Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of fruit preservation, and relates to a kiwifruit preservation method using honeysuckle compound extract combined with chitosan coating treatment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis Planch.) is a plant of the Actinidia genus of the Actinidiaceae family. At present, the main cultivated varieties of kiwifruit in China are Chinese kiwifruit and delicious kiwifruit. 'Xuxiang' kiwifruit belongs to a kind of delicious kiwifruit. The fruit contains rich Vc, has attractive aroma and delicate taste, and is sweet and sour. The fruit can not only quench thirst, but also has the effects of antioxidation, cancer prevention, blood lipid and blood pressure regulation, and anti-aging. Due to the good value of food and medicine of kiwifruit, the fruit is deeply loved by people. However, the kiwifruit has a thin skin and much juice, belongs to a typical respiration climacteric berry, has relatively vigorous postharvest respiration metabolism, is easily damaged mechanically and suffers from microbial diseases, and is extremely easy to rot and breed microorganisms under natural conditions after being stored for a short time and becoming soft and mature, so that the storage quality is reduced and the sales quality of fresh kiwifruit is seriously affected. Although there are many fruit storage and preservation methods at present, these methods excessively depend on chemicals, have limited preservation effect, and have chemical residues. With the improvement of people's living standards, natural, safe and environmentally-friendly preservation technologies are increasingly concerned by people. SUMMARY

[0003] The application aims to provide a kiwifruit preservation method using honeysuckle compound extract combined with chitosan coating treatment, and solve the problems of limited preservation effect of the existing 'Xuxiang' kiwifruit and harm of chemical drugs used for preservation to human bodies.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the application is that 80% mature 'Xuxiang' kiwifruit is washed with clean water to remove dirt on the fruit surface, then the fruit is soaked in honeysuckle compound extract for 8-12 min, then the fruit is treated with chitosan coating, and finally the fruit is dried in ventilation, packaged with a PE preservative bag, and stored in a storage room at a temperature of 20-25 DEG C and humidity under natural conditions. The honeysuckle compound extract is prepared by soaking high-quality honeysuckle, high-quality galangal and clove in water for 25 min, and boiling for 25 min. After cooling, the 'Xuxiang' kiwifruit is soaked. Then the fruit is treated with 2% chitosan coating, dried in ventilation, and packaged.

[0005] The application has the beneficial effect that the 'Xuxiang' kiwifruit treated with honeysuckle compound extract combined with chitosan coating has good preservation effect and is harmless to human bodies. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0006] Traditional Chinese medicine contains flavonoids, polyphenols and other antioxidants, honeysuckle extract has antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory and other biological activities. Galangal and clove have antibacterial effect, and are both edible and medicinal materials.

[0007] The compound of honeysuckle, galangal and clove combined with chitosan coating to preserve fruits, not only efficient, but also safe and environmentally friendly, it is a very promising biological preservation technology.
