莲藕贮期褐变机理与防褐变技术研究

莲藕贮期褐变是影响质量的关键。本文研究了莲藕贮期内多酚氧化酶和褐变度的关系,探讨了温度、氧气等环境条件对多酚氧化酶的活性和莲藕褐变的影响作用,通过褐变抑制效果试验,寻找出了几种较好的处理方法和贮藏环境。实验表明,多酚氧化酶是引起莲藕褐变的主要因素,莲藕贮期内多酚氧化酶的活性与褐变度成正相关,真空包装及低温贮藏能有效地抑制莲藕褐变,具有良好的保鲜作用。

The relationship between polyphenol oxidase(PPO)and the browning deg ree(BD),the influence of environmental condition on browning of lotus root are discussed in this paper .Throug h experiments,it is showed that PPO and BD have positive correlation,low temperature and vacuum within the plastic bag can better prevent browning and have a g ood effect of keeping freshness of lotus root.
