Description

Method for extracting limonin and nomilin
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of extraction, separation and purification of effective components in natural plants, and particularly relates to a method for extracting limonin and nomilin.
Background
Limonin (Limonin) and Nomilin (Nomilin) are the major limonoids in citrus, which are secondary metabolites of triterpenes, found primarily in rutaceae and meliaceae plants, and are particularly high in citrus seeds. The limonin compounds in the tangerine seed mainly comprise limonin compounds aglycone and glucoside, wherein the aglycone substances mainly comprise limonin, nomilin, obacunone, iso-obacunone and the like, and the glucoside substances are generally D-ring opening and a glycosyl is added. Limonin, alternative name: phellodendron lactone and evodia fruit lactone, molecular formula C26H30O8470.53, pure white, bitter and crystalline; nomilin, formula C28H34O9Molecular weight 514.57, white powder, bitter taste.
With the determination of the structure of the limonin compounds and the clarification of the biological function of the limonin compounds, the development and the utilization of the limonin compounds in citrus fruits have wide market prospects. The prior knowledge of limonoids has been to remove the limonoids from citrus fruit to enhance the commercial value of citrus juice. Later researches find that the limonin compounds have important biological activity in the aspects of promoting cancer cell apoptosis, resisting bacteria, viruses, malaria, inflammation, insect antifeedant and the like. At present, the demand of people for limonin compounds is increasing day by day, and large-scale extraction and separation of limonin analogues and application research as functional food additives at home and abroad are started; and the limonin compounds can be predicted to have wider application prospects in the near future.
At present, the extraction and separation process of limonin compounds has the problems of large organic solvent consumption, low yield, low purity and high extraction cost. Chinese patent CN101531666A discloses a process for extracting limonin from pomelo kernel, which describes that an alcohol organic solvent is used as an extraction solvent, and limonin with purity of 92% and yield of 0.25% is obtained by chromatography and crystallization, and the yield and purity of limonin are both low, and the dosage of the organic solvent is large. Chinese patent CN101367823A discloses a method for separating limonin, evodiamine and rutaecarpine from fructus evodiae, which obtains limonin with a purity of 99% by organic solvent extraction, column chromatography and high-efficiency preparative liquid phase separation, and the extraction process has the problem of low yield, only 0.1%, and high cost, and is only suitable for experimental preparation at present. Chinese patent CN102153615A discloses a method for extracting active ingredients from orange seeds, which adopts ultrafiltration treatment, and carries out affinity chromatography on filtrate, and beta-glucosaccharase, glucoamylase and alpha-amylase are subjected to enzymolysis, so as to obtain limonin with the yield of 0.62-0.65%, the purity of 98-100%, the yield of nomilin of 0.085-0.11% and the purity of 94-97%. The extraction method still has the defects of incomplete enzymolysis, high cost and difficult large-scale production of membrane treatment. Chinese patent CN103421077A discloses a method for separating and purifying limonin compounds from pomelo fruits, which adopts three steps of resin primary purification, high-speed countercurrent chromatography purification and semi-preparative liquid chromatography separation, adopts experimental-grade instruments, and is difficult to expand production.

The process of the invention is applicable to limonin and nomilin-containing feedstocks such as seeds of rutaceae and meliaceae plants, especially citrus plants (e.g., citrus kernels, citrus cores, etc.).

Further, degreasing treatment may be performed by a method conventional in the art, for example, degreasing with petroleum ether. To further enhance the degreasing effect, the raw material may be pulverized to 80-100 mesh.
Further, the wheat koji compound enzyme liquid is obtained by leaching brewing wheat koji, and preferably leaching by using physiological saline or Phosphate Buffer Solution (PBS). Raw wheat koji and cooked wheat koji commonly used in the brewing field can be adopted.
Further, the preparation method of the wheat koji compound enzyme liquid comprises the following steps: crushing the wheat starter to 80-100 meshes, adding physiological saline or phosphate buffer (pH value is 6.0-6.5) with the weight 2-3 times of that of the wheat starter, leaching for 8-12 h at the temperature of 4-6 ℃, and filtering to obtain the wheat starter complex enzyme solution.
The wheat starter complex enzyme liquid contains complex enzyme systems such as amylase, cellulase and protease, and is used for enzymolysis of starch, cellulose, protein and the like in the pretreated material, so that the dissolution of limonin compounds is promoted, and the structural damage to the limonin substances is less.
Further, the enzymolysis conditions of the wheat koji compound enzyme liquid are as follows: the pH value is 6.0-6.5; the temperature is 40-45 ℃. The enzymolysis time is generally 6-8 h. Proper amount of physiological saline or phosphate buffer solution can be added in the enzymolysis process.
The enzymolysis process is to carry out enzymolysis on corresponding substances such as cellulose, protease, starch and the like in the processed tangerine seed material by using complex enzyme systems such as amylase, cellulase, protease and the like contained in the wheat starter complex liquid under certain conditions, so that the dissolution of limonin compound glucoside is promoted. In addition, enzymes such as amylase, glycosidase and the like in the enzyme system can also hydrolyze limonin compound glucoside, promote the dropping of glycosyl in the structure and form the limonin compound.
Further, the concentration of the sodium salicylate solution is 1.5-1.7 mol/L, and preferably 1.6 mol/L.
Further, the weight ratio of the sodium salicylate solution to the dry weight of the enzymolysis backing material is 6-7: 1, and preferably 6.5: 1.

The sodium salicylate can combine with limonin substance to form soluble salt, thereby promoting the dissolution of limonin substance in the zymolysis substrate.
Further, adjusting the pH of the extract of the sodium salicylate solution to 4.6-5.0. Conventional pH regulators may be used, hydrochloric acid being preferred. After the pH is adjusted, the sodium salicylate is gradually changed into salicylic acid under the acidic condition, the solubility of the sodium salicylate is reduced, the sodium salicylate is separated out from the extraction solution and is removed by centrifugation, so that the macroporous resin adsorption in the subsequent steps is facilitated. The invention also researches and discovers that if the pH value is too low, the yield of the limonin substances is reduced.
Further, XAD-6 type macroporous resins are preferably used.
Further, eluting with 25-30% ethanol solution to remove impurities.
Further, eluting with 85-90% ethanol solution, and collecting eluate.
The low-concentration ethanol (with the concentration of 25-30%) is used for eluting, so that impurities adsorbed by the resin are washed away, and the subsequent crystallization and purification operations are facilitated. The research of the invention finds that the low-concentration ethanol eluent has higher impurity content and almost has no limonin compounds; the high concentration eluent has high limonin substance content.
Further, the dichloromethane and isopropanol mixed solution is composed of dichloromethane and isopropanol according to a volume ratio of 1: 1.8. Further, the weight ratio of the dichloromethane and isopropanol mixed solution to the dry weight of the extract A is 11-12: 1.
