Okra, a nutritious vegetable, has gained popularity in recent years due to its unique taste and health benefits. Okra polysaccharide is an important active ingredient in okra, which has a variety of biological activities such as anti-cancer, hypoglycemia, and immunity enhancement. Therefore, the extraction and isolation of okra polysaccharides has become an important research direction. This article will introduce a device for extracting okra polysaccharides using the hot soak method, and its working principle and advantages.
Polysaccharides are extracted by hot soaking method.
Beijing Shunfu Technology Group focuses on the research and development of various extraction equipment, with its own 60,000 square meters of factory buildings and R&D bases, high-tech enterprises, which can carry out non-standard customization of extraction equipment and EPC general contracting of traditional Chinese medicine extraction production lines according to the needs of enterprises. The plant extraction production line can extract polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, anthocyanins, saponins, polyphenols, capsaicin, chlorogenic acid, essential oils and other finished products.
1. Okra polysaccharide extraction and separation equipment.
The okra polysaccharide extraction and separation equipment mainly includes heating device, extraction device, filtration device and separation device. Here's how the device works:
Okra polysaccharide extraction and separation equipment.
1.Heating device: Through electric heating or steam heating, the okra raw material is heated to a certain temperature to release okra polysaccharides.
2.Extraction device: Put the heated okra raw material into the extraction device, and add an appropriate amount of water and enzymes to promote the dissolution and release of polysaccharides.
3.Filtration device: The extract is filtered to remove the residue to obtain a filtrate containing polysaccharides.
4.Separation device: Centrifugal or membrane separation technology is used to separate the polysaccharides in the filtrate from other components to obtain okra polysaccharides with high purity.

2. Extract polysaccharides by hot soaking method.
The hot soak method is a commonly used method for extracting plant active ingredients. In the hot soak method, the plant material is heated to a certain temperature so that the active ingredients in it are fully dissolved in the solvent. The active ingredient is then separated from the solvent by filtration and separation. Compared with other extraction methods, the hot soak method has the advantages of easy operation, high extraction efficiency and low cost.
When extracting okra polysaccharides, the hot dipping method can effectively extract the polysaccharides from okra. First, the polysaccharides in okra are fully dissolved in water by heating. Then, through filtration and separation, the polysaccharides are separated from other components to obtain okra polysaccharides with high purity.
III. Conclusion. As a natural product with a variety of biological activities, the extraction and isolation of okra polysaccharides are of great significance for the development of new drugs and functional foods. The okra polysaccharide extraction and separation equipment introduced in this paper uses the hot soak method to extract polysaccharides, which has the advantages of simple operation, high extraction efficiency and low cost. The equipment can realize the efficient extraction and separation of okra polysaccharides, which provides strong support for further research on the biological activity of okra polysaccharides. In the future, with the continuous progress of technology and the expansion of application fields, okra polysaccharides are expected to become an important bioactive substance and make greater contributions to human health.
