Efficiency of enzyme preparations application in water extraction of phenolic compounds from green tea leaves

A study was conducted to obtain green tea extract using enzyme preparations of various substrate specificities. In the experiments, we used crushed green tea leaves of the Greenfield Flying Dragon variety with different degrees of grinding: coarse grinding, which included particles with a size of 56.4% passing through a Ø 1 mm sieve, and fine grinding, which included particles with a size of 100% passing through a Ø 1 mm sieve and 75% passing through a Ø 0.25 mm sieve. It was found that the yield of phenolic substances from coarse and fine grinding differs slightly but depends on the hydromodule. To obtain aqueous extracts of green tea with a high content of phenolic substances, it is recommended to use a hydro modulus of 1:20. To assess the effectiveness of enzyme preparations on the yield of phenolic substances, enzyme preparations of different substrate specificity were used: cellulolytic action – CelloLux-A, Viscoferm; proteolytic action – Vegazym M, Fructozym P6-L, Fructozym BE, Fructozym MA, Fructozym Press, Pectinex Ultro; proteolytic action – Protosubtilin G3x, Destizym Protocid Extra. The effectiveness of the enzyme preparation was assessed relative to the control sample (without adding the enzyme preparation) and expressed in %. As a result, it was found that of all the analyzed enzyme preparations, CelloLux-A has the greatest effect on the yield of phenolic substances and increases the yield of phenolic substances by 40–96%. To determine the optimal modes for the extraction of phenolic substances: temperature, duration, and dose of application of CelloLux-A, the method used a full factorial experiment (FFE 23) and the "steep" ascent method. As a result, a mode for obtaining green tea extract was determined that ensures the concentration of phenolic substances in the extract in the amount of 988 mg/dm3: temperature 60°C, duration – 1 hour, dose of CelloLux-A – 0.09% by weight of green tea leaves. Green tea leaf extract can be used by many sectors of the food industry as a source of biologically active substances in the production of functional foods and drinks.
