Abstract
[Problem] It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for collecting seawater that contains plankton and producing DHMBA, which is an antioxidant, from the plankton contained in the seawater. [Solution] The method of the present invention includes: filtering collected seawater containing the plankton using a filter; taking out a cell content from the plankton remaining on the filter; subsequently heating/pressurizing the cell content taken out; and producing 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from the heated/pressurized product. The plankton is a diatom.

A method for producing 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from plankton, the method comprising:
- filtering collected seawater containing the plankton using a filter;
- taking out a cell content from the plankton remained on the filter;
- and
- subsequently heating the cell content thus taken out to produce 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from the heated material,
- wherein the plankton is a diatom belonging to phylum Bacillariophyta, subphylum Bacillariophytina, class Bacillariophyceae, subclass Bacillariophycidae, order Surirellales, family Entomoneidaceae, genus Entomoneis.
A method for producing 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from plankton, the method comprising:
- filtering collected seawater containing the plankton using a filter;
- crushing the plankton remained on the filter with an addition of an extracting solution;
- and
- extracting a cell content from the plankton and subsequently performing heating or pressurization to produce 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from the heated material,
- wherein the plankton is a diatom belonging to phylum Bacillariophyta, subphylum Bacillariophytina, class Bacillariophyceae, subclass Bacillariophycidae, order Surirellales, family Entomoneidaceae, genus Entomoneis.
A method for producing 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from plankton, the method comprising:
- filtering collected seawater containing the plankton using a filter;
- taking out a cell content from the plankton remained on the filter;
- and
- subsequently pressurizing the cell content thus taken out to produce 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol from the pressurized material,
- wherein the plankton is a diatom belonging to phylum Bacillariophyta, subphylum Bacillariophytina, class Bacillariophyceae, subclass Bacillariophycidae, order Surirellales, family Entomoneidaceae, genus Entomoneis.
