Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of health food technology, specifically to a prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule that enhances immunity and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] With the fast pace of modern life and increasing work pressure, the number of people in a sub-healthy state continues to expand, and problems such as weakened immunity and fatigue are becoming increasingly common. People are increasingly eager for natural, safe, and effective immune-regulating health foods. As traditional medicinal and edible ingredients, prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum have gained widespread attention in the health food industry due to their unique nutritional and efficacy advantages. Prickly pear is rich in natural vitamin C, polyphenols, and other antioxidants, which can effectively eliminate free radicals and reduce oxidative damage, providing a foundation for immune regulation. Ganoderma lucidum contains active ingredients such as polysaccharides and triterpenoids, which can activate immune cell activity and enhance the body's immune function. The two have a natural synergistic and complementary effect, providing a good foundation for developing compound immune-regulating health foods.

[0003] However, existing technologies for raw materials like prickly pear often employ conventional concentration and drying processes without specialized fermentation and low-temperature protection techniques. This results in easily oxidized components such as vitamin C and polyphenols being readily degraded by light, heat, and oxygen, leading to significant loss of active ingredients. Meanwhile, the preparation process for Ganoderma lucidum extract is rudimentary, with some products failing to strictly control the content of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides and triterpenoids, making it difficult to achieve effective concentrations. Furthermore, the two raw materials are often simply mixed without a scientifically balanced formulation, failing to fully leverage their synergistic effects in antioxidation and immune regulation, resulting in unstable product efficacy and poor results.

[0004] Furthermore, existing technologies do not employ precise grinding and homogenization processes, resulting in excessively large and uneven particle sizes of the contents. This not only affects the body's absorption efficiency but also easily leads to stratification of the capsule contents. During the pelleting process, the temperature difference between the contents and the capsule shell liquid is not controlled, and the thickness of the capsule shell is not precisely controlled, which can easily lead to problems such as capsule leakage and breakage. The drying process mostly uses single-temperature drying without gradient shaping drying, resulting in easy cracking of the capsule shell, uneven moisture distribution, poor capsule morphological stability, and easy deterioration during storage. In addition, the parameters of each process step lack clear standards, resulting in poor repeatability and making it difficult to ensure the uniformity between product batches.

[0005] Meanwhile, most existing related products are in powder, decoction, or hard capsule form. Powder is prone to absorbing moisture and is not easy to carry. Decoction is complicated to prepare and has a short shelf life. Hard capsules cannot mask the unpleasant flavors of prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum and have a poor taste. Some capsules have unreasonable specifications, are inconvenient to swallow, and have unclear recommended dosages, resulting in low consumer compliance. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule that enhances immunity and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems of insufficient retention of active ingredients, poor synergistic effects and low stability in existing immune-regulating health foods.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] According to a first aspect of this disclosure, a prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule for enhancing immunity is provided, comprising contents and a capsule shell encapsulating the contents;

[0009] The contents, by weight, include the following components: 55-65 parts of prickly pear juice concentrate powder, 55-65 parts of Ganoderma lucidum extract, 350-380 parts of camellia seed oil, and 12-18 parts of beeswax.

[0010] The capsule shell comprises, by weight, the following components: 115-125 parts gelatin, 115-125 parts purified water, 2.5-3.5 parts caramel color, 0.2-0.4 parts titanium dioxide, and 0.015-0.025 parts brown iron oxide.

[0011] The prickly pear juice concentrate is prepared by fermentation with Lactobacillus brucellosis and low-temperature process, and the Ganoderma lucidum extract contains ≥20% Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide and ≥5% triterpenoids.

[0012] Furthermore, the weight ratio of prickly pear juice concentrate to Ganoderma lucidum extract in the contents is 1:(0.9-1.1).

[0013] Furthermore, the acid value of the camellia seed oil is ≤1.0mg / g, and the melting point of the beeswax is 62-67℃.

[0014] Furthermore, the contents are a uniform suspension with a particle size in the range of 10-20 μm.

[0015] According to the second aspect of this disclosure, a method for preparing a prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule to enhance immunity is also provided, which is applied to the prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule of the first aspect, comprising the following steps:

[0016] S1. Heat the camellia seed oil to 60±5℃, add beeswax and stir until completely melted to obtain an oil phase matrix; add prickly pear juice concentrate and Ganoderma lucidum extract to the oil phase matrix, stir and mix, then grind and homogenize to obtain a uniform mixture of contents, and keep warm at 50±5℃.

[0017] S2. Dissolve gelatin and purified water at 70±5℃, add caramel color, titanium dioxide and brown iron oxide, stir evenly, degas under vacuum to obtain capsule shell solution, and keep warm at 60±5℃.

[0018] S3. The insulated contents mixture and the capsule shell liquid are compressed into capsules using a soft capsule compression machine. During the compression process, the temperature of the contents mixture is controlled at 50±5℃, the temperature of the capsule shell liquid is controlled at 60±5℃, and the temperature difference between the two is 5-10℃.

[0019] S4. Dry the soft capsules after they have been compressed into pellets until the moisture content of the capsule shell is ≤12%, and the prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsules are obtained.

[0020] Furthermore, in step S1, the grinding and homogenization is carried out by grinding 2-3 times at 50-60°C using a colloid mill.

[0021] Furthermore, in step S2, the vacuum conditions are a vacuum degree of 0.06-0.08 MPa, a degassing temperature of 65±5℃, and a degassing time of 15-20 minutes.

