Mustard essential oil fresh preserver and application thereof in refreshing fruits and vegetables

Abstract

The invention discloses a mustard essential oil fresh preserver and an application thereof in refreshing fruits and vegetables. The main active component of the mustard essential oil fresh preserver is mustard essential oil containing over 99% of allylisothiocyanate, and the mustard essential oil fresh preserver is mainly applied to a solid sustained release tablet and packaging bags made of plastic aluminum film paper. The solid sustained release tablet consists of 5%-10% of the mustard essential oil, 80%-85% of beta- cyclodextrin and 5%-10% of stearic acid. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: firstly, fully mixing and stirring the mustard essential oil and the alpha (beta)-cyclodextrin according to the proportion in a seal container, adding the stearic acid, mixing and stirring, directly packaging in the paper bags, sealing the opening in time, filling in the plastic bags, sealing by vacuumizing, or after using a tablet machine to make tablets, filling in the plastic film bags and sealing the opening, finally storing at dark places. The fresh preserver can slowly release the mustard essential oil, can be used combining with fruit and vegetable plastic film package, and is suitable for storing, conveying and refreshing various fruits and vegetables of apples, pears, grapes, jujubes, oranges, mangos, cherries, bananas, potatoes, onions, garlic and the like, thereby effectively restraining the growth of pathogenic organisms after picking up the fruits and the vegetables in the process of storing and refreshing and prolonging the refreshing time and the distance of the market circulation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fresh-keeping product, technology and application of fresh agricultural products, and in particular relates to a mustard essential oil fresh-keeping agent and its application in fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping. Background technique [0002] From harvesting to human consumption, fresh fruits and vegetables are related to food safety, rot loss (including spoilage, insect pests) and other issues due to the infection of pathogenic organisms. In addition, the incidence of human diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms and the toxins they secrete has gradually increased in recent years. Pathogenic microorganisms, such as spoilage bacteria, yeasts, molds, aflatoxins, etc., will invade through various channels, causing human food poisoning. The outbreak of disease endangers human safety. At present, the most effective way to control postharvest diseases of fruits and vegetables is cold storage combined with chemical fungicid...
