Abstract

The invention relates to the field of water-insoluble melanin development and utilization, in particular to a method for extracting water-insoluble melanin from animals, plants and microorganisms. The method includes the steps that firstly, dried, mildew-free and homogenized sunflower seed shells are selected and smashed, the smashed sunflower seed shells are mixed with 0.1-2.0 mol / L of NaOH according to the weight-to-volume ratio of 1:10-1:20, water bath is conducted on the mixture for 2.0-10.0 hours at the temperature of 40 DEG C to 80 DEG C, cooling and centrifuging are conducted, and a liquid melanin crude extract is obtained; the PH value is adjusted to range from 1.5 to 3.0, standing and sedimentation are conducted, and a melanin crude extract is obtained; impurities are removed through the steps of conducting boiling water bath hydrolysis for 2.0 hours to 6.0 hours in 5.0-7.0 mol / L of HCl, conducting repeated washing through an organic solvent, conducting re-dissolving and the like, then vacuum free-drying is conducted, and dried pure melanin powder is obtained. The water-insoluble melanin extracted through the method has the advantages of being high in purity, high in yield and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of melanin extraction, separation and processing, and is suitable for the production and processing of water-insoluble melanin from plant sources, microorganism sources and most animal sources, and is particularly suitable for the preparation method of water-insoluble melanin. Background technique [0002] Melanin is a general term for a family of phenolic or indole biomacromolecular pigments with complex and diverse structures. In nature, it widely exists in the biosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and interstellar space. In the biosphere, melanin is distributed in animals, higher plants and microorganisms, but it is not a black pigment, but also red, orange, yellow, green, blue and other colors of melanin. Since current techniques such as biochemistry and biophysics cannot provide a chemical structural formula for such biomacromolecules, there is no strict definition of melanin. Melanins are d...
