The luteogenic strains are isolated and purified from bovine bile using the centrifuge, and then cultured in the culture medium, with the constant-temperature incubator serving as the culture environment. The strain cryopreservation unit is used to cryopreserve the cultured luteogenic strains, specifically using an incubator capable of maintaining a low temperature.

[0048] The cultured flavonoid strain is then fermented in primary fermentation module 2, and the fermentation products are processed. Primary fermentation module 2 includes a primary fermentation unit and a primary centrifugation unit connected in sequence. In one embodiment, the primary fermentation unit is a bio-thermal shaker or a stirred fermenter, and the primary centrifugation unit is a centrifuge. The product fermented in the bio-thermal shaker or stirred fermenter enters the centrifuge for high-speed centrifugation separation.

[0049] The bile pretreatment module 3 includes a sterilization unit and a bile cryopreservation unit connected in sequence. Fresh bovine bile is first introduced into the sterilization unit for sterilization, and the sterilized bovine bile is then introduced into the bile cryopreservation unit for storage, facilitating subsequent use. In one embodiment, the sterilization unit may include a high-temperature, high-pressure, moist heat sterilizer, and the bile cryopreservation unit may employ appropriate equipment with cryopreservation capabilities, such as a cryogenic storage tank.

Specifically, a multi-stage filtration unit can be used, with the pore size of the multi-stage filtration unit gradually decreasing.

[0050] The fermentation products and sterilized bile obtained from the primary fermentation module 2 need to enter the secondary fermentation and complex bilirubin calcium preparation module 4 for further fermentation.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the secondary fermentation and complex bilirubin calcium preparation module 4 includes a secondary fermentation unit, a heating unit, and a secondary centrifugation unit connected in sequence. The input end of the secondary fermentation unit is connected to the primary centrifugation unit and the bile cryopreservation unit, respectively.

Specifically, in the molding unit, powdered biomimetic bezoar can be combined with masterbatch and formed into wet pellets by a pelletizing machine. In one embodiment, the molding unit includes a pelletizing machine.

[0053] The formed wet pellets undergo further processing via a spraying module 7. This process involves first spraying a black coating onto the surface of the wet pellets using a spraying unit within the spraying module 7, and then feeding them into a second freeze-drying unit for freeze-drying to obtain the finished product. In one embodiment, the second freeze-drying unit can also be a freeze dryer.

[0054] To improve production efficiency, the corresponding modules and units need to be connected by a conveyor structure to facilitate the rapid transfer of products from the upper level to the lower level.

[0055] To improve production quality, the bodies of the bio-thermal shaker or stirred fermentation tank and the low-temperature bile storage tank in this embodiment are all made of non-metallic materials. Compared to tanks that are conventionally made of stainless steel, the tanks in this embodiment are made of non-metallic materials, thereby reducing the impact on the quality of the biomimetic bezoar product.

[0056] To facilitate spraying, the spraying unit is suspended directly above the conveyor belt for spraying wet shot on the conveyor belt below.

[0057] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
