Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of bioengineering, in particular to a method for removing isoursodeoxycholic acid in duck bile.
Background
People have a long history on the research of the cholic acid compound, and the research on the cholic acid compound is also in depth continuously under the promotion of the rapid biochemical development. Chenodeoxycholic acid is one of the most used medicaments for treating gallstones in the world at present, is also a main raw material for synthesizing ursodeoxycholic acid, and under the condition that the market demand of the chenodeoxycholic acid and the ursodeoxycholic acid is rapidly increased continuously, in order to widen the source of the raw material, people begin to extract the chenodeoxycholic acid from duck bile which is low in cost and easy to obtain the raw material, so that more raw materials for preparing the ursodeoxycholic acid are obtained.
In the processing process, in order to improve the extraction purity of the chenodeoxycholic acid, various methods are adopted to remove the allopholic acid impurities in the duck bile, but the effect is not obvious. Years of research show that the duck bile also contains an impurity called isoursodeoxycholic acid, the content of the impurity is generally between 7 and 8 percent, the impurity is second to the content of other cholic acid impurities in the duck bile and is the impurity which is not easy to remove when the chenodeoxycholic acid is purified, and the conversion rate of the chenodeoxycholic acid to prepare the ursodeoxycholic acid is influenced.
In addition, the isoursodeoxycholic acid is an epimer of the ursodeoxycholic acid, and when biochemical analysis is carried out to detect the cholesterol metabolism index of a human body, the high-purity isoursodeoxycholic acid is required to be used as a standard substance, so the isoursodeoxycholic acid has important biological utilization value. Therefore, the removal of the isoursodeoxycholic acid from the chenodeoxycholic acid derived from the duck bile raw material is not only another important step for purifying the chenodeoxycholic acid, but also the isoursodeoxycholic acid obtained by the removal can be used for producing downstream products of the bile acid.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to separate the impurities of the ursodesoxycholic acid when extracting the chenodeoxycholic acid from the duck bile, the method utilizes the solubility difference of the chenodeoxycholic acid and the isoursodesoxycholic acid in a mixed solvent of esters, polyhydric alcohols and aliphatic hydrocarbon compounds with a specific ratio to crystallize and separate the isoursodesoxycholic acid, thereby realizing the refining extraction of the chenodeoxycholic acid.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a method for removing isoursodeoxycholic acid from duck bile is characterized by comprising the following process steps:
(1) preparing a chenodeoxycholic acid crude product: utilizing a duck bile raw material, and preparing a chenodeoxycholic acid crude product by a butyl acetate magnesium salt method, wherein the wet weight of the crude product is less than 0.6%, the content of allocholic acid is less than 1.0%, and the content of isoursodeoxycholic acid is more than 7%.
(2) Preparation of a crystalline liquid: adding ethyl acetate with 6 times of the crude product and less than 1% of water and glycol with 0.5 times of the crude product and 99.5% of purity into the chenodeoxycholic acid crude product prepared in the step (1), stirring and heating to boil, and keeping boiling for dissolving for 1 hour until the crude product is completely dissolved. Standing for 1 hour to separate out a lower-layer water phase, and adjusting the moisture of an upper-layer organic phase through a reaction kettle backflow water separator to enable the moisture content of the upper-layer organic phase to be less than 1.0%; concentrating the upper organic phase at normal pressure, and quantitatively recovering the added mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and ethylene glycol from the concentrated organic phase, wherein the recovery amount is half of the addition amount of the mixed solvent; after recovery, measuring and adjusting the water content of the organic phase to be below 1.0 percent again, and cooling to 29-30 ℃ for later use.

Glacial acetic acid is added to increase the solubility of bile acid, and aliphatic hydrocarbon compound 120# gasoline is added to absorb water and reduce the solubility of isoursodeoxycholic acid.
(3) And (3) crystallization: and (3) carrying out variable-frequency stirring on the crystalline liquid prepared in the step (2) through 12-15HZ, cooling to 23-25 ℃, continuously stirring for reacting for 10-12 hours, gradually changing the crystalline liquid from clear to turbid, and carrying out filter pressing through an embedded plate-and-frame filter press to obtain filter residue of the isoursodeoxycholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid crystalline liquid. Wherein the filter residue of the isoursodeoxycholic acid is light grey floccule, the wet weight of the filter residue is 29-31% and the purity of the filter residue is 89-91%.

1. at present, the theoretical research on how to remove the isoursodeoxycholic acid in a laboratory adopts a conventional resin column-loading method, and the method has the disadvantages of large solvent requirement dosage, long production period, frequent resin replacement, low production efficiency and unsuitability for industrial large-scale production. The extraction and separation method adopted by the invention replaces the resin column-loading method adopted in the theoretical research in the laboratory at present, so that the rapid transition from the laboratory research to the industrial large-scale production is realized for the new topic of extracting the isoursodeoxycholic acid from the duck bile.
2. The method can purify chenodeoxycholic acid in the duck bile, separate out the isoursodesoxycholic acid with pharmaceutical value and improve the utilization rate of bile acid resources to the maximum extent.
3. The isoursodeoxycholic acid separated by the method can be used for producing downstream products of bile acid, such as food additives and the like. Because the isoursodeoxycholic acid and the ursodeoxycholic acid are epimers, the isoursodeoxycholic acid can be directly converted into the ursodeoxycholic acid, and the raw material sources for processing and producing the ursodeoxycholic acid are effectively widened.
4. The sewage generated in the whole process is controllable, and the chemical oxygen demand can reach the discharge standard of the local environmental protection department.
5. The method of the invention has less leftovers, and can be recycled by extraction, thereby greatly reducing the loss of bile acid resources. Auxiliary materials used in the step of separating the isoursodeoxycholic acid, especially solvents are conventional chemical solvents, do not belong to the easily prepared toxic substances, and basically have no environmental hazard and safety risk.
6. The method has low requirements on related process conditions, but the pH value and the moisture standard are fine, and the method has controllability under the condition of complete functions of supporting facilities although the adjusting space is not large.
7. The crystallization process has obvious effect of removing the isoursodeoxycholic acid and has a certain effect of removing the allocholic acid with the content interval of less than 1.0 percent. The invention verifies that the allocholic acid and the chenodeoxycholic acid have certain solubility difference in a mixed solvent of esters, polyhydric alcohols and aliphatic hydrocarbon compounds in a specific ratio, and the allocholic acid can be removed in a certain ratio although the solubility difference is not as good as that of the isoursodeoxycholic acid. Therefore, when the isoursodeoxycholic acid is removed, impurities such as allocholic acid and the like can be removed to different degrees.
