The invention provides a jujube leaf epidermis
wax-
protein composite membrane as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The
composite film is prepared from raw materials including vegetable
protein and jujube leaf epidermis
wax. Wherein the
mass percentage content of the jujube leaf epidermis
wax can be 0-2.5%. According to the prepared jujube leaf epidermis wax-
protein composite film, one of the raw materials, namely wax, comes from jujube leaves, the materials are safe and non-toxic, and the
resource utilization rate of the jujube leaves can be increased; the obtained jujube leaf epidermis wax-protein
composite film has excellent waterproofness,
antibacterial activity and
oxidation resistance, is used for
coating preservation of picked blueberries, has slight influence on sensory quality of the blueberries, and meanwhile, obviously reduces
weight loss rate and rotting rate of blueberry fruits during storage, effectively delays
softening of the fruits and improves preservation quality of the blueberries. The loss of
nutrient substances such as
soluble solids,
anthocyanin,
vitamin C and titratable acid is reduced, and the overall quality of the blueberries in the storage period can be effectively maintained. The invention has the advantages of low production cost and no burden on the environment after use.
