Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of skincare technology, and in particular to an extraction process for a product rich in silkworm peptides and a repair mask composition. Background Technology
[0002] Silkworm larvae (also known as Bombyx mori or Bombyx mori Linnaeus) are a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine for relieving wind and spasms. They are the dried bodies of the 4th-5th instar larvae of the silkworm (Bombyx mori Linnaeus), which die after natural infection or artificial inoculation with Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuillant. Modern research shows that silkworm larvae are rich in protein components, ranging from 29.74% to 64.73%. Among these, polypeptide active ingredients are the core substances responsible for their anti-inflammatory, soothing, skin barrier repair, redness reduction, and antioxidant effects. They are well-suited as a core component in sensitive skin repair and post-medical aesthetic treatment soothing and repair masks, demonstrating significant application potential.
[0003] However, traditional peptide extraction processes have significant limitations: high-temperature extraction directly destroys the spatial structure of peptides, leading to the inactivation of core active ingredients and loss of their original skincare efficacy; while organic solvent extraction can improve extraction efficiency, it is prone to leaving organic reagent residues, which can aggravate skin irritation when used as cosmetic raw materials, failing to meet the requirements of gentleness and low allergenicity for sensitive skin products, thus restricting the large-scale application of silkworm peptides in the skincare field. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an extraction process and a repair mask composition rich in silkworm peptides, so as to solve the defects of existing silkworm peptide extraction processes, such as low peptide yield, large activity loss, and solvent residue in the final product, which makes it difficult to meet the requirements of skin care products for gentleness and low allergenicity.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an extraction process rich in silkworm peptides, comprising the following steps: S1. The silkworm powder was degreased by supercritical CO2 extraction to obtain degreased silkworm powder; S2. Mix defatted silkworm powder, eutectic solvent, and antioxidant, and then perform cell wall disruption treatment to obtain a cell wall disruption suspension. S3. Add the complex enzyme to the cell wall disruption suspension and perform enzymatic hydrolysis, enzyme inactivation, and centrifugation sequentially to obtain the supernatant; the complex enzyme includes papain, bromelain, and neutral protease. S4. After filtering the supernatant once through a 30kDa filter membrane, collect the filtrate and then filter it a second time through a 10kDa filter membrane to obtain the silkworm polypeptide extract.
[0006] In this invention, the supercritical CO2 extraction temperature in step S1 is preferably 30-40℃, more preferably 32-38℃, and even more preferably 34-36℃; the pressure is preferably 20-25 MPa, more preferably 21-24 MPa, and even more preferably 22-23 MPa; the time is preferably 1.5-2 h; and the CO2 flow rate is preferably 20-25 L / h, more preferably 21-24 L / h, and even more preferably 22-23 L / h. Within this parameter range, the CO2 fluid has optimal solubility for oils, and the moderate flow rate ensures thorough degreasing while avoiding fluidization loss of the silkworm powder. After degreasing, vacuum separation is performed to obtain degreased silkworm powder free of oil and solvent residue.
[0007] In this invention, the silkworm powder has a mesh size of 200-300 mesh, and the preparation process includes: washing the silkworms and drying them until the moisture content is ≤6%, then pulverizing them through a 200-300 mesh sieve to obtain silkworm powder.
[0008] In this invention, the mass ratio of defatted silkworm powder, eutectic solvent and antioxidant in S2 is preferably 1:10-15:0.05-0.1, more preferably 1:11-14:0.06-0.09, and even more preferably 1:12-13:0.07-0.08.

[0014] The present invention also provides a silkworm polypeptide extract obtained by the above-described extraction process rich in silkworm polypeptide.
[0015] The present invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned silkworm polypeptide extract in a repair mask.
