PROCESS FOR MAKING MULTI-STEP FERMENTED EXTRACTS FROM PINE NEEDLES

摘要

PURPOSE: Provided is a process for making multi-step fermented extracts from pine needles. Therefore the prepared multi-step fermented extract contains a functional extract of pine needles and its fermented concentrate. CONSTITUTION: A process for making multi-step fermented extract comprises the steps of: mixing pine needles, saccharides and water them fermenting the mixture thereof; separating the fermentate from remaining pine needles; mixing the separated pine needles with other pine needles, then extracting the mixture thereof in hot water; concentrating the extract under reduced pressure; mixing the concentrate with the separated extract above, then fermenting the mixture thereof; and aging the fermentate under anaerobic condition.
