The present invention describes a reduction type coenzyme Q10 powder, a composition thereof, and a preparation method thereof. The reduction type coenzyme Q10 powder is obtained by reacting an oxidation type coenzyme Q10 with the presence of a reducing agent, removing an organic solvent and other purities from a reaction solution after the reaction is finished to obtain an oil-soluble reduction type coenzyme Q10 liquid, and then directly performing prill formation with cold wind on an obtained reduction type coenzyme Q10 greasy substance. The obtained reduction type coenzyme Q10 powder has a lower crystallinity, and in a Cu-K[alpha] X-ray diffraction spectrum, has a strong peak at a diffraction angle 2[theta] being 18.9 DEG, and has a very strong absorption peak at a diffraction angle 2[theta] being 22.8 DEG. The reduction type coenzyme Q10 powder obtained in the present invention is in an incompletely crystallized state, has desirable stability and desirable oral bioavailability, and is suitable for use in applications such as dietary supplements, cosmetics or pharmaceuticals.

Reduction type coenzyme Q10 powder, composition thereof, and preparation method thereof

The present invention provides a composition for improving macular pigment optical density and preventing or treating age-related macular optical degeneration. The composition comprises lutein, zeaxanthin and tea extracts, wherein the weight ratio of zeaxanthin to lutein is more than or equal to 1. The composition may prevent formation of choroidal neovascularization to achieve effects on comprehensively preventing or treating age-related macular optical degeneration (AMD).

The invention discloses a method for preparing high-content zeaxanthin. In the conventional preparation methods, some methods adopt certain toxic organic solvents; some methods require the multi-step crystallization process; and some methods are featured by long reaction time, high temperature and lower product yield, thus being not suitable for industrial production. The invention adopts lutein crystal or its fatty acid ester as the raw material and utilizes isomerization reaction to produce zeaxanthin, and is characterized in that a mixed catalyst consisting of an organic base catalyst and a cocatalyst is used in the isomerization reaction, wherein the cocatalyst is palladium carbon. The invention has the advantages of simple process route, low reaction temperature, short reaction time, good product purity and high yield, thus being suitable for industrial production, and no poisonous and harmful organic solvent residues in the product, thus being suitable for the use as a food additive or drug.

The invention makes public a method for preparing xanthophyll crystals with higher content of zeaxanthin from plant oleoresin. The current methods generally are to get quite pure crystal forms of xanthophyll or zeaxanthin, and they refer to several separation steps. The invention mixes the xanthophyll diester-containing plant oleoresins and food grade alcohol solvents to form smooth solution, and then soap-dissolve the solution under an alkaline environment; then replenish organic solvents and emulsifiers into the reaction solution and drop some alkali solution into the solution to make partial xanthophyll crystals be transformed to be zeaxanthin through epimerization reaction; after the reaction is finished, add the mixed solvents of alcohol solvent and water to separate out the crystals; use the method of centrifugation or filtration to get the crystals; wash the crystals several times with the mixed solution of deionized water and alcohols to remove the impurities among the crystals; recrystallize the gained crystals with absolute ethyl alcohol, and then dry the crystals to get the products. The invention can gain mixture of crystals that contain xanthophyll and zeaxanthin at one time in quite high collection rate.
