The Effect of Fruit Wax and Thiabendazole Combined with 1-MCP Treatment on the Storage Quality of Lingwu Long Jujube

Fruit wax, thiabendazole and 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene) were utilized as raw materials, we studied the preservation effect of Lingwu long jujube at 0 ℃. The results shows that "1 μL / L 1-MCP + wax coating + 0.2% thiabendazole" treatment can effectively maintain the quality of jujube, and the respiration rate of Lingwu long jujube is significantly(p < 0.05)decreased.After treatment with 1-MCP fumigation, thiabendazole and fruit wax coating, Lingwu jujube is stored at 0 ℃ for 100 days, the decaying acid content is 0.295 g/100 g, the V_C content 291.63 mg/100 g, the respiration rate 97.22 CO₂ mg/(kg·h), the fruit hardness 11.32 kg/cm², and the weight loss rate of 5.17%. The results shows that the combination of "wax and thiabendazole" in 1-MCP fumigation could improve the storage time and storage quality of Lingwu jujube fruit at 0 ℃.
