Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of food packaging, and particularly relates to a composite fresh-keeping film and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Fresh fruits maintain a high physiological activity after being picked. Especially for fruits with a large water content, they are more likely to rot and deteriorate, bringing great difficulties to storage and transportation.

[0003] Some existing fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping methods mostly use chemical substances for treatment to achieve fruit fresh-keeping. Therefore, chemical substances are likely to remain on the fruit surface, thus affecting the hygienic safety of the fruit. Most of the current fruit fresh-keeping films use perforations on the fresh-keeping film to achieve the respiration of fruits and vegetables. Due to the too large pores, the water of the fruits volatilizes too fast and loses water seriously, and the fresh-keeping and storage quality guarantee time is extremely short. The fruit fresh-keeping method by opening holes in the fresh-keeping film allows the fruits to directly contact the air, resulting in the fruits being easily affected by the oxygen in the air and accelerating ripening and rotting. How to reduce the loss during the storage of fresh fruits and extend the storage period is particularly important. Therefore, studying the fresh-keeping method of fresh fruits has important practical significance.

[0004] Currently, the basic film-forming raw materials studied at home and abroad are polysaccharides, proteins, and lipids. In recent years, biomass food fresh-keeping materials have attracted much attention due to their potential in the fresh-keeping application of fruits and vegetables. One promising biomass packaging material is polysaccharide polyelectrolyte packaging. These packaging materials can be used as carriers of natural active substances, such as antioxidants, antibacterial agents, etc. In polysaccharide polyelectrolyte packaging, chitosan and pectin are widely used in the fresh-keeping application of fruits and vegetables due to their good biocompatibility and physicochemical properties. However, the single packaging based on chitosan or pectin has a weak inhibitory effect on bacteria and cannot meet the requirements of fruit fresh-keeping. Moreover, the existing composite fresh-keeping films have poor antibacterial properties, resulting in the generation of antibacterial properties after the reproduction of bacteria and accelerating food spoilage.

[0144] Comparative Example 4

[0145] Prepare a double-layer film according to the method of Example 1, except that lignin is added to the pectin film layer and an anthocyanin silver ion compound is added to the chitosan film layer.

[0146] Test Example 1

[0147] The composite fresh-keeping films and double-layer films prepared in the examples and comparative examples were put into a Fourier transform infrared detector for detection to obtain the corresponding Fourier transform infrared detection spectrograms, as specifically shown in Figure 2 . Through Figure 2 It can be seen that compared with the double-layer film of the comparative example, the absorption peak related to hydrogen bond in the composite fresh-keeping film containing anthocyanin-nano silver ions did not show an obvious shift, indicating that the addition of anthocyanin-nano silver ions had no effect on the degree of association of hydroxyl groups in the composite fresh-keeping film. With the increase of the lignin content, the positions of the absorption peaks of the composite fresh-keeping film were different between the spectral bands, but no new peaks appeared in the spectral bands, indicating that the addition of lignin did not change the structure of the film matrix. Therefore, the spectral band changes in the Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum indicate that anthocyanin-nano silver ions and lignin are embedded in the pectin / chitosan matrix through intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions.

[0148] Test Example 2

[0149] The antioxidant rates of the composite fresh-keeping films and double-layer films prepared in the examples and comparative examples were tested. The test method was determined according to the method in the reference document "Development of a chitosan / pectin-based multi-active food packaging with both UV and microbial defense functions for effectively preserving of strawberry". The test results are shown in Table 3. The antioxidant activities of the composite fresh-keeping films and double-layer films were evaluated by measuring the DPPH radical scavenging rate and the ABTS radical scavenging rate. When the lignin mass concentration was 1%, 5%, 10%, and 15%, the antioxidant activity of the composite fresh-keeping film increased with the increase of the lignin addition amount, and the radical scavenging rate increased with the increase of the proportion of the CL film thickness. Therefore, the composite fresh-keeping film containing lignin and anthocyanin is expected to be applied to delay the oxidative deterioration of fruits.

[0152] Test Example 3

[0153] The ultraviolet spectra of the composite fresh-keeping film prepared in the example and the double-layer film prepared in the comparative example were tested, and the test results are as Figure 3 shown. From Figure 3It can be seen that compared with the double-layer film of the comparative example, the composite fresh-keeping film loaded with anthocyanin and lignin exhibits stronger UV shielding ability. After adding anthocyanin to the P / C film, the blocking efficiency of the fresh-keeping film (PG / C) for ultraviolet light and visible light is improved. After adding lignin, the UV transmittance of the composite fresh-keeping film (PG / CL) is significantly reduced, especially in the range of 200-350 nm. When the lignin concentration > 5%, the UV transmittance of the composite fresh-keeping film is very low, indicating that the composite fresh-keeping film loaded with lignin and anthocyanin can effectively block ultraviolet rays. Therefore, adding lignin to chitosan and compounding it with pectin containing anthocyanin-nano silver ion compound, the chitosan film, as a biological defense substance, absorbs ultraviolet-visible light. The photodegradation process of anthocyanin is expected to be controlled by lignin. Based on the spectral superposition theory, protected by lignin, anthocyanin will maintain continuous antioxidant activity and be applied to the fresh-keeping packaging of fruits.

