In a specific embodiment of the present invention, when the dispersion method is used to disperse several kinds of hydrophobic plant extracts with different hydrophobicity, it is preferable to first arrange the several plant extracts according to the degree of hydrophobicity, and first arrange the degree of hydrophobicity. The highest one (the least soluble in water) is dispersed in the carrier, and then the one with the lower hydrophobicity is added and dispersed, and then the plant extract with the lowest hydrophobicity is added. Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, a first hydrophobic plant extract and a second hydrophobic plant extract are dispersed with the aforementioned carrier, wherein the first hydrophobic plant extract has a higher hydrophobicity than For the degree of hydrophobicity of the second hydrophobic plant extract, first disperse the first hydrophobic plant extract in the vehicle, and then continue to disperse the second hydrophobic plant extract in the vehicle. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the method for dispersing a hydrophobic plant extract includes the following steps: (a) dispersing the at least one hydrophobic plant extract in the polyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of about 8000 and the The polyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of about 3350 to form a dispersion composition; and (b) dispersing the dispersion composition in the polyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of about 400. In this embodiment, when the carrier contains PEG-8000, PEG-3350, and PEG-400, PEG-8000 and PEG-3350 are first used to form a homogeneous solution, such as heating PEG-8000 and PEG-3350. Until completely melted, the hydrophobic plant extract is added to form the dispersion composition, and the dispersion composition is then dispersed in PEG-400. In order to improve the dispersion effect, according to the method for dispersing a hydrophobic plant extract of the present invention, it is preferred that the at least one hydrophobic plant extract is dispersed in the carrier under heating. The heating temperature is preferably one that can completely melt the carrier and avoid deterioration of the active ingredients contained in the hydrophobic plant extract, for example, heating at a temperature of about 60 ° C to about 80 ° C. There are no restrictions, such as using a water bath, an oil bath, and the like. In order to improve the dispersion effect, the method for dispersing a hydrophobic plant extract according to the present invention further comprises homogenizing the extract, the carrier and the at least one hydrophobic plant extract. This homogenization step can be implemented independently, or simultaneously with the dispersing step, or combined with the dispersing and heating steps. Homogenization methods include, but are not limited to, stirring or ultrasonic vibration. For example, you can use an ultrasonic oscillator or a homogenizer (such as 15,000 rpm / min to 20,000 rpm / min) to homogenize the hydrophobic plant extract and the carrier, so that the carrier can evenly coat the hydrophobic plant extract. To form smaller particles for subsequent use. The ratio of the carrier to the hydrophobic plant extract according to the present invention is such that the carrier can coat the hydrophobic plant extract and the overall colloid composition can still have the desired effect. In one embodiment of the present invention, Wherein the weight ratio of the at least one hydrophobic plant extract and the carrier is about 1:10 to about 1:50. If the proportion of the carrier is too low, the hydrophobic plant extract may not be completely dispersed. On the other hand, if the proportion of the carrier is too high, it means that the active ingredient is greatly diluted, and the resulting colloidal composition has a large volume and is inconvenient to use. In order to expand the application of hydrophobic plant extracts, the carrier according to the present invention can simultaneously reconcile hydrophobic plant extracts and hydrophilic plant extracts in the same colloidal composition. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the The method of dispersing the hydrophobic plant extract further comprises dispersing the hydrophilic plant extract in the vehicle. The hydrophilic plant extract refers to a plant extract component that is soluble in water, including but not limited to a black currant extract. According to the method of the present invention, natural plant extracts of different polarities can be converted into a homogeneous aqueous solution. Polyethylene glycol of different molecular weight is used as a carrier to convert different polar hydrophobic components of the plant extract into a homogeneous aqueous solution. The particle size is about 250nm, and the small particle size is more conducive to absorption by the human body, and the particle size distribution is uniform. This method can make the hydrophobic plant extracts have good water solubility, which is conducive to the development of dosage forms and uses, and to enhance the hydrophobic plants. The extract is developed and applied in the field of health food and pharmaceuticals. This technology is convenient and innovative in the application of dosage forms. The present invention further provides a colloidal composition manufacturing method. The colloidal composition includes at least one hydrophobic plant extract and a carrier. The manufacturing method includes dispersing the at least one hydrophobic plant extract in the carrier by the above-mentioned dispersion method. The present invention also provides a colloidal composition comprising the aforementioned carrier and a hydrophobic plant extract. The present invention further provides a colloidal composition prepared by the above-mentioned manufacturing method. The carrier according to the present invention is used to disperse hydrophobic plant extracts. Although it is not intended to be limited by theory, it is believed that the carrier according to the present invention can coat the hydrophobic plant extract components to make the hydrophobic plant extract components. It is uniformly dispersed in a carrier to form a colloidal composition without being easily precipitated. Furthermore, if the colloidal composition is added to water or an aqueous solution, the carrier can also maintain the dispersed state of the hydrophobic plant extract and form a colloidal suspension. When the above-mentioned colloidal composition is applied, it can be presented in different forms according to its carrier component. As mentioned above, the carrier containing PEG-8000 and PEG-3350 may show the form of a solid solution at normal temperature, so the colloidal composition containing such a carrier may also show the form of a solid, and it is possible to make drip pills, etc. To facilitate user access. In addition, the above-mentioned carrier containing PEG-400 can be in a liquid state at normal temperature, so the colloidal composition containing such a carrier can be prepared into a paste. In accordance with the use requirements, the above-mentioned colloidal composition can be further added with water to form a diluted liquid. Preferably, the colloidal composition further comprises the aforementioned hydrophilic plant extract.
