Abstract
This invention relates to a process for manufacturing a fraction of cacao bean husk having an inhibitory activity against glucosyltransferase in the prevention of tooth decay and more particularly, to the process for manufacturing a fraction of cacao bean husk having more potent activity against glucosyltransferase in the prevention of tooth decay, while providing an economically feasible recovery process designed to treat enormous wastes of cacao bean husk, wherein it comprises the steps in which: PA1 an extract of cacao bean husk, which has already proven to exhibit an excellent inhibitory activity against glucosyltransferase, is formed from cacao bean husk; and, PA1 the extract is again added to an adsorption resin and fractioned by 50% thanol aqueous solution.
