Abstract

Removal of caffeine from theapolyphenol by supercritical dioxide process is carried out by: using CO2 in food grade, converting it into supercritical CO2 by pressure, putting theapolyphenol in a extractor, filling supercritical CO2 at high pressure to soak it fully, continuously and selectively extracting out by selecting parameters such as temperature and pressure and time to obtain theapolyphenol without residual solvent and low caffeine content, which can be used in food and health-care food and medicines as anti-oxidizing agent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for removing caffeine in tea polyphenols, in particular to a method for removing caffeine in tea polyphenols with supercritical carbon dioxide. 2 As a solvent, remove the caffeine in tea polyphenols to obtain tea polyphenols products with low caffeine content. It belongs to the field of deep processing of tea products. Background technique [0002] Tea polyphenols are polyphenolic compounds extracted from tea leaves. Recent studies have shown that tea polyphenols have anti-cancer, anti-radiation, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and other effects, and have important application value in health food and medicine. However, tea polyphenol products directly extracted from tea leaves generally contain about 2% to 10% caffeine. Excessive caffeine may affect the physiological system of the human body, showing symptoms such as restlessness, insomnia, easy to wake up, diarrhea, headache and heart palpitations. I...
