Description

[0002] Geosaurus, also known as earthworm, belongs to the class Oligochaeta in the phylum Annelida and is an animal-based traditional Chinese medicine. Studies have shown that earthworms have the potential to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, dissolve blood clots and lower blood pressure, fight tumors, relieve asthma and cough, and alleviate inflammation and pain.

[0003] Earthworm protein is extracted from earthworms and contains collagenase, plasmin, lumbrokinase, nucleic acid, trace elements and other components. Its molecular weight is between 5,000 and 10,000, and it is a short-chain small molecule substance.

[0004] Earthworm protein contains a variety of components, including collagenase, plasmin, nucleic acids, and trace elements.

[0179] S02, adding EDC (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride) and NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide) to the first mixed solution to prepare a second mixed solution;

[0180] The dopamine-PEG-NH2 and water are mixed to prepare a third mixed solution;

[0181] S03, mixing the second mixed solution and the third mixed solution and reacting them at 25° C. for 6 hours; after the reaction is completed, collecting the solid phase to obtain dopamine-modified activated carbon;

[0182] The mass ratio of dopamine-PEG-NH2 and EDC was 10:1;

[0183] The mass ratio of EDC and NHS is 2:1;

[0184] The mass ratio of carboxyl-modified activated carbon and dopamine-PEG-NH2 was 10:1.

[0185] The preparation method of carboxyl-modified activated carbon is carried out with reference to Example 5.

[0186] Comparative Example 4

[0187] This comparative example is a method for preparing earthworm protein, which differs from Example 5 in that dopamine-modified activated carbon is replaced by activated carbon.

[0188] Comparative Example 5

[0189] This comparative example is a method for preparing earthworm protein, which differs from Example 5 in that: dopamine-modified activated carbon is replaced with carboxyl-modified activated carbon;

[0190] The preparation method of carboxyl-modified activated carbon is carried out with reference to Example 5.

[0191] The extraction effect of the earth dragon protein obtained by the embodiment and the comparative example was tested by the following method:

[0192] 1. Test method

[0193] 1.1 Determination of thrombin time (TT)

[0194] Thrombin was dissolved in saline (5 μL / mL), and then 0.2 mL of the plasma to be tested was taken and maintained at 37°C for 3 min. 0.2 mL of the dissolved thrombin was added. Equal amounts of the earthworm protein obtained in the Examples and Comparative Examples (0.1 mL of a 100 μg / mL earthworm protein solution in saline) were added to the plasma, shaken, and the timer was started. Each experiment was repeated 5 times.

[0195] 1.2 Determination of earthworm protein yield

[0196] The water content of living earthworms was determined according to the method in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The earthworm protein yield was calculated as follows:

[0197] Protein yield = total amount of earthworm protein obtained / [mass of living earthworm × (1-r)];

[0198] Wherein, r is the water content of fresh earthworms.

[0199] 2. Test results

[0200] The thrombin time and yield are shown in Table 1. From the results, it can be seen that the earthworm protein prepared in the embodiment of the present invention can significantly prolong the thrombin time compared with the comparative example.
