The invention relates to the technical field of tobacco production, in particular to a composition and application thereof in inhibiting
browning of
flue-cured tobacco leaves. The composition provided by the invention consists of the
vitamin C and the bamboo leaf
antioxidant which are compatible, matched and synergistic, so that the
oxidation resistance of the tobacco leaves can be better enhanced,
active oxygen generated in the baking process can be balanced, and a
plasma membrane
system is prevented from premature
lipid oxidation rupture, thereby effectively relieving the occurrence of
browning reaction and prolonging the service life of the tobacco leaves. The tobacco color and quality are improved. Meanwhile, the components are all natural
antioxidant substances, are easy to dissolve in water, low in use concentration, harmless to human and
livestock, free of any residue, and green and environment-friendly. When the composition provided by the invention is used for reducing or inhibiting
browning of the
flue-cured tobacco, only fresh tobacco leaves need to be sprayed or soaked, additional operation is not needed, the method is simple and easy to implement, and the composition is suitable for various
flue-cured tobacco varieties and can also be suitable for treatment before cigars and white tobacco are aired, and the color and the quality of the tobacco leaves are improved.
