Abstract

A method for preparing an antibacterial and fresh-keeping fruit-packaging material through three-dimensional (3D) printing includes the following steps: dissolving gum arabic and pullulan separately in deionized water to obtain a gum arabic solution and a pullulan solution; subjecting a probiotic to cultivation, centrifugation, and resuspension to obtain a bacterial suspension; mixing the bacterial suspension, the gum arabic solution, and the pullulan solution to obtain a core layer solution; mixing polyvinyl chloride, a modifier, and a plasticizer to obtain a shell layer solution; injecting the shell layer solution and the core layer solution into two syringes, respectively; conducting coaxial 3D printing to finally obtain a coaxial 3D printing product with a core-shell structure; and conducting uniaxial 3D printing with the shell layer solution alone to form an outer layer on the coaxial 3D printing product to obtain the antibacterial and fresh-keeping fruit-packaging material with inner and outer layers.
