| Hamin melon is favored by consumers for its good taste and rich nutrition. Since it is easily affected by rot
pathogen which would cause deterioration, lead to shorter storage period and affect the sales of Hami melon when it is
stored in bad conditions, we need seek for proper preservation technologies to prevent the corruption and extend the storage
period. The paper gives a brief introduction to the progress of modified atmosphere packaging technology, storage
temperature regulating technology, chemical preservative technologies and other preservation techniques. At the same time,
the authors also give a brief introduction about foreign researches on cantaloupe infected by exogenous harmful bacterium
by using the method of damage vaccination. Some problems existing in preservation of Hami melon and the future
development trend of keeping cantaloupe fresh were also pointed out. |
