Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicines, and in particular to a microcapsule containing ganoderma lucidum spore oil and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ganoderma lucidum spore oil is a natural, fat-soluble active substance extracted from Ganoderma lucidum spores. It is released from mature reproductive cells and is rich in a variety of active substances. It is one of the core functional ingredients of Ganoderma lucidum. With its rich triterpenoids, unsaturated fatty acids, and sterols, Ganoderma lucidum spore oil demonstrates remarkable efficacy in immune regulation, anti-tumor, antioxidant, and liver protection, and has attracted significant attention in the fields of functional foods, health products, and pharmaceuticals. However, its strong fat solubility not only makes it difficult to disperse in aqueous systems, but also significantly reduces the body's absorption and utilization of the active ingredients. Furthermore, Ganoderma lucidum spore oil is extremely chemically sensitive and is susceptible to oxidative rancidity under the influence of environmental factors such as light, oxygen, and high temperature, resulting in the loss of active ingredients and a serious weakening of the product's efficacy.

[0003] To overcome the application challenges of Ganoderma lucidum spore oil, the industry generally adopts traditional dosage forms such as soft capsules and emulsions. However, due to thermodynamic instability, emulsion systems are prone to stratification and flocculation during storage and transportation, resulting in serious stability issues in practical applications. Capsules, by comparison, offer greater stability, are more convenient to administer, and offer improved appearance and storage. However, existing soft capsule wall materials have a certain degree of oxygen permeability, which cannot completely isolate the contents from oxygen erosion, and the risk of oxidation persists during long-term storage. Therefore, preventing oxidation of Ganoderma lucidum spore oil caused by oxygen permeability in soft capsules has become a research hotspot. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a microcapsule containing ganoderma lucidum spore oil and a preparation method thereof.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A microcapsule containing ganoderma lucidum spore oil comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 60-80 parts of ganoderma lucidum spore oil, 1-5 parts of propyl gallate, 25-30 parts of American ginseng powder, 90-100 parts of sea buckthorn fruit oil, 2-10 parts of rhodiola rosea extract, 50-80 parts of gum arabic, 50-80 parts of gelatin, 1-10 parts of sodium alginate, 20-30 parts of glycerin, 5-20 parts of beta-cyclodextrin, 5-20 parts of maltodextrin, 50-60 parts of deionized water, and 5-20 parts of calcium chloride aqueous solution.

[0007] Propyl gallate is a phenolic antioxidant with multiple biological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory.

[0008] American ginseng powder is a powder made from the dried roots of American ginseng, which has the effects of replenishing qi and nourishing yin, clearing away heat and promoting salivation.

[0009] Sea buckthorn berry oil is a natural oil extracted from sea buckthorn fruit. It is rich in active ingredients such as fatty acids, vitamins, flavonoids, etc. It has the effects of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, protecting gastrointestinal mucosa, regulating blood lipids, improving blood vessel elasticity, moisturizing and repairing skin, enhancing immunity, and anti-fatigue.

[0010] Rhodiola rosea extract is an active ingredient extracted from the Crassulaceae plant Rhodiola rosea. It is rich in salidroside, tyrosol, flavonoids and other substances, and has the effects of anti-fatigue, enhancing immunity and anti-oxidation.

[0027] Performance testing Ergosterol is a substance unique to Ganoderma lucidum spore oil. The content of Ganoderma lucidum spore oil is determined by detecting ergosterol. 0.5 g of the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules prepared in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Example 1 are weighed to prepare a sample. The total ergosterol content is X determined by HPLC. The sample is then placed in a 60° C. oven for 7 days. The sample is taken out and added to 10 ml of methanol. Ultrasonication is performed for 30 minutes to rupture the microcapsules and release the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil. The total ergosterol content is Y determined by HPLC. The retention rate of ergosterol is calculated using the formula (XY) / X×100%. The data are shown in the following table:

[0028] It can be seen from the above table that the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules prepared in Examples 1 to 3 have good stability and airtightness, while the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules prepared in Comparative Example 1 have poor stability and airtightness.

[0029] Anti-aging test Fifty rats weighing 160-180 g were randomly selected, half male and half female, and divided into 5 groups with 10 rats in each group, namely a blank control group, an embodiment group 1, an embodiment group 2, an embodiment group 3 and a comparative example group. The blank control group was injected with 100 ml of normal saline every day. Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules of the corresponding group were used at a dosage of 0.05 mg / kg, decocted with water, and gavage was performed on the rats once a day, 100 ml at a time, for 40 consecutive days. During the experiment, the mental state, activity ability, diet, hair color and density of the mice were observed every day. After the experiment, the mice were fasted for 12 h, blood was collected by eye bleeding method, serum was separated, and the content of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and peroxidase (POD) in the serum was detected by biochemical analyzer. The test results are shown in the following table:

[0030] Note: ▲ Compared with the blank group, P < 0.05.

[0031] It can be seen from the above table that the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules prepared in Examples 1 to 3 have good anti-aging effects on rats, while the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil microcapsules prepared in Comparative Example 1 do not have calcium chloride aqueous solution added, resulting in poor wall material wrapping, reduced Ganoderma lucidum spore oil content, and poor anti-aging effect on rats.

[0032] The above content is merely an example and explanation of the concept of the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or replace them in a similar manner. As long as they do not deviate from the concept of the invention or exceed the scope defined by the claims, they should all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
