Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of detection of the spiciness of hot pot base materials, and particularly relates to a capsaicin extraction device for hot pot base materials. Background Art
[0002] Spiciness is a quantitative value representing the intensity of spiciness. The substances that produce spiciness in chili fruits are mainly vanillylamide alkaloid substances. Among them, the contents of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin account for about 90% of the total amount of capsaicinoid substances, which are the main components affecting spiciness. Therefore, the total amount of capsaicinoid substances in a sample is calculated by dividing the sum of the capsaicin content and the dihydrocapsaicin content by 0.9. Converting the capsaicin content to the Scoville index, the Scoville index can be converted into spiciness.
[0003] At present, the national standard for detection is "GB / T 21266-2007 Determination of capsaicinoid substances and expression method of spiciness in chili and chili products". In this method, capsaicin is detected and quantified by a liquid chromatography ultraviolet detector, and it has a good separation effect for single-component chili. However, the hot pot base material contains a variety of spice oils and fats and is complex in composition. The standard uses a mixed solvent for extraction and concentration, and cannot remove interfering components. Therefore, the target components will be interfered during instrument detection, affecting the accuracy of measurement. In order to improve the measurement accuracy, it is necessary to extract pure capsaicin from the hot pot base material for spiciness detection. In the prior art, there are mature technologies for extracting capsaicin from a mixture of methanol or ethanol solution and capsaicin, but there is no convenient and easy-to-use extraction device for extracting capsaicin from hot pot base material into methanol or ethanol solution. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a capsaicin extraction device to solve the problems put forward in the above background art.
[0005] A capsaicin extraction device is used to extract capsaicin from hot pot base materials for spiciness detection. The capsaicin extraction device includes a heating beaker, a multi-way connector, a diversion tube, and a collector. The upper part of the heating beaker is connected to the multi-way connector. The multi-way connector is connected to one or more diversion tubes. A water molecule permeable membrane is installed at the end of the diversion tube. The collector is installed at the lower end of the diversion tube, and a methanol solution or an ethanol solution is contained in the collector.
[0006] Further, the multi-way connector is a four-way connector, and the corresponding diversion tubes are four, or the multi-way connector is a three-way connector, and the corresponding diversion tubes are three.
[0007] Further, the shape of the diversion tube is "V" shaped, and the collector is installed at the bottom of the "V" shape.
[0008] Further, a discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the diversion tube for connecting with the collector.
[0009] Further, a horizontal pipe section is provided at the part where the diversion pipe is connected to the multi-way connector.
[0010] Further, the multi-way connector is a hollow cube. An air outlet interface is provided on the side of the multi-way connector for connecting to the diversion pipe; an air inlet interface is provided at the bottom of the multi-way connector for connecting to the heating beaker package.
[0011] Further, the heating beaker includes a spherical cavity and a straight pipe section; the spherical cavity is arranged at the lower part of the straight pipe section, and the upper part of the straight pipe section is connected to the air inlet interface of the multi-way connector.
[0012] Further, the central angle of the V-shaped of the diversion pipe is 120°.
[0013] Further, the multi-way connector is threadedly connected to the diversion pipe.
[0014] Further, the water molecule permeable membrane is detachable.
[0015] Further, both the heating beaker and the collector are made of transparent glass.
[0016] The capsaicin extraction method of the capsaicin extraction device for detecting the spiciness of hot pot base materials is as follows:
[0017] Place the hot pot base material to be detected in the heating beaker for heating until the hot pot base material boils, and maintain the boiling state of the hot pot base material to facilitate the boiling and evaporation of capsaicin in the hot pot base material; the boiling mixed steam flows through the multi-way connector into multiple diversion pipes respectively. The water molecules in the mixed steam escape through the water molecule permeable membrane, and the capsaicin steam is cooled and adhered in the V-shaped gas pipe and finally flows into the collector and dissolves in the methanol solution in the collector. The separation of capsaicin from methanol solution or ethanol solution is the prior art and will not be described here.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the capsaicin in the hot pot base material is collected in the methanol solution, which facilitates the further extraction of capsaicin, lays a foundation for accurately measuring the spiciness of the hot pot base material, is an important link in spiciness measurement, and improves the efficiency of capsaicin collection.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are: after the capsaicin extraction device of the present utility model extracts capsaicin, the capsaicin is collected in the methanol solution, which facilitates the further extraction of capsaicin.
