The invention discloses a light-stable modified
curdlan antioxidant as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
biomass materials. According to the method, the problems of steric hindrance and water
solubility of physical characteristics-reaction of carboxymethyl
curdlan are considered, and the modified product is prepared by adopting EDC / DMAP
esterification reaction. In the modification process of the method, carboxyl of carboxymethyl
curdlan is reserved to a great extent, EGCG
succinylation is carried out firstly, and then reaction with remaining hydroxyl of the carboxymethyl curdlan is carried out, so that the EGCG modified curdlan
antioxidant Na-CMCUD-EGCG is prepared. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the
grafting rate of the EGCG is favorably improved, the
grafting rate reaches 70-150mg EGCG / g Na-CMCUD-EGCG, and the water
solubility of the product is also favorably improved; and the obtained product has relatively strong
antioxidant activity and light stability, and can be applied to the fields of
food industry,
medicine industry and daily use chemicals.
