In order to improve the antifungal activity of natural fungicides to control the fungal contamination on bread products, the synergistic combination of cinnamaldehyde with citral (S) against main bread spoilage fungi ( and ) was screened. Compared to the single MICs of cinnamaldehyde and citral, the MICs of them against both fungi were significantly reduced by 74-87% when presented in S. In vitro tests demonstrated that S completely inhibited the spore germination and mycelial growth of both fungi at its MIC. Mechanistic investigations revealed that S caused severe cellular membrane damage and disrupted the intracellular redox homeostasis in both fungi. In situ tests showed S significantly extended the shelf life of bread by 9 days without adversely affecting the sensory flavor and quality of the bread. These results indicated that S is potential as a natural preservative in baked products.

为提高天然杀菌剂对面包产品真菌污染的抗真菌活性,筛选了肉桂醛与柠檬醛(S)对主要面包腐败真菌( 和 )的协同组合。与肉桂醛和柠檬醛的单一最低抑菌浓度相比,当以S形式存在时,它们对两种真菌的最低抑菌浓度显著降低了74 - 87%。体外试验表明,S在其最低抑菌浓度时完全抑制了两种真菌的孢子萌发和菌丝生长。机理研究表明,S导致两种真菌的细胞膜严重受损,并破坏了细胞内的氧化还原稳态。原位试验表明,S显著延长了面包的保质期9天,且对面包的感官风味和品质没有不利影响。这些结果表明,S有潜力作为烘焙产品中的天然防腐剂。
