The invention discloses a preparation method and application of
sea cucumber polysaccharide, and belongs to the field of food and
medicine. According to the method, the
sea cucumber intestines are used as raw materials, only the
sea cucumber intestines are simply washed in the pretreatment stage, on one hand,
polysaccharide loss caused by excessive treatment is avoided, on the other hand, a natural
grinding medium is provided for subsequent use of
bone paste grinding homogenate, and tissue breaking is facilitated; and then the sand grains and the
tissue homogenate are separated through standing. On the basis,
polysaccharide extraction is performed by fully utilizing the autolysis characteristic of sea cucumber intestines, and a NaCl solution with a specific concentration is key added in the autolysis stage to inhibit
polysaccharide degradation, so that the yield of total
sugar and sulfated polysaccharide is increased. Furthermore, a synergistic treatment process of
alkaline hydrolysis and enzymolysis is adopted, so that polysaccharide components in the sea cucumber intestines are fully released. Experiments show that the obtained polysaccharide can effectively relieve
immunosuppression and intestinal barrier injury caused by
cyclophosphamide, and the whole immune function of the body is recovered by adjusting intestinal
flora and metabolites thereof.
