| Introduction | Gallic acid (GA) is a component of hydrolyzable tannin, also known as gallic acid, chemical name 3,4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid. The content of gallic acid in Yunnan Pu'er tea is relatively high, and it has many biological effects such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-mutation. |
| physiological activity | gallic acid itself has significant antioxidant effect, and also has many effects such as anti-tumor, trypanosomiasis, liver protection and anti-hepatitis B virus. Recent studies have pointed out that gallic acid may be one of the effective components of Pu 'er tea to inhibit cholesterol synthesis by HepG2 cell lines. On the whole, the content of gallic acid (9.01 mg/g) in Pu 'er tea is higher than that of other traditional Chinese medicinal materials. In this sense, gallic acid is one of the important physiological active components of Pu 'er tea. |
| uses | gallic acid has many uses in pharmacy, ink, dye, food, light industry and organic synthesis. Gallic acid and ferric ions form blue-black precipitate, which is the raw material of blue-black ink; it is also used in industry for leather making; it can also be used as a photographic developer. Propyl gallate is an antioxidant, which can be used for edible fats to prevent spoilage. In medicine, gallic acid is a hemostatic astringent and a mild local stimulant. It has antibacterial effect and can treat bacillary dysentery. It has astringent, hemostatic and antidiarrheal effects. Can be used as a preservative. It can prepare pyrogallic acid, drugs, inks, mordant dyes and anti-explosion agents. It is also used as a developer and an analytical reagent for detecting free inorganic acids, dihydroxyacetone, alkaloids and metals. It can be used as a preservative, can prepare mordant dyes and anti-explosion agents, etc. Used as a chemical reagent Mainly used as a color-forming agent for blue and black inks. The pharmaceutical industry is used to prepare sulfanilamide synergistic drug TMP and as a compounding agent for sulfanilamide drugs such as SMZ and SD. The food industry is used to prepare the preservative propyl gallate. The defense industry is used to prepare anti-explosion agents. In addition, it can also be used for the production of mordant dyes and as a developer, etc. used as a depolarization agent in electrochemical analysis; used for reducing phosphomolybdic acid; used for the verification of antimony, barium, bismuth, calcium, Cerium and copper, etc.; used for the determination of phosphorus, nitrite, silver, thorium and titanium, etc. A water-soluble phenolic acid that exists in the leaves of grapes and many plants and is an effective in vitro antioxidant. |
| production method | made from gallnut. The main component of gallnut is tannic acid, which belongs to hydrolyzed tannin, which can be dissolved in hot water and has astringent taste. It is an amorphous complex organic matter. Chinese gallnut tannic acid is a complex mixture formed by the combination of gallic acid, double acid and glucose in the form of glycosides or esters. Tannic acid is hydrolyzed under pressure to produce gallic acid and glucose. When hydrolyzing, gallate is first generated, and then gallic acid is hydrolyzed from bisgallate. The hydrolysis temperature is 133-135 ℃, and the pressure is 0.18-0.2MPa. From the pressure increase to 0.18MPa, the reaction is maintained for 2h to reach the end point. Compared with normal pressure hydrolysis, sulfuric acid and steam can be saved, and the production capacity can increase 25%. |