[0016] The present invention also provides a repair mask composition, comprising, by weight (100%), 3%-6% of the above-mentioned silkworm polypeptide extract, 0.1%-0.5% of dipotassium glycyrrhizate, 0.05%-0.2% of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanol, 3%-8% of glycerin, 2%-5% of butylene glycol, 2%-5% of 1,3-propanediol, 0.1%-0.3% of sodium hyaluronate, 0.2%-0.4% of p-hydroxyacetophenone, 0.1%-0.2% of ethylhexylglycerin, and the remainder being water.
[0017] The present invention provides a repair mask composition, which, based on 100% by weight, preferably contains 4%-5% of the above-mentioned silkworm polypeptide extract, 0.2%-0.4% of dipotassium glycyrrhizate, 0.06%-0.08% of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanol, 4%-7% of glycerin, 3%-4% of butylene glycol, 3%-4% of 1,3-propanediol, 0.1%-0.2% of sodium hyaluronate, 0.2%-0.3% of p-hydroxyacetophenone, 0.1%-0.2% of ethylhexylglycerin, and the remainder is water.
[0018] The silkworm polypeptide extract prepared in this invention is the core ingredient in the repair mask composition. It has the advantages of high DPPH free radical scavenging rate and small molecule easy transdermal absorption. It can quickly penetrate the skin base, remove skin free radicals, reduce oxidative stress damage, and relieve skin redness, dryness and itching from the root. At the same time, it can help repair the damaged skin barrier, enhance skin resistance, and has no sensitizing macromolecules or solvent residues, making it gentle and non-irritating to fragile skin.
[0019] Dipotassium glycyrrhizate is a soothing and anti-inflammatory ingredient that can quickly inhibit skin inflammation and relieve capillary dilation. It specifically improves sensitive skin, redness, and burning. It works synergistically with silkworm peptides to reduce skin sensitization and enhance the overall soothing effect. The formula is gentle and non-irritating.
[0020] 4-Ter-butylcyclohexanol can quickly block the transmission of skin irritation signals, rapidly relieving discomfort such as dryness, itching, stinging, and redness. It is gentle and has no side effects. When combined with dipotassium glycyrrhizate, it achieves double soothing and redness reduction, making it suitable for highly sensitive skin and short-term repair after cosmetic procedures.
[0021] Glycerin, butylene glycol, and 1,3-propanediol are mild polyol moisturizers that are alcohol-free and non-irritating. They can form a breathable moisturizing film on the skin surface to relieve dryness in damaged skin and improve skin hydration and tolerance.
[0022] Sodium hyaluronate can form a water-locking film on the skin's surface, reducing moisture loss and filling the gaps between skin cells. It also helps repair the damaged skin barrier, improves the skin's ability to retain moisture and its elasticity. In synergy with polyol moisturizers, it achieves dual moisturizing on both the surface and deep layers, meeting the hydration and repair needs of dry and damaged skin.
[0023] p-Hydroxyacetophenone has both antibacterial and antioxidant properties, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold in the mask composition and extend the product's shelf life. Ethylhexylglycerin can further enhance the antibacterial effect of the preservative system, while also helping active ingredients penetrate the skin and improving the absorption efficiency of the mask's active ingredients.
[0024] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention provides an extraction process rich in silkworm pupae polypeptides, comprising the following steps: S1, defatting silkworm pupae powder using supercritical CO2 extraction to obtain defatted silkworm pupae powder; S2, mixing defatted silkworm pupae powder, a eutectic solvent, and an antioxidant, and performing cell wall disruption to obtain a cell wall disruption suspension; S3, adding a complex enzyme to the cell wall disruption suspension and sequentially performing enzymatic hydrolysis, enzyme inactivation, and centrifugation to obtain a supernatant; the complex enzyme includes papain, bromelain, and neutral protease; S4, filtering the supernatant once through a 30kDa filter membrane, collecting the filtrate, and then filtering it a second time through a 10kDa filter membrane to obtain the silkworm pupae polypeptide extract.