[0154] Test Example 4

[0155] The composite fresh-keeping film prepared in the example and the double-layer film prepared in the comparative example were subjected to antibacterial tests. The specific test method: The bacterial strain was cultured in nutrient broth for 24 hours, and then 0.1 ml of the inoculum containing pathogens was evenly distributed on the nutrient broth (LB) medium. The prepared membrane discs (diameter 10 mm) were placed in a petri dish filled with LB medium and incubated at 37 °C for 24 hours. The inhibition diameter was measured using a micrometer. The P / C film of Comparative Example 3, the PG / CL 1% film of Example 4, and the PG / CL 15% film of Example 1 were selected as membrane samples, and no film was used as a control. The film samples were irradiated with ultraviolet light and placed on the same horizontal line to be parallel to the ultraviolet lamp (253.7 nm, 15 W), and the linear distance was 30 cm. The film samples were tested after being exposed to ultraviolet light for different time periods (0, 1, 2, 3 hours). The test results are shown in Table 4. The results show that the composite fresh-keeping film prepared in the example has obvious changes in the antibacterial zones against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. After adding lignin to the pectin / chitosan double-layer film, the P / CL film shows obvious inhibitory effects on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and obvious antibacterial zones are formed around the film. As the lignin concentration increases, the diameter of the antibacterial zone gradually increases. The antibacterial zones of the PG / CL 15% composite fresh-keeping film prepared in Example 1 against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli are significantly larger than those of the P / C double-layer film prepared in Comparative Example 3 (p < 0.05). After adding lignin and anthocyanin to the pectin / chitosan double-layer film, it exhibits strong antibacterial activity. This indicates that the composite fresh-keeping film containing lignin and anthocyanin has good antibacterial effects and can have good application prospects as a new type of antibacterial packaging material in fruit preservation.

[0158] Test Example 5

[0159] Cherry freshness preservation tests will be conducted on the P / C film of Comparative Example 3, the PG / CL 1% film of Example 4, and the PG / CL 15% film of Example 1. The control group is cherries without film coating treatment. The cherries are sourced from Nanjing Baiguoyuan Company. The specific test method is as follows: The selection of cherries is based on the absence of visible mechanical damage or deteriorated areas on the surface, consistent maturity, and medium size. The harvested cherries are randomly divided into four treatment groups: no packaging treatment (CK); P / C film coating; PG / CL 1% film coating; PG / CL 15% film coating. The cherries are successively immersed in a 2% (W / V) pectin solution for 30 seconds, then placed in a 2% chitosan solution for 30 seconds, and then fished out; the cherries are dried until a double-layer film is formed on the fruit surface; the coated cherries are taken out and dried in a fume hood at 25°C for 15 minutes to form film-coated cherries, and then stored at room temperature of 25°C for 8 days. See specifically Figure 4 . During the test process, it was found that with the extension of the storage time, the cherries showed a certain degree of decay and dehydration. After 4 days of storage at room temperature, the double-layer film prepared in Comparative Example 1 and the cherries without film coating treatment showed decay and dehydration, while the composite fresh-keeping films of Example 1 and Example 4 remained fresh after 8 days of storage, and no bacterial infection occurred during the entire storage period (generally about 7-8 days) of the cherries. This indicates that the composite fresh-keeping film prepared by the present invention can be used as a new type of fresh-keeping packaging material and has good application prospects in fruit freshness preservation.

[0160] It can be seen from the results in Tables 1 - 4 that the composite fresh-keeping film containing lignin and anthocyanin of the present invention has significantly better antibacterial and freshness preservation effects than the pectin / chitosan double-layer film without lignin and without lignin and anthocyanin.

[0161] In summary, the raw materials of the composite fresh-keeping film of the present invention are safe, non-toxic, and widely sourced, and have certain film-forming properties by themselves. While having a certain freshness preservation effect, it can play an antibacterial and antioxidant role. The raw materials used are all widely sourced, inexpensive, and easily available, and are safe and non-toxic to the human body, ensuring a certain degree of popularization.

[0162] The composite fresh-keeping film provided by the present invention comprises a pectin film layer and a chitosan film layer which are arranged up and down. The pectin film layer contains anthocyanin and / or anthocyanin silver ion compound, and the chitosan film layer contains lignin. Through the synergistic effect between the double-layer films, the composite fresh-keeping film has antibacterial activity against a variety of food spoilage bacteria, strong antioxidant performance, and can significantly improve the storage period. It is further found that the composite fresh-keeping film has good ultraviolet shielding performance, gas barrier and moisture barrier properties, and is transparent and shiny. The preparation process of the composite fresh-keeping film is simple in operation, convenient to use, sufficient in raw material supply, easy to popularize and apply, has a very broad application prospect, and is easy to be compounded with other fresh-keeping methods to achieve better effects.
