Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of natural antibacterial agents, and in particular relates to a vehicle-use deodorizing antibacterial emulsion containing compound plant essential oil and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the times, the number of cars is increasing, and the closed environment inside the car provides conditions for the growth of bacteria, especially Staphylococcus aureus. And as time accumulates, the odor and harmful gases emitted by the interior of the car will also have adverse effects on the human body. At present, most car interior cleaning and disinfection use chemical agents, which may cause secondary pollution when cleaning the car, bringing a bad experience to the people in the car who are in this environment for a long time.

[0003] Natural plants have a long history of medicinal use in China, and many essential oil components have also been clinically proven to have antibacterial activity. They are popular because of their low toxicity, greenness, and environmentally friendly preparation. Some plant essential oils can also absorb foreign matter and harmful gases, playing a role in refreshing the air.

[0004] However, the essential oils currently on the market have also exposed some drawbacks in practical applications. For example, due to the high volatility of pure essential oil products, the antibacterial effect of essential oils is unstable or even weak during use; for another example, the low water solubility and complex composition of essential oils themselves lead to poor compatibility of compound essential oils, making it difficult to prepare suitable dosage forms. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the current problems of bacterial contamination and odor in automobiles, and to provide a deodorizing and antibacterial emulsion containing compound plant essential oil for automobiles and an application method thereof.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a deodorizing and antibacterial emulsion for vehicles containing compound plant essential oils, and the raw material composition thereof is calculated by weight percentage: 1%-2% of atractylodes lancea essential oil, 1%-5% of chuanxiong essential oil, 1%-3% of elsholtzia essential oil, 1%-5% of tangerine peel essential oil, 1%-5% of star anise essential oil, 20%-30% of chuanxiong aromatic water, 20%-30% of elsholtzia aromatic water, 4%-10% of emulsifier, and 10%-20% of dispersant.

[0007] Among them, the extraction methods of atractylodes lancea essential oil, tangerine peel essential oil and star anise essential oil are as follows: crush atractylodes lancea, tangerine peel and star anise respectively, put them in a round-bottom flask, add deionized water, pretreat them by ultrasound for 10 minutes, heat them to boiling, extract volatile oil by steam distillation, collect the upper oily liquid in the volatile oil extractor, and obtain the essential oil.

[0008] The extraction methods of Chuanxiong essential oil, Elsholtzia essential oil, Chuanxiong aromatic water and Elsholtzia aromatic water are as follows: respectively crush Chuanxiong and Elsholtzia, put them in a round-bottom flask, add deionized water, pre-treat them by ultrasonic for 10 minutes, heat them to boiling, extract them by steam distillation, collect the upper oily liquid in the volatile oil extractor to obtain the essential oil, and collect the water liquid in the lower layer of the volatile oil extractor to obtain the aromatic water.

[0009] The mass volume ratio of solid to liquid in the above extraction process is 1:8 to 1:12; and the extraction time is 2 to 3.5 hours.

[0010] The emulsifier is Tween 80 and the dispersant is olive oil.

[0011] The preparation method of the deodorizing and antibacterial emulsion containing compound plant essential oil for vehicles is as follows:

[0012] (1) according to the above mass percentages, respectively, add atractylodes essential oil, chuanxiong essential oil, elsholtzia essential oil, tangerine peel essential oil, star anise essential oil and emulsifier Tween 80 to the dispersant olive oil to obtain an oil phase after the oil is completely dispersed;

[0013] (2) taking a mixture of the Rhizoma Chuanxiong and the Rhizoma Elsholtziae aromatic water according to the above mass percentages as the aqueous phase;

[0014] (3) At a water bath temperature of 56° C. and a stirring speed of 400 rpm, the oil phase is added to the water phase while stirring, so that the oil phase and the water phase are evenly mixed to obtain a uniform plant essential oil emulsion.

[0015] Beneficial Effects

[0016] The emulsion of the present invention is applied in the car, and its volatility and stability must be taken into consideration. Therefore, different natural plant essential oils are reasonably combined to prepare a compound emulsion, and the volatility of the essential oils is utilized to allow the essential oils to evaporate freely in the car, inhibiting bacteria while absorbing odors, and providing a fresh air environment in the car while maintaining the advantages of greenness and safety.

