Chitosan and microwave composite sterilizing method and application thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of biology and particularly relates to a chitosan and microwave composite sterilizing method and an application thereof. The method is characterized in that a material is firstly treated with chitosan and then sterilized by microwaves. The method has the advantage that the sterilizing efficiency is remarkably improved under the same microwave power and sterilizing time, is applicable to disinfecting and sterilizing of the medicine and health and food processing and other industries, and is a green and environmentally-friendly sterilizing method. The method applicable to disinfecting and sterilizing of plant-based pillow inner fillers shows the advantages of being high in efficiency and low in energy consumption, and preventing the fillers from generating thermal damage and deterioration, etc.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a sterilization method. Background technique

[0002] At present, there are many pillows filled with natural plant seeds, roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits on the market. These products use the natural volatilization of aromatic substances in plants to calm the nerves and lower blood pressure. , regulating qi and relieving depression, etc. Although the plant series functional health pillow has many advantages, however, the biggest defect of using plants as the filling of the pillow core is that natural plants contain a large number of bacteria and molds. According to the investigation of relevant departments, the content of bacteria and mold in many plant pillow fillings on the market is 4,000-20,000 cfu / g, and some products have the phenomenon of long worms.

[0003] Aiming at the problem of sterilization of plant pillow fillings, if ordinary dry heat method or microwave heati...
