This invention discloses a salmon
protamine preservative, its preparation process, and its application, relating to the field of
food preservation technology. The process includes: preparing a salmon
protamine solution with a
mass concentration of 2-5%; preparing a
sodium alginate solution with a
mass concentration of 1-3%; mixing the salmon
protamine solution and
sodium alginate solution at a volume ratio of 1:1 to 1:3 to obtain a
mixed solution; adding the
mixed solution dropwise to a
calcium chloride solution with a
mass concentration of 2-4% to form gel microspheres; solidifying the microspheres in the
calcium chloride solution and filtering to obtain the gel microspheres; immersing the washed gel microspheres in a
chitosan solution with a mass concentration of 0.5-1.5%; and freeze-
drying the obtained gel microspheres to obtain the final product. This invention achieves efficient encapsulation and long-term sustained release of salmon protamine, enhances the
structural stability of microspheres in acidic environments, prevents premature leakage of active ingredients, exhibits broad-spectrum
antibacterial activity, extends food
shelf life, and is characterized by a mild,
environmentally friendly process that facilitates storage and transportation.
