Glucosyl licorice - Names and Identifiers
Glucosyl licorice - Physico-chemical Properties
| Physical and Chemical Properties | White to light yellow to yellow brown powder products, which are mostly lactose, maltodextrin, etc. as dispersing filler. The bitter, astringent and bad taste of this product is much lower than that of licorice, but the duration of the sweet taste is not reduced, and the acidic aqueous solution can form a gel, so as to avoid precipitation. Therefore, it is stable to acidity and heating under general food processing conditions. Soluble in water, soluble in 50% ethanol and pH value of more than 3 of the aqueous solution. |
Glucosyl licorice - Introduction
The enzyme-modified licorice extract is a product obtained by enzymatically treating a licorice extract. It has the following properties:
1. Biological activity enhancement: Enzyme modification makes the active ingredients in licorice extract easier to be absorbed and utilized by the human body, thereby enhancing its biological activity.
2. antioxidant enhancement: enzyme modified licorice extract has better antioxidant properties, can reduce free radical damage to cells, help to maintain human health.
3. solubility enhancement: enzyme modification can make licorice extract more soluble in water and organic solvents, making it easier to operate and apply in the preparation of drugs, health products and other fields.
Enzyme-modified licorice extract is widely used in medicine, health care products, food and other fields. Its main uses include:
1. Anti-inflammatory and antiasthmatic: The enzyme-modified licorice extract has anti-inflammatory effects and can be used to treat inflammation-related diseases and respiratory diseases such as asthma.
2. Anti-ulcer: Enzyme-modified licorice extract has anti-ulcer effect and can be used to treat gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer.
3. Anti-virus: Enzyme-modified licorice extract can inhibit the replication and spread of virus, and has potential application value for the treatment of viral infectious diseases.
The method for preparing an enzyme-modified licorice extract generally includes the following steps:
1. Preparation of licorice extract: The active ingredients of licorice are extracted by water or ethanol.
2. Enzymatic treatment: The licorice extract is reacted with a specific enzyme solution, generally under suitable pH and temperature conditions.
3. Reaction completion treatment: The enzyme reaction is completely stopped by heating the reaction solution, filtering out the enzyme body, etc.
4. Product extraction and purification: The target product is extracted from the reaction mixture through concentration and purification.
Enzyme-modified licorice extract is relatively safe under normal use, but the following safety information is still required:
1. Before use should read the product instructions, in accordance with the guidance of the dosage and method.
2. for pregnant women, children, the elderly and other special groups, please consult a doctor or professional advice before use.
3. for people with a history of allergy, allergy test is required before use.
4. in case of any discomfort or allergic reaction, please discontinue use immediately and consult your doctor for advice.