[0017] In the preparation process of the emulsion, the aromatic water produced in the essential oil extraction process is selected as the aqueous phase of the emulsion, thereby reducing the instability of the composite essential oil; in addition, in view of the high volatility of the essential oil, the present invention designs an application form of the compound essential oil emulsion, which, while utilizing the volatility of the essential oil, also enables the effective ingredients in the essential oil to achieve a slow release effect, thereby avoiding the unstable efficacy caused by its high volatility.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments, but is not limited thereto.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] 1. Extraction of various plant essential oils and aromatic waters

[0029] (1) 100 g each of Atractylodes lancea, dried tangerine peel, and star anise were respectively ground into coarse powder, passed through a 20-mesh sieve, placed in a round-bottom flask, and deionized water with a solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:12 (W / V) was added. The mixture was ultrasonically pretreated at 30° C. for 10 minutes. The round-bottom flask was removed, and a volatile oil extractor was placed on top of the flask, heated to boiling, and steam distillation was used to extract volatile oil from Atractylodes lancea, volatile oil from dried tangerine peel, and volatile oil from star anise. After extraction for 2.5 hours, the oily liquid in the volatile oil extractor was collected to obtain Atractylodes lancea essential oil, volatile oil from dried tangerine peel, and essential oil from star anise, respectively.

[0030] (2) 100 g each of Chuanxiong and Elsholtzia ciliata were respectively ground into coarse powder, passed through a 20-mesh sieve, placed in a round-bottom flask, and deionized water with a solid-liquid ratio of 1:12 (W / V) was added. The mixture was ultrasonically pretreated at 30°C for 10 min. The round-bottom flask was removed, and a volatile oil extractor was placed on top of it. The mixture was heated to boiling, and steam distillation was used to extract the volatile oil of Atractylodes lancea and the volatile oil of Elsholtzia ciliata. After extraction for 2.5 hours, the upper layer of the oily liquid in the volatile oil extractor was collected to obtain Chuanxiong essential oil and Elsholtzia ciliata essential oil, respectively. The water in the middle and lower layers of the volatile oil extractor was collected to obtain Chuanxiong aromatic water and Elsholtzia ciliata aromatic water, respectively.

[0031] 2. Preparation method of plant essential oil emulsion

[0032] Atractylodes lancea essential oil 1%, Chuanxiong essential oil 5%, Elsholtzia essential oil 3%, Tangerine peel essential oil 5%, Star anise essential oil 5%, Chuanxiong aromatic water 30%, Elsholtzia aromatic water 25%, Tween 80 emulsifier 8%, olive oil 18%.

[0033] (1) According to the above mass percentages, atractylodes essential oil, chuanxiong essential oil, elsholtzia essential oil, tangerine peel essential oil, star anise essential oil and emulsifier Tween 80 are added to olive oil to completely disperse them to obtain the oil phase of the emulsion.

[0034] (2) According to the above mass percentage, take the aromatic water of Chuanxiong and the aromatic water of Elsholtzia ciliata and mix them evenly to obtain the aqueous phase of the emulsion.

[0035] (3) adding the oil phase to the water phase while stirring at a water bath temperature of 56° C. and a stirring speed of 400 rpm to uniformly mix the oil phase and the water phase to obtain a uniform plant essential oil emulsion.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of Example 1, except that when the steam distillation method is used to extract the Atractylodes lancea essential oil, the solid-liquid ratio of the solvent used is different. The volume of the Atractylodes lancea essential oil obtained under different extraction conditions is shown in Table 1.

[0038] Table 1

[0039] Different extraction solvent solid-liquid ratio (W / V) Essential oil volume (mL) Solid-liquid ratio 1:7 1.43 Solid-liquid ratio 1:8 1.51 Solid-liquid ratio 1:9 1.62 Solid-liquid ratio 1:10 1.66 Solid-liquid ratio 1:11 1.73 Solid-liquid ratio 1:12 1.91 Solid-liquid ratio 1:13 1.97 Solid-liquid ratio 1:14 1.98

