< Topic > This invention being the manner which produces the active material with the autolysis capacity which it possesses in intestinal itself of namako, as containment the original nutrition component as much as possible, decreases the contamination to environment. Process of process treatment being rational, was simple, the product where cost was low, processed to be easy to environment is something which is not contamination.Solutions It is production manner of the active material due to the autolysis of the intestine of namako, the homogenate after doing the intestine of namako, it irradiates with the ultraviolet ray and makes induce, oneself it digests under specified conditions with the operation of the endogenous enzyme, passing centrifugal treatment, freeze concentration, Sephadex G15 separation and frozen dehydration concerning the mixed liquid of autolysis, it produces the active material. It possesses the flavor where the active material by the autolysis of the intestine of namako, with the light yellow solid-state powder, is odorless, is specific to the intestine of namako, is easy to dissolve in water, hygroscopicity possesses, fixed in vitro anti- oxidation talent possesses, as a functional material for the production of the many functional food it is used.【課題】本発明は、ナマコの腸自身に具備する自己消化能力により活物質を製造する方法であって、本来の栄養成分をできるだけ保持するとともに、環境への汚染を減少する。加工処理のプロセスは合理的で、簡単であり、コストが低く、加工した製品は環境にやさしく汚染がないものである。【解決手段】ナマコの腸の自己消化による活物質の製造方法であり、ナマコの腸をホモジネートした後、紫外線で照射して誘導させ、所定の条件で内因性酵素の作用により自己消化し、自己消化の混合液について、遠心処理、凍結濃縮、Sephadex G-15分離、凍結乾燥を経て活物質を製造する。ナマコの腸の自己消化による活物質は、淡黄色固体粉末で、無臭であり、ナマコの腸に特有の風味を有し、水に溶解し易く、吸湿性を有し、一定の生体外の抗酸化能を有し、機能材料として多種の機能的食品の製造に用いられる。
