The invention discloses a novel method for improving
solubility of
oleosin protein, and belongs to the technical field of food. The method disclosed by the invention comprises two steps of
oleosin protein extraction and
dissolution; the method comprises the following steps: mixing a
plant oil body with a non-polar
solvent with the volume 3-5 times that of the
plant oil body for 15-30 minutes, then centrifuging for 20-30 minutes under the condition of 7000-9000 rpm, adding
chloroform /
methanol / water (4: 2: 1) with the volume 3-5 times that of the
plant oil body into a precipitate, mixing for 10-30 minutes, centrifuging under the condition of 7000-9000 rpm, carrying out
nitrogen blowing on the precipitate for 10-30 minutes, freeze-
drying for 24-48 hours, adding an
ethanol solution with the concentration of 50%-95%, and freeze-
drying for 10-48 hours to obtain the plant oil. And mixing for 5 to 15 minutes to obtain an
oleosin protein solution. Compared with the prior art, the prepared oleosin
protein solution has the advantages that the use of ultrasonic
waves, microwaves,
urea and other denaturants is avoided, the spatial secondary structure of the protein is kept stable, and the
solubility is improved to 0.5 mg / mL to 0.7 mg / mL.
