[Prior art] Lecithin is a typical phospholipid that is widely (distributed) in animals and plants.
Among them, egg yolk lecithin is widely used in food and pharmaceutical applications, but most commercially available egg yolk lecithin is in liquid or paste form, and these forms of egg yolk lecithin are difficult to measure accurately and have poor workability. Because of this drawback, a method of powdering has been desired. Methods for powdering egg yolk lecithin include a hydrogenation method (Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-28957) and a method using an excipient (Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-28957).
2-163661) etc. have been proposed.

The egg yolk lecithin used in the present invention needs to have a phosphatidylcholine purity of 85% or more, and egg yolk lecithin with a purity lower than 85% becomes a soft lump even when freeze-dried, and a uniform powder cannot be obtained. Purification methods for obtaining highly pure egg yolk lecithin are not particularly limited, but examples include column purification using a mixed solvent of lower alcohol and hexane (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-176597), purification using a membranous line (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-1999). Egg yolk lecithin purified by a known method such as 39594) can be used. In the present invention, there is no particular restriction on the upper limit of phosphatidylcholine purity, and the higher it is, the more preferable it is. still,
The purity of phosphatidylcholine is suitably measured by HPLC analysis.

Although it is possible to obtain powder with a concentration of less than 10%, it is not very practical because freeze-drying takes time and energy is consumed in freezing and sublimating water under reduced pressure. Such an aqueous egg yolk lecithin suspension can be obtained by mixing egg yolk lecithin and clear water and thoroughly homogenizing the mixture by stirring, shaking, or the like.
