Introduction of raw materials
Aloe vera is a dried concentrate of SAP from the leaves of the monocotyledonous plant Aloe barbadensis Miller, Aloe ferox Miller, or other related plants of the same genus (e.g. Aloe maculatus).
Overview of aloin
Aloin is a natural organic compound, the English name is aloin or Barbaloin, also known as aloin, aloin, aloin, molecular formula C21H22O9. It crystallizes in ethanol as a yellow acicular crystal. Soluble in water, pyridine, soluble in glacial acetic acid, formic acid, acetone, methyl acetate and ethanol. It is a dried concentrate of SAP from the leaves of the monocotyledonous plant Aloe barbadensis Miller of the lily family, Aloe ferox Miller of the Cape of Good Hope, or other related plants of the same genus (e.g. Aloe maculatus). It has the physiological effects of catharsis, depigmentation, tyrosinase inhibition, free radical scavenging and antibacterial activity.
Production process flow
Aloe vera fresh leaves → cleaning, disinfection, removal of corners → beating → colloid grinding → centrifugal filtration → Storage tank → sterilization → raw juice → decolorization → microfiltration → ultrafiltration → reverse osmosis → Aloe polysaccharide solution → concentration
↓↑ ↓
Peels → Enzymatic hydrolysis → extraction of aloin solution → refining → aloin
Preservation of aloin
The content of aloin decreased rapidly at 80ºC and remained unchanged at 15ºC. Therefore, aloin should not be heated, and low temperature should be paid attention to when stored; The content of aloin decreases gradually under strong light irradiation and should be kept away from light. With the increase of PH, the stability of aloin decreased gradually. The relatively stable environment of aloin is: temperature 15ºC, light protection (solid) and PH=1 acidic environment (liquid).
