The invention discloses cinnamyl
aldehyde Pickering emulsion for inhibiting growth and
toxin production of
aspergillus ochraceus and a preparation method thereof. In the
emulsion, the content of cinnamylaldehyde is 5 to 30 g / L, the content of
chitosan is 0.125 to 0.625 g / L, the content of corn
protein is 2.5 to 12.5 g / L, the content of
ethanol is 125 to 250 mL / L, and the content of
acetic acid is 0.5 to 1.25 mL / L.
Cinnamaldehyde biological resources are widely sourced in China, the production process is simple, the cost is low, and the
cinnamaldehyde has volatility; the
emulsion has good safety to human and
livestock, and has been listed in a
food additive directory (GB 2760-2014 national
food safety standard - standard for use of food additives); the
emulsion is novel in thought, the emulsion preparation method is simple, rapid and efficient, and the prepared cinnamylaldehyde
Pickering emulsion can keep good stability in a long time and is high in practicability; and
solid particles (the
chitosan and the corn
protein) serving as emulsifiers are wide in source, safe, non-toxic and degradable. The cinnamylaldehyde
Pickering emulsion prepared by the invention has a good effect of inhibiting the growth and
toxin production of the
aspergillus ochraceus, and can be directly applied to
mildew-proof preservation of grains.
