In recent years, the research on calf thymus active polypeptide has gradually emerged. Due to its potential application value in immune regulation, anti-tumor and other aspects, it has attracted much attention. However, the current research on calf thymus active polypeptide is still in the development stage. During the preparation process, many challenges are faced, and the most prominent one is the problem of low yield of active polypeptide protein. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention provides a preparation method and application of calf thymus active polypeptide, which solves the problem of low yield of calf thymus active polypeptide in the related art.
[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: The present invention provides a preparation method of calf thymus active polypeptide, which includes the following steps: After pretreatment of calf thymus, through degreasing, pulverizing and pulping, centrifugal extraction, enzymatic hydrolysis, enzyme inactivation, ultrafiltration, concentration, and ultra-high temperature sterilization, calf thymus active polypeptide is obtained. The centrifugation is carried out three times, and the centrifugation rates of the three times are different, and the centrifugation rate of the first centrifugation < the centrifugation rate of the second centrifugation < the centrifugation rate of the third centrifugation.
[0005] As a further technical solution, the centrifugation rate of the first centrifugation is 40000 r / min, the centrifugation rate of the second centrifugation is 44000 r / min, and the centrifugation rate of the third centrifugation is 48000 r / min.
[0006] In the present invention, a high-speed centrifugation method is used to obtain a high-yield protein solution. A higher centrifugation rate can quickly sediment large particle impurities and achieve rapid solid-liquid separation. A higher centrifugation rate helps to break the residual structure of cells and the interaction between proteins, so that the active polypeptide originally wrapped in cells or combined with other substances is more fully released into the extraction solution, thereby improving the yield of calf thymus active polypeptide.
[0007] As a further technical solution, the total centrifugation time is 30 min, and the centrifugation time for the first centrifugation, the second centrifugation, and the third centrifugation is 10 min each.
[0008] As a further technical solution, the centrifugal extraction includes the following steps: subjecting the pulverized slurry to primary centrifugation to obtain a first extract, subjecting the first protein solution to secondary centrifugation to obtain a second extract, mixing the first extract and the second extract, subjecting the mixture to tertiary centrifugation, and adding an acid hydrolyzing agent to obtain a protein solution.

Composite enzymes are used in the fourth to sixth stages. Different proteases in the composite enzyme can act synergistically to further perform more refined cleavage on the peptide segments after preliminary hydrolysis, decompose them into smaller active polypeptide fragments, and achieve deep hydrolysis of proteins to improve the yield of active polypeptides from calf thymus.

[0017] In the present invention, a reasonable enzymatic hydrolysis temperature and the time of each stage of enzymatic hydrolysis are set to promote the protease to maintain a high activity, control the enzymatic hydrolysis rate, and improve the yield of calf thymus active polypeptide.
[0018] As a further technical solution, the mass ratio of alkaline protease to neutral protease in the fourth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 1:1, the mass ratio of alkaline protease to papain in the fifth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 1:1, and the mass ratio of neutral protease to papain in the sixth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 1:1.
[0019] In the present invention, the synergistic effect of the compound protease is fully exerted to enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and improve the yield of calf thymus active polypeptide.
[0020] As a further technical solution, the pH of the first-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 8 - 12, the pH of the second-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 6 - 8, the pH of the third-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 6 - 8, the pH of the fourth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 6 - 10, the pH of the fifth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 6 - 10, and the pH of the sixth-stage enzymatic hydrolysis is 6 - 8.

[0022] In the present invention, the defatting is carried out twice to ensure the cumulative effect of the defatting effect and achieve the purpose of deep defatting.
[0023] As a further technical solution, the temperature of the defatting is 0 - 25°C, and the mass ratio of the aqueous sodium hydroxide solution with a mass concentration of 0.1% used for each defatting to the calf thymus is 100:1.

[0032] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: In the present invention, taking calf thymus as the raw material, performing pretreatment and defatting operations on it can effectively remove fats, impurities and possible microorganisms in the raw material. This can not only avoid the interference of fats on the extraction of active polypeptide in the subsequent preparation process, prevent it from wrapping the active ingredients and affecting the extraction efficiency, but also reduce the adverse effects of impurities on key steps such as enzymatic hydrolysis and ultrafiltration, providing a pure and high-quality raw material basis for the subsequent preparation process, thereby helping to improve the yield of the final product; three centrifugations at different rates, and the centrifugation rate gradually increases. The first centrifugation uses a relatively low centrifugation rate, which can separate and remove large particle impurities in the raw material, playing a role in initially purifying the extract and avoiding the influence of these large particle substances on subsequent fine operations. The second centrifugation increases the centrifugation rate, which can further separate smaller impurity particles, making the extract more pure. The third centrifugation uses the highest centrifugation rate to ensure a high yield of the finally obtained active polypeptide protein; subsequent processes of enzymatic hydrolysis, enzyme inactivation, concentration and ultra-high temperature sterilization ensure the stability and biological activity of the active polypeptide, and ensure the safety and stability of the product.
