Title:	Collagen peptide having immune-enhancing activity from Cyanea nozakii and preparation method and uses thereof
Abstract:	A collagen peptide with immune-enhancing activity from Cyanea nozakii, and a preparation method thereof are provided. The collagen peptide contains 80-90 wt % of proteins and 10-20 wt % of sugars, and has an average molecular weight of 1,000-3,000 Dalton. Monosaccharide contained in the collagen peptide are mainly glucose, glycine accounts for 16% or above and the sum of proline and hydroxyproline accounts for 18% or above of amino acids contained therein. The collagen peptide is capable of being used for preparation of medicines, health products, and skincare cosmetics having immune-enhancing function.

Application Number:	12/993,819
Patent Claims:	1. A method for preparing extracts comprising collagen peptides from Cyanea nozakii, comprising: (1) immersing Cyanea nozakii into water; (2) performing melting treatment on the immersed Cyanea nozakii with a melting agent selected from the group consisting of a base, an acid, a proteinase and a mixture thereof, and then centrifuging, to obtain a colorless or faint yellow supernatant; and (3) directly drying the supernatant, or homogenizing the supernatant, decolorizing, desalting and then drying, to obtain the extracts comprising collagen peptides as a white or faint yellow powder, wherein the extracts comprise 80-90% of proteins and 10-20% of sugars, wherein an average molecular weight of collagen peptides is 1,000-3,000 dalton, and the extracts are non-toxic with immune-enhancing activity, and wherein the sugar component comprises glucose, and the amino acids contained in the collagen peptides have glycine at least 16% and a sum of proline and hydroxyproline at least 18%. 2. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 1, wherein the Cyanea nozakii is immersed in water with a pH value adjusted to be in the range of 2-12 at a temperature in the range of 0-98.degree. C., till the conductivity of the immersion water is lower than 30 .mu.Scm.sup.-1. 3. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 1, wherein the melting treatment comprises melting the Cyanea nozakii with water by using the melting agent to form a liquid. 4. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 3, wherein the melting treatment is carried out at a pH value of 0.5-14.0, at a temperature of 10-120.degree. C. and an operation pressure of 0.0001-0.5 MPa. 5. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 1, wherein the base is a hydroxide or carbonate of sodium, potassium, calcium, or barium, or aqueous ammonia, and has a concentration of 0.1-10 molL.sup.-1; the acid is hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, malic acid, lactic acid or citric acid, and has a concentration of 1-10 molL.sup.-1; and the proteinase is one or more of pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, an acidic proteinase, a basic proteinase, a neutral proteinase, papain, bromelain, collagenase, and elastase. 6. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 1, wherein the drying is freeze drying or spray drying. 7. The method for preparing extracts from Cyanea nozakii according to claim 1, wherein the extracts are isolated from new finishing products of marine organisms of Family Cyanea including Cyanea nozaki Kishinouye, Cyanea capillata, Cyanea ferruginea Eschscholtz or Cyanea purpurea Kishinouyem, or three alum salted products thereof. 8. Extracts prepared from Cyanea nozakii according to the method of claim 1, wherein the extracts comprise collagen peptides with an average molecular weight being of 1,000-3,000 dalton and immune-enhancing activity. 9. A health product contains the extracts from Cyanea nozakii of claim 8. 10. A food, which contains extracts from Cyanea nozakii of claim 8.