[0022] Furthermore, in step S2, during the preparation of the capsule shell adhesive solution, the stirring time after adding caramel color, titanium dioxide and brown iron oxide is 20 minutes, and the stirring speed is 200 r / min.

[0023] Furthermore, in step S3, the thickness of the capsule shell is controlled to be 0.18-0.22 mm during the shot forming process.

[0024] Further, in step S4, the segmented gradient drying includes:

[0025] The first stage of drying involves a temperature of 25±5℃, a relative humidity of ≤60%, and a drying time of 2-3 hours.

[0026] The second stage of drying involves a temperature of 35±5℃, a relative humidity of ≤50%, and a drying time of 4-6 hours.

[0027] The third stage of drying involves a temperature of 25±5℃, a relative humidity of ≤60%, and a drying time of 1-2 hours.

[0028] Compared with existing technologies, this invention provides an immune-enhancing prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsule and its preparation method. It utilizes a patented low-temperature process and Lactobacillus brucellosis fermentation to prepare prickly pear juice concentrate powder, which is then combined with high-quality Ganoderma lucidum extract in a precise 1:(0.9-1.1) ratio to form a core efficacy combination. The excipient system is optimized with camellia seed oil and beeswax. Simultaneously, it employs precise grinding with a colloid mill, temperature-controlled pelleting, and segmented gradient drying processes to standardize key parameters. This achieves synergistic effects between prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum components, significantly enhancing immunity and relieving fatigue. It effectively protects easily oxidized active ingredients, improves product stability, and accelerates the retention rate of efficacy components to ≥90% after 6 months of testing. The soft capsule dosage form masks unpleasant flavors and is convenient to take. The formula and process are precise, controllable, and highly reproducible, suitable for large-scale industrial production. Furthermore, the raw materials are safe and have no adverse reactions, making it both practical and economical. Attached Figure Description

[0073] (Note: The thymus index and weighted swimming time of mice are average values; the allowable error range for single-particle weight is ±5%, the allowable disintegration time is ≤30min, and the retention rate of active ingredients after 6 months is preferably ≥90%).

[0074] Results Analysis

[0075] 1. Analysis of the Influence of Component Ratio: Examples 1-3 all fall within the weight range of the components claimed in this invention, and the ratio of prickly pear juice concentrate to Ganoderma lucidum extract is 1:(0.9-1.1). All their test indicators are superior to those of Comparative Examples 1-2 (which deviate from this ratio range). Specifically, in Comparative Example 1, the excessive Ganoderma lucidum extract and insufficient prickly pear juice concentrate resulted in decreased vitamin C content, reduced antioxidant capacity, weakened synergistic effect, significantly reduced thymus index and weight-bearing swimming time in mice, and decreased stability. In Comparative Example 2, the excessive prickly pear juice concentrate and insufficient Ganoderma lucidum extract resulted in decreased Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide content, weakened immunomodulatory effect, and similarly affected synergistic effect and stability. This demonstrates that the core component ratio range and the ratio of the two components defined in this invention are crucial to ensuring product efficacy and stability.

[0076] 2. Analysis of the Influence of Process Parameters: Examples 1-3 all adopted the preparation process (grinding and homogenization, segmented gradient drying) defined in this invention, with the particle size of the contents controlled at 10-20 μm, achieving acceptable disintegration time and good stability. However, Comparative Example 3, without grinding and homogenization, had excessively large particle size and significant agglomeration, leading to a prolonged disintegration time, poor absorption of active ingredients, and a significant decrease in stability (a substantial reduction in the retention rate of active ingredients after 6 months, with capsule leakage and deformation). Comparative Example 4 used a single-temperature drying method, resulting in surface cracking of the capsule shell, decreased stability, and a prolonged disintegration time. This demonstrates that the process parameters defined in this invention, such as grinding and homogenization and segmented gradient drying, are crucial for ensuring product morphology, stability, and efficacy.

[0077] 3. Determination of Optimal Formulation: Comparing the test results of Examples 1-3, Example 2 (a mixture of 60 parts prickly pear juice concentrate, 60 parts Ganoderma lucidum extract, 365 parts camellia seed oil, 15 parts beeswax, 120 parts gelatin, 120 parts purified water, 3 parts caramel color, 0.3 parts titanium dioxide, and 0.02 parts brown iron oxide, combined with optimal process parameters) exhibits the best overall performance: optimal sensory characteristics, uniform particle size (12-15 μm), lowest capsule moisture content (10.5%), shortest disintegration time (22 min), smallest single-particle weight error (±3.2%), highest content of active ingredients (5.5 mg Vitamin C and 3.2 mg Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides per capsule), optimal immune regulation and anti-fatigue effects (45.6 mg / g thymus index in mice, 158 min of weight-bearing swimming time), and best stability (≥91% retention rate of active ingredients after 6 months, with intact and plump appearance). Therefore, the component ratio and process parameters of Example 2 represent the optimal implementation scheme of this invention.

[0078] in conclusion

[0079] This invention optimizes the ratio of core active ingredients, controlling the proportions of prickly pear juice concentrate and Ganoderma lucidum extract to 55-65 parts, with a ratio of 1:(0.9-1.1). Combined with suitable excipients and a precise preparation process, the resulting prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum soft capsules fully leverage the synergistic effects of prickly pear and Ganoderma lucidum, exhibiting clear effects in enhancing immunity and relieving physical fatigue. The product has uniform contents, intact capsule shell morphology, high stability, and convenient administration, with all indicators meeting relevant health food standards. The preparation process is precise, controllable, and highly repeatable, suitable for large-scale industrial production, and has broad market application prospects.

[0080] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
