Abstract

We investigate the changes of fatty acids in blood for an evaluation of the effects of soft and enteric coated capsules containing omega 3 fatty acids. Fish oil, which contained 62.87 g/100 g of sum of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), was used as nutracueticals for omega 3 fatty acids. Lipid releasing amount in soft capsule was 70% in stomach condition. However, there was 10% of releasing amount of lipid observed in enteric coated capsule in stomach condition. In intestinal condition, 50% of lipid releasing amount in enteric coated capsule showed until 6 hr, but soft capsule until 90 min. EPA and DHA contents in soft capsule administration showed higher level than those in enteric coated capsule until 8 hr. However, the administration of enteric coated capsule showed higher level of EPA and DHA in blood after 8 hr. After 24 hr, mono-, poly-unsaturated and saturated fatty acids contents with enteric coated capsule showed higher level than those with soft capsule. The enteric coated capsule containing omega 3 fatty acids was expected to sustain omega 3 fatty acids.

본 연구에서는 혈액 내에서의 오메가-3 지방산의 함량 변화를 측정하여 연질 캡슐과 장용성 캡슐의 차이를 검토하였다. Fish oil 중의 EPA와 DHA의 총합의 함량이 62.87 g/100 g으로 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 연질 캡슐의 경우, 제 1시험액(위액)에서는 내부의 지방이 70% 용출된 반면, 장용성의 경우 10% 정도만이 용출되었다. 제 2액(소장액)에서도 6시간까지 50% 정도 용출되어 90분에 50%가 용출된 일반 연질 캡슐과 대조적이었다. 기존에 사용하였던 연질 캡슐의 EPA 및 DHA는 흡수 초기에 장용성 캡슐에 비하여 다소 높은 비율을 보인 반면, 8시간 이후 장용성 캡슐 섭취한 경우 EPA와 DHA의 혈액내 함량이 비율이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 경구 투여 48시간 후 지방산 조성은 장용성 캡슐에서는 mono-, poly-unsaturated fatty acid 혈액 내의 함량이 다소 높은 경향을 보였으며, saturated fatty acid 함량 역시 다소 높은 경향을 보였다. EPA와 DHA의 함량은 혈액 내에서 각 지방 분획에서의 함량 차이를 정확하게 측정하기 힘들었다. 이상의 결과에 의하면 장용성 캡슐은 위장관을 통과하여 장에서 용출되는 특성 때문에 지속적인 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 추정된다.
