The dried calcium phytate was pulped with water at a ratio of 1 :( 3-3.5). If water paste calcium phytate can be directly hydrolyzed. The normal pressure hydrolysis needs to add the catalyst, the hydrolysis cycle is long, the inositol yield is low. Pressure hydrolysis can improve the yield and shorten the production cycle. After completion of the hydrolysis, the soluble phosphate and phosphoric acid salts can be removed by adding milk of lime to convert them to insoluble salts. Add milk of lime and neutralized to pH 8~9 can be filtered. Then 1.5% activated carbon was added and boiled for 15~20min to remove pigment and impurities. The decolorizing solution was crystallized at 32 ℃ to obtain crude myo-inositol. The crude product can be washed with distilled water to remove inorganic acid and inorganic salt. The more advanced method is to use anion and cation exchange resin to remove inorganic acid and inorganic salt, which avoids the loss of inositol caused by washing, and the product quality is better. The refined inositol can be dried at 60-70 ℃ to obtain the finished product.

Introduction | myo-inositol, also known as cyclohexanol, hexahydroxycyclohexane, cyclohexitol, Myo-myo-inositol, belonging to one of the B vitamins, there are 9 kinds of isomers due to the different orientation of the hydroxyl group relative to the ring plane, of which 7 are optically inactive and 2 are optically active (left and right). In nature, it exists in all biological tissues in free or combined form. It is a common component in animal and plant cells. It can be synthesized by digestive tract microorganisms and participates in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in the body. Animal body mainly exists in the form of phosphatidylinositol, brain, cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle is the most abundant; Plants mainly exist in the form of inositol phosphate, and can be associated with calcium, zinc, iron and the like are combined into insoluble compounds, which interfere with their digestion and absorption. Lack of inositol in the animal diet, hair removal occurs, affecting development. Inositol is related to calcium metabolism in cells, and its triphosphate derivatives can be released from lipid conjugates after cells are stimulated, act as second messengers, and mobilize intracellular calcium ions, regulation of many cell activities, such as secretion, metabolism, light transmission and cell division. |
Food Source | the largest food sources of inositol are organic whole grains, nuts, cantaloupe, citrus fruits, lima beans, currants and cabbage. Milk also contains some inositol. |
physiological function and function | inositol is a function of accelerating the metabolism of cells in the body and emulsifying fat, helps metabolize fat and cholesterol to avoid fatty liver. As people's material life is getting better and better, there are more and more people with fatty liver, so it is suggested that the problem of fatty liver can be improved by taking inositol. Inositol is an important and indispensable component of the human body, which can promote the metabolism of fat and cholesterol, and has a significant effect on improving hyperlipidemia, fatty liver and reducing serum lipids. Myo-inositol is good for eye protection and can prevent hair loss. |
application field | clinically, myo-inositol is used together with vitamin B complex to prevent or reduce excess fat deposition in the liver, promote fat metabolism in the liver, reduce blood lipids, eliminate the role of fatty infiltration of liver cells. It can be used to treat fatty liver, alcoholic liver, atherosclerosis, hypercholesteremia, diabetes, alopecia, hyperlipidemia, etc. Derivatives of inositol, such as phosphatidylinositol, are one of the components of cell membranes, and phytate (phytic acid) or calcium magnesium phytate (phytin) often accumulates in the seeds of higher plants. The inositol hexaphosphate extracted from rice bran or wheat bran can be used as antioxidant, stabilizer and preservative in food. Inositol can be widely used in medicine, chemical industry, food and so on. It has curative effect on liver ulcer and vascular sclerosis. It can also be used as raw material of advanced cosmetics and has high economic value. |
production method | enzymatic production of inositol, that is, the use of enzyme preparations (mainly phytase and phosphatase), conversion of phytic acid and its salts to inositol. Phytase is widely used in animal feed, phytic acid and its salt in plant feed can be degraded into inorganic phosphorus and inositol. obtained by hydrolysis and neutralization of phytin. The phytin and water were put into the high-pressure hydrolysis pan, and heated in a closed manner. The internal pressure gradually increased to about 0.5MPa, and the reaction was stirred for 8 hours. Check the pH of the material, 2.5-3.0 as the end point of the reaction. The hydrolysate was placed in a neutralization Pan and neutralized with milk of lime, the temperature was maintained at 70-80 °c, and the pH was controlled at 7-8. The filtrate is thrown off by a centrifuge, and the filter residue can be used as a fertilizer (as calcium phosphate). Heat the above neutralized filtrate to 80-90 ℃, add 0.5-0.7% activated carbon, stir constantly, and filter with sand core for about 20min. The filtered clear liquid is sucked into a concentrated Pan and concentrated at 90 ℃ for 4-5H, when the relative density of 1.24-1.28 can be discharged, into the enamel tank or stainless steel tank cooling. When there is crystallization, manually stir, cool to 20-25 ℃, and send it into centrifuge to spin dry to obtain yellow inositol crude product, The crude mother liquor can be poured out and the crystals can be concentrated again. Water or thread liquid is added to the crude product, heated and dissolved, activated carbon is added to decolorize, and then barium oxide solution and ammonium oxalate solution are added to precipitate and remove sulfate and calcium ions respectively. The filtrate was filtered while hot, cooled to 30 °c, crystallized, filtered (mother liquor was applied), the filter cake was washed with a small amount of ethanol, dried at 80 °c for 6h, and finally passed through a 18 mesh sieve to obtain inositol.

Filter, and wash the filter residue with water, the filter residue can be used as feed, combined filtrate and wash, with compressed air stirring, adding fresh milk of lime and neutralized to pH 6.8 or so. The neutralized solution was allowed to stand for 2H to fully precipitate calcium phytate. The supernatant was removed by suction and washed repeatedly with clean water until the washing solution was not pale yellow (neutral). So far, the lower white slurry is filtered with a filter press to obtain calcium phytate, namely phytin.

note | 1. Although inositol can effectively improve some problems in patients with polycystic, however, if you do not follow the doctor's advice in the process of taking the drug, or even buy it at will, resulting in excessive intake, it is likely to affect the calcium and phosphorus balance in the body, this leads to new problems. 2, taking inositol may cause uterine contraction, and may lead to abnormal bleeding in the uterus, so even in accordance with the doctor's advice, in the process of taking also pay attention to their own situation, if there are Abdominal Pain and other abnormalities, should be even with the doctor to communicate, the problem is more serious, should immediately stop. 3, some patients may be allergic after taking inositol, so if the patient has skin itching after taking the medicine, it should be considered whether it is allergic. Myo-inositol allergy in severe cases will appear Dyspnea, chest tightness and other conditions, so patients must not randomly buy take. |
