Preparation method of natural garlic ajoene
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of extraction and separation of traditional Chinese medicines, in particular to a preparation method of natural garlic ajoene.
Background
Garlic has been used as a herbal medicine and food for over two thousand years. Garlic has many pharmacological actions, such as sterilization, prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, prevention and treatment of tumors and cancers, and has been used as both medicine and food for thousands of years in folks.
Garlic is rich in Alliin (Alliin), which is mainly present in the garlic cytoplasm in a stable, odorless form. Alliin is a precursor of main functional components in garlic, and Alliinase (Alliinase) can rapidly decompose alliin into thiosulfinate under the conditions of cutting, smashing, chewing and the like, wherein the main compound is Allicin. Allicin and other thiosulfinates are very unstable at room temperature and decompose into the sulfide form, vinyldithiines, ajoenes, for several hours. Ajoene is the second degradation product of allicin, and can stably exist in oil-immersed garlic[1]。
Ajoene is a sulfide with high biological activity, and has physiological and pharmacological activities of preventing cardiovascular diseases, resisting oxidation, resisting thrombosis, lowering blood pressure, reducing incidence rate of senile dementia and cancer, resisting pathogenic bacteria (including drug-resistant bacteria), resisting virus, and improving immunity.
Chinese patent publication No. CN103525878A, entitled preparation method of a composition rich in ajoene, discloses the following technical scheme: alliin dissolved in buffer solution reacts under the catalysis of alliinase, and natural alliin extracted from garlic is converted into diallyl thiosulfinate to obtain reaction liquid containing the diallyl thiosulfinate; concentrating the reaction solution through a membrane, extracting and enriching diallyl thiosulfinate by using an organic solvent, and then recovering the solvent and extracting for multiple times to obtain the ajoene composition. The technical scheme uses a plurality of organic solvents, and the process is complex, so that the product yield is low.
So far, no method for preparing ajoene with purity of over 90 percent is reported, and no ajoene product with high content appears in the market. Therefore, the research on how to convert alliin in garlic into ajoene as much as possible and extract and separate ajoene has important significance for preparing high-purity ajoene.
