BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE CARNOSINE-ANSERINE-CONTAINING COMPLEX AND METHOD FOR ITS PREPARING Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: biotechnology, biochemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to producing the biologically active complex eliciting antioxidant and immunomodulating activity and used in medicine, cosmetics, veterinary science and food industry. The biologically active complex preparing by enzymatic hydrolysis of muscle tissue represents complex of biologically active compounds involving carnosine and anserine in the amount 85-97 wt.-% of the native content of these components in poultry muscle tissue, 1-7 weight parts of amino acids, 0.5-12 weight parts of oligopeptides of molecular mass 10 kDa, not above, and 0.1-15 weight parts of cyclic and polycyclic phenolic compounds as measured for 1 weight part of carnosine and anserine in the complex. This complex is prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of milled and homogenized water muscle tissue in preferable dilution homogenate with water in the range 0.2-0.6 and with using proteolytic enzymes in the amount 2-5 wt.-% of the protein content and working at pH 4.5-8.5 and at enhanced temperature being preferably at 45-65°C. Product is isolated as extract or powder prepared in drying the extract. Invention provides enhancing effectiveness of the claimed complex.

EFFECT: improved method for preparing, valuable properties of complex.
