Description

本発明は、ポリフェノールを含有する組成物を、活性炭を用いて精製する方法であり、また該精製方法により精製されたポリフェノール含有組成物に関する。   The present invention is a method for purifying a composition containing polyphenol using activated carbon, and also relates to a polyphenol-containing composition purified by the purification method.

カテキンに代表されるポリフェノール類は、近年健康機能素材として最も注目を集めている素材であり、種々の生理機能効果が開発されてきている(例えばコレステロール***促進に関する特許文献1参照)。
また、カテキン類や他のポリフェノール類自体を利用して、各種の植物抽出物を用い、飲食品の呈味改善や、劣化防止を図る手法も提案されてきている(呈味改善効果については、例えば特許文献2、3参照、劣化防止効果については例えば特許文献4〜7)。
このようにポリフェノール類は有用である反面、沈殿や着色など、飲食品の品質に大きく影響を与えかねない問題点を有している。
Polyphenols represented by catechin are materials that have attracted the most attention as health functional materials in recent years, and various physiological function effects have been developed (see, for example, Patent Document 1 regarding promotion of cholesterol excretion).
In addition, catechins and other polyphenols themselves are used to improve the taste of foods and beverages using various plant extracts and to prevent deterioration (for the taste improvement effect, For example, see Patent Documents 2 and 3, and Patent Documents 4 to 7 for the deterioration prevention effect.
Thus, polyphenols are useful, but have problems that may greatly affect the quality of food and drink such as precipitation and coloring.

ポリフェノール類の精製技術としては、例えばカテキン類を含水の有機溶媒中で、特定の活性炭で処理することを特徴とする技術が提案されているが(特許文献8参照)、必ずしも実効性のあるものともいえなかった。   As a technique for purifying polyphenols, for example, a technique characterized by treating catechins with specific activated carbon in an organic solvent containing water has been proposed (see Patent Document 8), but it is always effective. I couldn't say it.
