The Application of Electron Beam Irradiation on Fruits Preservation

摘要

Food irradiation with high-energy electron from accelerator is a new type technique for storing andrefreshing food. This paper reviewed the fresh-keeping mechanism and characteristics of electron beam irradiationin fruits preservation application recently. Electron beam irradiation can especially inhibit germination,delay maturate, sterilize and improve quality and so on. At last, we combined with other packaging technologiessuch as modified atmosphere packaging for fresh-keeping.