[0040] As can be seen from Table 1, when different solid-liquid ratios of solvents are used to extract essential oils, the solid-liquid ratios are different, and the volumes of essential oils extracted are also different. When the solid-liquid ratio (W / V) is 1:7, the volume of the obtained Atractylodes lancea essential oil is 1.43mL. As the amount of extraction solvent increases, the volume of essential oil extracted also increases continuously. When the solid-liquid ratio (W / V) is 1:12, the volume of Atractylodes lancea essential oil reaches 1.91mL. When the amount of solvent is further increased and the solid-liquid ratio (W / V) ratio of 1:13 and 1:14 is used for extraction, the volumes of essential oil obtained are 1.97mL and 1.98mL, respectively. It can be seen that when the volume of the extraction solvent exceeds 12 times the amount of medicinal materials, the amount of Atractylodes lancea essential oil obtained does not increase much, but the increase in the amount of solvent will bring a series of cumbersome operations. Therefore, the present invention optimizes the solid-liquid ratio (W / V) of the solvent used in the extraction of Atractylodes lancea essential oil to 1:12. Similarly, the optimized ratio of solvent solid-liquid ratio (W / V) used in the extraction of other essential oils was also set at 1:12.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of Example 1, except that when the steam distillation method is used to extract the Atractylodes lancea essential oil, the extraction time used is different. The specific extraction conditions and the volumes of the Atractylodes lancea essential oil obtained are shown in Table 2.

[0043] Table 2

[0044]

[0045] As can be seen from Table 2, with the increase of extraction time, the volume of essential oil extracted also increases continuously, and when the extraction time is 3h, the volume of Atractylodes lancea essential oil reaches 1.92mL. And continue to increase the extraction time, when reaching 3.5h, the volume of Atractylodes lancea essential oil obtained is respectively 2.03mL. It can be seen that when the extraction time exceeds 3h, the amount of Atractylodes lancea essential oil increases little, considering that the extraction time is longer and has a certain influence on the stability of volatile oil components, and the time cost of extraction, the present invention optimizes the Atractylodes lancea essential oil extraction time to 3h. Similarly, several other essential oil extraction times are also optimized to 3h.

[0047] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that in the second step of the preparation method of the plant essential oil emulsion, the raw materials are composed of:

[0052] Comparative Example 1

[0053] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that in the first step of the plant essential oil extraction method, the medicinal raw materials are not subjected to ultrasonic pretreatment, but are directly extracted by steam distillation.

[0054] Comparative Example 2

[0055] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that in the second step of the preparation method of the plant essential oil emulsion, distilled water is used instead of Chuanxiong aromatic water and Elsholtzia aromatic water, that is, the raw material composition is:

[0056] Atractylodes lancea essential oil 1%, Ligusticum chuanxiong essential oil 5%, Elsholtzia ciliata essential oil 3%, Tangerine peel essential oil 5%, Star anise essential oil 5%, distilled water 55%, Tween 80 emulsifier 8%, olive oil 18%.

[0057] Comparative Example 3

[0058] The preparation method of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, except that this embodiment does not contain plant essential oil extracts, but only contains Chuanxiong aromatic water and Elsholtzia aromatic water, that is, the raw material composition is: 30% Chuanxiong aromatic water, 25% Elsholtzia aromatic water, 8% Tween 80 emulsifier, and 37% olive oil.

[0059] Comparative Example 4

[0060] The preparation method is the same as that in Example 1, except that this example does not contain Atractylodes lancea essential oil and Tangerine peel essential oil extract, that is, the raw material composition is: 5% Chuanxiong essential oil, 3% Elsholtzia essential oil, 5% Star Anise essential oil, 30% Chuanxiong aromatic water, 30% Elsholtzia aromatic water, 8% Tween 80 emulsifier, and 19% olive oil.

[0061] Antibacterial experiment: inhibition zone experiment

[0062] The experiment was conducted with reference to the standards of the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). 15 mL of melted nutrient agar medium was added to a sterile plate and allowed to solidify. 10 mL of nutrient agar medium was taken up with a pipette. 6 Place 100uL of CFU / mL Staphylococcus aureus suspension on the plate and spread it evenly with a coating rod. Take another drug-sensitive paper (6mm in diameter), soak it in the sample solution to be tested for 30 minutes, take it out, and air-dry it in a sterile environment. Stick the drug-sensitive paper of the test sample and the blank control group (sterile water) on the plate, with the control sample in the middle and the test sample on the periphery. Incubate in a 37℃ incubator for 24 hours and observe the formation of the inhibition zone on the plate.

[0063] The sensitivity judgment standard of antibacterial effect: the diameter of the antibacterial circle <10mm is judged as low sensitivity and ineffective "-"; 10mm≤antibacterial diameter <15mm is judged as medium sensitivity and effective "+"; 15mm≤antibacterial diameter <20mm is judged as high sensitivity and effective "++". Each test sample must be repeated three times. If there is an inhibitory effect in all three experiments and no antibacterial circle is produced in the negative control group, the experimental result is judged to be qualified.

[0064] The antibacterial effects of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 (emulsions) on Staphylococcus aureus are shown in Table 3 and Attached Figure 1-6 shown.
