Abstract

This invention discloses a magnetic adsorbent for separating proteins and pigments, its preparation method, and its application. First, ferrous and ferric salts are dissolved in a mixed solvent of water and alcohol, heated to 60–80°C, and an alkaline precipitant is added while stirring until a black precipitate is completely formed, yielding ferric oxide (Fe3O4). Next, the obtained ferric oxide is dispersed in an alcohol-water mixture, and ammonia and tetraethyl silicate are added. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2–5 hours to obtain silica-coated ferric oxide. Finally, ε-polylysine is dissolved in water, and the silica-coated ferric oxide is added. After ultrasonic dispersion, the mixture is stirred at 20–30°C for 10–24 hours. After washing and drying, an ε-polylysine-modified magnetic adsorbent is obtained. This invention is used for the purification of lentinan extract, specifically adsorbing proteins and pigments, and can be rapidly separated by an external magnetic field. It has the advantages of simple operation and high adsorption efficiency.
