Embodiment 1

[0026] Example 1 Pre-experiment of plum fruit treated with valeric acid

[0027] The experimental material is green crispy plums (which belong to the same category of crispy plums as Weizui plums), which were picked in Dianjiang, Chongqing in early July 2020. On the day of picking, they were transported back to the laboratory of the Citrus Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and 160 fruits with uniform maturity and size, without pests and mechanical damage, were randomly divided into 4 groups, and water (CK group) and valeric acid aqueous solution were used respectively. After soaking in the solution for 5 min, take it out to dry, and the valerian acid aqueous solution treatment group adopts three concentrations: 20 ppm, 10 ppm, and 1000 ppm. Fruit firmness was detected by sampling at 5 days and 10 days of storage. For specific experimental material processing methods and detection methods, refer to the methods in Example 2.

[0031] 1 Experimental materials and instruments

[0032] 1.1 Experimental materials and processing

[0033] The fruit of the crooked plum was picked in Yubei District, Chongqing on July 27, 2020, and it is about eighth ripe. The crooked plum was picked and transported back to the laboratory of the Citrus Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences on the same day to pick out the fruits with the same maturity and size, and no pests and mechanical damage. 270 fruits were screened and randomly divided into 9 groups. Group 1 was used for the determination of firmness, soluble solids and titratable acid at 0 days, peeled and cored to take 1 / 4 of the pulp of each fruit, immediately fixed the fruit with liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80°C for later use. Group 4 was used for immersion in water for 5 min for the control group, namely CK group; group 4 was used for immersion in 10 mg / L valerian acid aqueous solution for 5 min, used for treatment group, namely V...

Abstract

The invention discloses a new application of valeric acid in the storage and preservation of fruits and vegetables and a method for post-harvest treatment of fruits and fruits to prolong the storage period. The present invention finds for the first time that valeric acid treatment can effectively maintain fruit firmness and cell wall components, and reduce cell wall degrading enzymes, so it can be used for post-harvest treatment of fruits, storage and preservation, and prolong shelf life of fruits, thereby improving the economic value of fruits. Oxalic acid is a valerian plant extract, which has no toxic and side effects. It will not cause toxicity when used in fruit and vegetable processing. It is expected to be widely used as an excellent fruit and vegetable storage and preservation treatment agent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of agriculture and relates to the storage and preservation technology of fruits and vegetables, in particular to the application of valeric acid in the storage and preservation of fruits and vegetables and a method for postharvest treatment of fruits to maintain hardness and delay aging. Background technique [0002] Crooked plum is a new variety of bud-turned plum, with protruding causal top, peculiar appearance and "crooked mouth", so it is named crooked plum. It is a Prunus plant of the family Rosaceae, mainly concentrated in Yubei, Chongqing , Bishan, Yunyang and other places. Crooked plum single fruit is larger, with an average weight of 51.2g. The flesh is crunchy, sweet and sour, and is rich in sugar, acid, vitamins and minerals and other rich nutrients. The plum ripens later than local plums, mainly in July-August. During this period, the temperature in Chongqing is higher, and the shelf life is 5-8...
