The present disclosure relates to the technical field of nut-derived fruit oil preparation, in particular to a method for extracting palmitoleic acid from Macadamia integrifolia and use thereof. In the method for extracting palmitoleic acid from Macadamia integrifolia, a fruit oil of the Macadamia integrifolia is purified by vacuum distillation, and an antioxidant is added during the vacuum distillation. A preparation method of the antioxidant includes the following steps: extracting a pulverized Macadamia integrifolia green peel using ethanol by heat reflux to obtain a green peel extract; extracting the green peel extract using petroleum ether, and then using ethyl acetate; collecting an ethyl acetate layer to obtain the antioxidant. The method can avoid easy oxidization and deterioration of oil during extracting and enriching the palmitoleic acid, and can enrich the palmitoleic acid in the fruit oil of the Macadamia integrifolia by not less than 3 times.

The present invention relates to a method of extracting a low-molecular-weight proanthocyanidin using cranberries and lactic acid bacteria, and more particularly, the method may include (S1) growing and extracting a seed culture from cranberries, (S2) reinforcing the metabolism of a saccharide by adjusting a metabolic process, (S3) extracting the seed culture whose metabolic process is adjusted and culturing the extracted result, (S4) mixing cranberries, distilled water and a saccharide with the grown seed culture and fermenting the mixture, and (S5) extracting an unbound polyphenol from the fermented mixture.

Provided are indigo darkener, containing: in parts by weight, 0.1-99 of indigo dye, 0-99 of alkaline dyeing assistant, 0.01-99 of acidic dyeing assistant, and 0-99 of oxidizing agent, and hair dyeing process using the indigo darkener. The multi-layer scales on the surface of hair are opened at large angles under alkaline condition and/or high-temperature condition, so that large indigo dyeing particles are easily absorbed in the scales; black indigo oxocarbon or carbon black is generated under the action of alkaline dyeing assistant and oxidizing agent at high temperature by the property that the indigo dye is easy to oxidize; the acidic dye assistant is added as the temperature decreases, and the scales having opening angles on the surface of hair are closed under acidic condition, so that the indigo carbide is firmly clamped and fixed in the scales of hair; finally, the blue indigo dyes white hair into black.
