Astaxanthin Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Astaxanthin is currently widely used as a functional pigment in aquaculture, food, cosmetics and other fields, mainly used as a feed additive for fish, shrimp, crabs and other crustaceans, as well as poultry, to improve the reproductive capacity and survival rate of livestock and poultry, fish, to improve health and optimize the color of the body meat quality. Natural astaxanthin has been used as a food additive for food coloring, preservation and nutritional enhancement. Studies have shown that astaxanthin helps to preserve the freshness of trout fillets.

In recent years, with the astaxanthin biological function research and pharmacological efficacy experiments continue to deepen, astaxanthin because of its cardiovascular disease, cancer, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, ophthalmological diseases, skin diseases and other diseases of the prevention and treatment of the effect and by the scientific community has been a great deal of attention, indicating that astaxanthin in the field of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and other areas of potential application of great value and broad prospects for development. It shows that astaxanthin has great potential application value and broad development prospect in the fields of medicine and health products.

Uses of Astaxanthin.

Natural astaxanthin, also known as astaxanthin, is an extremely valuable health raw material, which can be used to develop natural, healthy products for boosting immunity, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, eye and brain health, and regulating blood lipids.

It is mainly used as raw material for human advanced health food and medicine; feed additive for aquaculture (currently mainly salmon, trout and salmon) and poultry farming; and cosmetic additive.

It can significantly improve the immunity of human body, due to its ability to non-specific binding with skeletal muscle, can effectively remove free radicals generated by exercise in muscle cells, strengthen the oxygen-demanding metabolism, so it has a significant anti-fatigue effect.

Production process of Bulk Astaxanthin Powder.

1, the shrimp shells, cleaned and mechanically crushed to 5 mesh -10 mesh.

2, in the crushed shrimp shells and shrimp shells added to the weight ratio of 1:1-2 water, add protease enzyme digestion. According to different varieties of shrimp shells, enzymatic temperature of 30-70 ℃, PH value of 4-8, 2-6 hours, adding protease accounted for 0.4% of the total weight of shrimp shells - 1Chemicalbook%.

3, after the end of the enzyme digestion temperature to 70-100 ℃ inactivation of enzyme bacteria, and then cooled.

4, inactivate the enzyme bacteria after adding organic solvent extraction, organic solvent and shrimp shell weight ratio of 1:1-2, fully closed stirring 6-12 hours after cooling.

5, after the full reaction, separated into shrimp liquid and shrimp solid.

6, shrimp liquid for liquid separation, divided into hydrolyzed liquid and organic liquid.
