The invention provides a method for fresh keeping of guava fruits by film coating with rhizoma kaempferiae essential oil, rhizoma alpiniae officinarum essential oil and fresh ginger essential oil. According to the method disclosed by the invention, various substances having antibacterial activity, such as the rhizoma kaempferiae essential oil, the rhizoma alpiniae officinarum essential oil, the fresh ginger essential oil, and chitosan are used as fresh keeping agents. The method comprises the following steps of selecting fruits, performing disinfection, performing air drying for the first time, performing film coating, performing air drying for the second time, and performing packaging. The substances having antibacterial activity, such as the rhizoma kaempferiae essential oil, the rhizoma alpiniae officinarum essential oil, the fresh ginger essential oil and the chitosan are merged, so that films compounded from the rhizoma kaempferiae essential oil, the rhizoma alpiniae officinarum essential oil, the fresh ginger essential oil and the chitosan have obvious fresh-keeping effects on storage of picked guava fruits, and changes of mouth feel and flavor of the picked guava fruits can be notably delayed. Respiration peak can be delayed, the increment of the content of propanedial can be notably restrained, and the rise of relative electrical conductivity and the rise of polyphenol oxidase activity can be notably restrained, so that the fresh-keeping time is greatly prolonged. The method is simple and convenient, materials are easy to obtain, the cost is low, and the method is easy to popularize.
