AI Technical Summary
The current tobacco extract preparation process lacks scientific research on the compounding of Zimbabwean re-dried fragments, mulberry leaves and green tea stems, resulting in a single aroma style and insufficient complexity, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of modern cigarette products.
Zimbabwean tobacco extract was prepared by using a mixture of re-dried Zimbabwean tobacco fragments, mulberry leaves and green tea stems, pre-treating the mixture with citric acid and malic acid solutions, enzymatically hydrolyzing it with a complex enzyme preparation of pectinase, cellulase and β-glucosidase, and then performing gradient extraction and nitrogen-protected vacuum concentration.
It enhances the richness and sweetness of tobacco extract aroma, reduces the generation of burnt and bitter off-flavors, and improves the retention rate and storage stability of volatile aroma components. It is suitable for flavoring and adding ingredients to cigarettes and for the preparation of tobacco sheets.