[0025] This invention uses supercritical CO2 extraction to degrease silkworm powder, breaking the barrier of oil on protein substrates and effectively overcoming the problems of deterioration and off-odor caused by oil oxidation in peptide products. At the same time, the low temperature does not damage the spatial active structure of proteins and peptides, and there are no organic reagent residues, ensuring the safety of the extract in cosmetics.
[0026] This invention utilizes a combination of papain, bromelain, and neutral protease, whose action sites are complementary, to directionally hydrolyze large protein molecules into small-molecule repair peptides that are easily absorbed by the skin. Combined with intermittent ultrasound assistance to enhance the contact mass transfer efficiency between the enzyme and the substrate, the proportion of small-molecule active peptides is significantly increased, thereby improving the activity retention rate.
[0027] This invention first uses a 30kDa filter membrane for coarse filtration, which efficiently traps and removes allergenic macromolecular foreign proteins from silkworm pupae, reducing the risk of skin redness and sensitization. Then, it uses a 10kDa filter membrane for secondary fine filtration, which further removes small and medium-sized ineffective impurities and precisely enriches small-molecule silkworm pupae polypeptides that are suitable for skin absorption. These polypeptides can be directly added to the repair mask without additional detoxification or impurity removal treatment.
[0028] This invention provides an extraction process for silkworm peptides that is low-temperature, environmentally friendly, and simple. The process steps are simple and controllable, and the equipment is suitable for industrial mass production. The prepared silkworm peptide extract has excellent stability and does not separate, deteriorate, or precipitate when added to a mask system. When combined with soothing mask components, it can quickly exert anti-inflammatory, redness-reducing, and skin barrier-repairing effects, completely filling the technological gap in existing silkworm peptides that cannot be adapted to sensitive skin cosmetics.
[0029] The silkworm polypeptide extract prepared in this invention is applied to the repair mask composition. There is no organic solvent residue or irritating substance introduced throughout the process. It is gentle on the skin and has no risk of causing allergies. It can be safely used on sensitive skin and skin damaged after medical aesthetic procedures. At the same time, the extract polypeptide activity is fully preserved and has high biological activity. It can quickly penetrate the skin to exert anti-inflammatory, redness-reducing, and barrier-repairing effects. It works synergistically with the soothing and moisturizing components in the mask. Under the premise of ensuring safety, it greatly improves the redness-reducing, repairing, and skin-stabilizing effects of the repair mask, achieving the dual advantages of gentle skin care and highly effective repair.

[0071] Test example: 154 patients aged 25-50 years with oily skin and redness or itching were randomly selected, including 77 men and 77 women. The patients were randomly divided into 7 groups of 22 each, further subdivided into 6 experimental groups and 1 control group. In the 6 experimental groups, patients applied the repair mask compositions described in Examples 1-6, respectively, evenly to both cheeks after cleansing in the morning and evening. Patients in the control group did not perform any treatment after cleansing in the morning and evening. All 7 groups used the mask for 28 days, recording the time it took for redness / itch to subside and taking the average. After 28 days, on the 29th day, the oil content of each group's skin surface was measured using a skin oil analyzer after cleansing in the morning, and the average was taken as the initial oil content. The skin moisture content was also measured using a skin moisture analyzer, and the average was taken as the initial moisture content. Eight hours after using the repair mask composition on the morning of the 29th day, the oil and moisture content of each group's skin surface were measured again, and the average was taken as the final oil and moisture content.
[0072] The rate of change in skin surface oil content before and after use was calculated, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0074] Table 2 Test Case Results
[0075] As shown in Table 2, the silkworm peptides extracted in this invention, when applied to the facial mask composition, exhibit significant anti-inflammatory, redness-reducing, moisturizing, and water-oil balance regulating effects. Redness / itching symptoms may subside in a short period, and the final skin moisture content is significantly increased compared to the initial value. The skin surface oil content is also significantly regulated, demonstrating that this facial mask composition is suitable for the repair needs of oily and sensitive skin, solving the problems of redness, dryness, itching, dehydration, and oil imbalance in this type of skin.
