The main components of rosemary extract are Ursolic acid, Rosmarinic Acid and Carnosic Acid. Several main components in rosemary extract have strong antioxidant activity. It has obvious effects in preventing oil oxidation and maintaining meat flavor.
The United States and Japan were the first countries to study rosemary antioxidants. Japan uses rosemary 95% acetic acid extract to prevent essence flavors from spoilage additives, and add natural carotenoids and other natural food colorants to prevent oxidation and fading.
After more than a decade of research on rosemary, China Academy of Sciences has not only completed the experiments of introduction and cultivation, but also achieved encouraging results in the extraction, isolation and structure identification of antioxidants, antioxidant efficiency experiments, production process and supercritical CO2 extraction technology, and the essence and aroma components of rosemary essential oil.
Salvianol, as an antioxidant and antimicrobial additive, has been widely used in food and pharmaceutical industry. Through long-term and short-term animal model studies, rosemary extract and its components have a potential inhibitory effect on the biological growth of inducing tumor. Rosmarinic acid has obvious antipyretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antithrombotic and fibrinolytic activities. This product is also expected to be developed into a new antithrombotic drug. It is expected to solve the oxidation problem of chilled pork.
