Abstract

The invention relates to a process for extracting curcumin through an ultrasonic-aqueous two-phase synergy. The process comprises the following steps of pulverizing curcuma, degreasing, carrying out ultrasonic extraction on curcumin with 75% ethanol to obtain an extract, adding an aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate into the extract, uniformly stirring, standing until an alcohol phase is separated from an aqueous phase in a balanced way, separating the alcohol phase, drying the alcohol phase at 45-50 DEG C to constant weight, dissolving the dried product in 75% ethanol to obtain a solution, enabling the solution to pass through macroporous resin, eluting with 75% ethanol, collecting and drying to obtain preliminarily purified curcumin. According to the process disclosed by the invention, by combining the ultrasonic extraction technology and aqueous two-phase extraction technology and adopting the extraction principle that effective substances are fully dissolved in an organic solvent, the extraction rate is greatly increased, on the basis that respective advantages of the ultrasonic extraction technology and the aqueous two-phase extraction technology are given into a play, the mutual synergistic effect of the ultrasonic extraction technology and the aqueous two-phase extraction technology is achieved and thus the extraction rate of curcumin reaches 18%.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant pigment extraction research, in particular to a pure natural curcumin ultrasonic-two-phase synergistic extraction process. Background technique

[0002] Turmeric is a natural food additive approved by WHO and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), belonging to the genus Curcuma longa. Curcumin, a natural medicinal and edible substance extracted from turmeric, is favored by users at home and abroad because it is safe and non-toxic and can regulate human physiological functions. The active ingredients that can be extracted from plant turmeric are curcumin and turmeric oil. Currently , The extraction methods of curcumin include alkaline water extraction, enzymatic extraction, alcohol extraction and so on. Alkaline water extraction is low in cost and can obtain pigment products with high purity and can be dried. However, due to the use of strong alkali in the operation process, the reaction condi...
