Abstract

During the storage process of aquatic products, the deterioration caused by bacterial infection is a matter of great concern.Therefore, this study was committed to developing new antibacterial packaging for tilapia.Firstly, polyether sulfone (PES) material was sulfonated with concentrated sulfuric acid and used as a membrane substrate.The results of Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), thermal analysis (TG), and contact angle (CA) showed that the hydrophilicity and surface activity of the material were improved after sulfonation.On this basis, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were intercalated into the membrane material to synthesize SPES-AgNPs antibacterial membrane.Furthermore, the characterization of the antibacterial film was analyzed by scanning electron microscope, atomic force electron microscope, and X-ray, and its safety range was determined by the Ag+release test, and the antibacterial performance of the film was determined by the antibacterial ring test.Results showed that the sulfonated SPES material combined well with AgNPs, and the average size of AgNPs on the membrane was about 10-100 nm.The Ag+release experiment showed that the Ag+release of the SPES-AgNPs membrane was always within the safe range.SPES-AgNPs membrane could effectively inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Yersinia enterocolitica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Escherichia coli, with an average inhibition rate of more than 85%.The SPES-AgNPs membranes were used for tilapia preservation, and all samples were stored in a freezer at (1±0.1) ℃ for 18 days by periodically determining the total number of colonies, the total number of anaerobic colonies, the total number of psychrotrophic colonies, the total volatile basic nitrogen value, as well as the k value, and analyzing the freshness of tilapia samples based on sensory scoring.The results showed that the membrane could delay the changes in chemical, microbial, and sensory aspects when fish meat samples were preserved, and could improve the storage quality and extend the shelf life of tilapia, which would be an aquatic packaging material with promising applications.
