METHOD FOR PREPARING PECTOINULIN OF ARTICHOKE TUBERS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A61K36/28 A61K31/715 B01D11/02 

FIELD: medicine, pharmaceutics.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to pharmaceutical industry, namely preparing pectoinulin of dried ground artichoke tubers (Helianthus tuberosus L.). A method for preparing pectoinulin of dried ground artichoke tubers (Helianthus tuberosus L.) by aqueous extraction of inulin with heating; further the extract is mixed, boiled off, cooled, added with 96% ethanol; the sediment is filtered, dried up to prepare an intermediate coarse fraction of inulin and water-soluble pectin; the raw materials produced by aqueous extraction are used to extract pectins by the enzymatic preparation Maxazim NNP K, filtered, boiled off, cooled, added with 96 % ethanol; the sediment is filtered, dried; the intermediate sediments of inulin and pectin are combined, powdered to produce pectoinulin.

EFFECT: method provides higher yield of pectin and improved physical and chemical properties, enhanced activity of the end product.
