PRODUCTION OF FUNCTIONAL SALT BY HEATING ROASTED SEA SALT POWDER AND CHITOSAN TO COAT EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT OF CHITOSAN TO SURFACE OF SEA SALT WHEREBY REDUCING SALINITY OF SEA SALT AND PRODUCING FUNCTIONAL SALT HAVING EFFICACY OF CHITOSAN

摘要

PURPOSE: A method of making functional salt by heating roasted sea salt powder and chitosan to coat the effective ingredient of the chitosan to the surface of sea salt is provided. The product is reduced in the salinity of sea salt and has the efficacy of chitosan as well as immunostimulating action, anticancer action, antibacterial action, blood pressure lowering action or the like. CONSTITUTION: Sea salt is roasted at 400 to 1,200deg.C in a charcoal kiln and ground to 10 to 30meshes, 100% by weight of the ground sea salt is mixed with 3 to 10% by weight of chitosan and roasted at 200deg.C in a stainless steel vessel and then packed. The chitosan is selected from water-soluble chitosan or chitosan oligosaccharide.
