The Anti-Aspergillus Flavus Activity of Composite Coating Using Lemon Aldehyde and Chitosan

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to inhibit the contamination of peanut in the storage and transportation process, the research on the anti-Aspergillus flavus of the composite coating of the lemon aldehyde and chitosan was studied. The optimum formula of the coating was determined by orthogonal test. The optimum formula was that the concentration of chitosan, 6mg/ml, 0.01mg/ml, glycerol concentration of 9mg/ml. Using this formula, the growth of Aspergillus niger could be significantly inhibited.
