Sesamin is an all-natural component stored in sesame seeds. Its content is only about 0.5 percent. Through extracting sesamin from sesame, and experimenting in animals and humans, the Japanese scientific researchers have discovered that sesamin has effects of preventing hypertension and cardiovascular hypertrophy, protecting liver, resisting oxidation, reducing cholesterol, and anti-cancer Our company has the autonomous intellectual property of the project and has applied for the state invention patent. The initial examination was passed by the State Patent Bureau in June 2003. The content implemented in the project is based on an appraisal of existing scientific and technological achievements. The industrialized extract technological study with an annual production capacity of 1 ton of sesamin will be expected to complete for about 2 years. The product technical index requires the purity be more than 90 percent, with more than 0.3 percent in its yield. All other indexes of the product will reach enterprise's standards
Establish the production lines with an annual production capacity of 1 ton of sesamin and the related terminal product will also be developed. At present, there are the Suntory Company of Japan and the Taiwan Brands Company developing the terminal sesamin-related product. In recent years the manufacturers of the United States and the North America have also participated in the development and sales of sesamin-related health foods and medicines one after another, so the sales share of the sesamin as a plant extraction has been increasing year after year in the international trade market, and the requirement of the purity of sesamin is also getting stricter and stricter. At present, the annual demand of a high-purity sesamin will be about 10 tons in the international market At present, the sales price of sesamin is about 3000 USD/kg in the international market. The annual demand of sesamin will be about 10 tons and of the raw material of sesame, will be about 3000 tons. The suppliers of the raw material of sesam in in the international market are mainly from the Suntory Company of Japan. The project will have a production scale with an annual production capacity of 1 ton of sesamin after the completion of the project. The annual exporting value will be 3 million USD, the profit and tax, 4 million RMB, the newly-increased sesame-growing areas for agricultural production, about 0.3 million mu and the newly-increased income for farmers, 60 million RMB. The sales volume of sesamin will be strived to increase to an annual sales of 5 tons in the international market within 3-5 years, and to form the ability to make15 million USD-profit in foreign currency each year.
