural yellow pigment by extracting lutein from marigold flowers with supercritical carbon dioxide. Background technique: [0002] Among the colorants used in food, beverage, cosmetics and other industries, chemically synthesized colorants account for a large proportion, but are gradually being eliminated due to their certain toxicity and side effects. At present, many kinds of natural colorants which are non-toxic, pollution-free and beneficial to human health are gradually being developed and utilized by people. Lutein has attracted more and more attention due to its bright color, strong coloring power, safety, non-toxicity, and rich nutrition. It is widely used in various fields such as food, cosmetics, medicine, tobacco, and poultry feed. Lutein is mainly composed of lutein, the molecular formula of lutein: C 40 h 56 o 2 , the molecular wei...
