Method for preparing rapeseed oil by semi-solid aqueous enzymatic treatment
First Claim
1. A method for producing rapeseed oil by a semi-solid aqueous enzymatic process, comprising the steps of:
- 1) cleaning rapeseeds to remove debris, shriveled seeds, and impurities;
2) adjusting moisture content of the rapeseeds to 8-10 wt %;
3) pressing the rapeseeds obtained in step
2) to obtain rapeseed embryo flakes which are treated at 50°
C.-70°
C. to adjust the moisture content to be 3.5-4.5 wt %, and thus obtaining mature rapeseed flakes;
4) crushing the mature rapeseed flakes and sieving the crushed rapeseeds to obtain an oil-producing powder;
5) mixing the oil-producing powder and water at a mass ratio of 1;
1 to make a semi-solid rapeseed paste;
6) adding 0.5% to 2% (w/w) of total enzyme (pectinase;
cellulase;
alkaline protease=1;
1;
1, by weight) to the semi-solid rapeseed paste, and stirring and mixing at 40-60°
C. for 1-2 hr;
7) centrifuging the rapeseed paste of step
6) to separate crude oil from solid residues;
8) adding water to the crude oil at 0.2-0.4 L/kg oil, and centrifuging the oil-water mixture at 40-60°
C. to obtain a clear rapeseed oil; and
9) drying the clear rapeseed oil under vacuum to obtain final rapeseed oil product.

Abstract
The invention discloses a method for preparing rapeseed oil by a semi-solid aqueous enzymatic process, belonging to the field of functional foods and health care products. The present invention first prepares a semi-solid rapeseed paste with 3.5-4.5% moisture content, which is hydrolyzed by a mixture of pectinase, cellulase and alkaline protease to extract rapeseed oil. The resulting rapeseed oil contains high levels of active ingredients including totaxin, sterol, phenols and beta-carotene. The rapeseed oil of the invention can be added into animal feeds, which helps to reduce animal blood lipid levels and body weight. It can significantly reduce the contents of total triglyceride, total cholesterol and LDC-C in the blood, and, at the same time, increases the level of HDL-C in the blood. In addition, the rapeseed oil prepared by the present invention can relieve hepatic steatosis in hyperlipemia rats.
