BIOCHEMICAL PRODUCTION OF NATURAL ORGANIC GERMANIUM FROM SYNTHETIC ORGANIC GERMANIUM AND PRODUCTION OF GERMANIUM-CONTAINING HONEY BY SAID METHOD

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain honey similar to germanium-containing honey which is prepared by passing it through organism of bee, by dissolving beta-carboxyethyl germanium sesquioxide in an aqueous solution of sucrose and adding a honey enzyme to the solution. CONSTITUTION:beta-Carboxyethyl germanium sesquioxide shown by formula (GeCH2CH2COOH)2O3 is dissolved in an aqueous solution of sucrose. A honey enzyme such as invertase (beta-fructofuranosidase, alpha-glucosidase), diastase, glucose oxidase, etc., is added to the solution so that the organogermanium compound is converted into a structure similar to that obtained by passing it through organism of bee.
