Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of health care products and functional foods, and particularly to a preparation method of a lycopene phospholipid complex. Background Art
[0002] Lycopene is a fat-soluble natural carotenoid, mainly present in the ripe fruits of Solanaceae plants such as tomatoes, and is also a strong antioxidant in natural plants. Lycopene contains a highly unsaturated structure and has biological activities such as quenching singlet oxygen, scavenging free radicals, anti-inflammatory, preventing atherosclerosis, enhancing immunity, improving cardiovascular diseases, and anti-tumor. Lycopene and its products are widely used in the food industry as nutritional fortifiers, health foods, etc. However, lycopene has poor water solubility. Although its phospholipid complex can be prepared to improve its water solubility, the lycopene phospholipid complex is viscous and difficult to scrape off and solidify, resulting in low overall utilization rate and affecting the preparation of downstream preparations. If the solvent is not completely removed, it will affect the quality and safety of downstream preparations and result in low overall solid content. Therefore, the field has been struggling to find a method to solve the problem that the complex is viscous and difficult to scrape off from the vessel after the solvent is completely removed, and is eager to obtain a lycopene phospholipid complex that is easy to scrape off from the vessel after the solvent is completely removed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a lycopene complex to improve the technique that the lycopene phospholipid complex is viscous and difficult to scrape off from the vessel. Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a lycopene phospholipid composite composition that is relatively viscous and easier to scrape off from the vessel.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
