Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bioengineering, and in particular to a method for purifying vitamin E, and further to a method for separating and purifying vitamin E from vitamin E powder. Background Art
[0002] Vitamin E (VE) is a fat-soluble vitamin and one of the most important antioxidants. Vitamin E can promote reproduction, promote the secretion of sex hormones, increase the vitality and quantity of sperm in men, increase the concentration of female hormones in women, improve fertility, and prevent miscarriage. At the same time, it delays aging, effectively reduces the formation of wrinkles, and maintains a youthful appearance. Vitamin E is a very important vasodilator and anticoagulant, which can be used to prevent and treat varicose veins, prevent blood coagulation, and reduce the formation of streaky tissue.
[0003] Other functions of vitamin E include: protecting T lymphocytes, protecting red blood cells, resisting free radical oxidation, inhibiting platelet aggregation, thereby reducing the risk of myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction. In addition, it also has a good effect on burns, frostbite, capillary bleeding, menopausal syndrome, and beauty.
[0004] Chinese patent CN105585552A discloses a decolorization and purification method of vitamin E, the method comprising the following steps: (a) providing a composite decolorizing agent to decolorize the vitamin E product; (b) eluting the decolorized vitamin E product obtained in step (a) with an eluent by column chromatography, and collecting the eluate fraction; (c) concentrating the eluate fraction obtained in step (b) to obtain decolorized and purified vitamin E, wherein, in step (a), the composite decolorizing agent is activated white clay: activated carbon: diatomaceous earth: magnesium silicate = 100: 50-100: 30-70: 10-50, by mass. The decolorization and purification method of vitamin E of the invention can not only make the color of vitamin E lighter, reduce viscosity, improve fluidity, but also improve the purity of vitamin E, and has less loss during the decolorization and purification process, and a high recovery rate of vitamin E.
[0005] Chinese patent CN102584769A discloses a method for preparing natural vitamin E with a content of more than 99%, using 40% natural VE, dissolving it in a certain proportion with 99% ethanol, cooling it to about 15°C, filtering to remove ethanol insolubles; then using secondary adsorption, first using macroporous adsorption resin to adsorb acidic impurities and pigments, etc., using anionic strong base resin to adsorb natural VE in the effluent, and then washing the anionic strong base resin with 99% ethanol to remove impurities such as methyl esters that are not adsorbed; then using a release agent to release VE, cooling the eluate to a certain temperature, filtering through micropores to remove ethanol insolubles; adding a specific remover to remove polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and adsorb other impurities, filtering to remove the remover, concentrating, desolventizing, and finally refining by three-stage molecular distillation to obtain the product. The content and purity of the product obtained by the invention can meet the quality requirements of EU countries and is a method for preparing natural vitamin E with a content of more than 99%.
