This study aimed to solve the problem of juice loss during storage, which could lead to spoilage of cold fresh horse meat.By electrostatic spinning technology, one-way water transfer antibacterial pads were prepared and applied to the cold horse meat preservation experiments.The effect of the pad on the preservation of cold horse meat was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier infrared spectroscopy, slow-release performance, one-way water transfer performance, and antibacterial performance.Results showed that thymol was successfully encapsulated in the upper fibrous membrane and had a slow-release effect.It has a significant antibacterial effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus[diameter of inhibition circle was (24.32±0.72) mm].Water can spontaneously reach the hydrophilic layer from the hydrophobic layer and be absorbed.In the storage experiment of cold fresh horse meat, the one-way water transfer pad had a significant delaying effect on the increase of total colony value and TVB-N value in horse meat, and could extend the shelf life of horse meat for 6 days.The pad can control the water required for microbial growth and reproduction and inhibit microbial reproduction, therefore, the pad can effectively extend the shelf life of cold meat, which provides a new direction for the storage and preservation of cold meat.
