Background
The sweet corn particles are light yellow, sweet and delicious in taste, crisp in texture, high in moisture and sugar content, rich in vitamins, amino acids, mineral substances and trace elements, and can reduce blood cholesterol by using glutathione, linoleic acid and other nutrient substances. However, because the sweet corn has high moisture and sugar content, high respiratory activity and serious nutrient loss, the freshness, tenderness and sweetness are reduced, the taste is rough, pathogenic microorganisms are bred, the rotting and deterioration are accelerated, the eating quality and the taste and flavor of the sweet corn are seriously influenced, and the storage period and the shelf life are shortened. Therefore, it is very necessary to rapidly cool the harvested sweet corn to preserve the quality of the sweet corn.
An important link after the sweet corn is harvested is freezing treatment, and the freezing can inhibit respiration, so that the maturing and aging speed of the sweet corn is reduced. Freezing is a well-known preservation method widely used in the food industry. Freezing damage in cell matrices is a major challenge facing the food industry. The usual freezing methods may lead to a reduction in the shelf life and deterioration in the quality of the corn.

2) Pre-cooling in the field: precooling the sweet corn at 4 ℃ by using a precooler;
3) And (3) low-temperature transportation: the foam box is heated to low temperature and then is transported to a laboratory;
4) Pre-freezing treatment: peeling off sweet corn husks and removing corn stigma; refrigerating in a refrigerator at 4 deg.C;
5) Setting refrigerating fluid: preparing a calcium chloride aqueous solution with the mass concentration of 15 to 25 percent, and putting the calcium chloride aqueous solution into a treatment tank;
6) Starting a refrigerating device: setting the target temperature of the saline solution to-10 ℃;
7) Freezing the sweet corn: taking out the sweet corn from the refrigerator, putting the sweet corn into a treatment tank, wherein the mass ratio of the sweet corn to the calcium chloride salt water solution is 1:5, putting the sweet corn into a calcium chloride salt aqueous solution 1cm below the liquid level;
8) Freezing and storing: when the geometric center temperature of the sweet corn reaches-3 ℃, taking out the sweet corn, and putting the sweet corn into a refrigerator with the temperature of-3 ℃ for freezing storage.
Alternatively, in one embodiment, a prepared calcium chloride salt aqueous solution with a mass concentration of 20% is placed in the treatment tank.
Preferably, in one embodiment, the foam box is transported to a laboratory at a low temperature of 4 ℃ in a low-temperature transportation link.
The invention uses a field precooling auxiliary saline water dipping freezing method to freeze the sweet corn. The invention can effectively maintain the color, moisture, hardness, soluble solid content and antioxidant enzyme activity of the sweet corn, slow down the quality loss and effectively prolong the shelf life.

5) Setting refrigerating fluid: preparing a calcium chloride salt aqueous solution with the mass concentration of 20 percent, and putting the calcium chloride salt aqueous solution into a treatment tank;
6) Starting a refrigerating device: setting the target temperature of the saline solution to-10 ℃;
7) Freezing the sweet corn: taking out the sweet corn from the refrigerator, putting the sweet corn into a treatment tank, wherein the mass ratio of the sweet corn to the calcium chloride salt water solution is 1:5, putting the sweet corn into a calcium chloride salt aqueous solution 1cm below the liquid level;
8) Freezing and storing: when the geometric center temperature of the sweet corn reaches-3 ℃, taking out the sweet corn, and putting the sweet corn into a refrigerator at-3 ℃ for freezing;
9) The index test was performed every 7 days.
2. Color difference and sensory evaluation
Color evaluation was performed using a colorimeter (Minolta, osaka, japan, model-NH 310). The instrument was aligned to black and white standards and observed for experimental data L, a, and b. Recording sensory quality analysis: corn tissue, odor and appearance. Five trained evaluators scored each group individually based on the condition of the sweet corn samples.
3. Measurement of physical index
Hardness index determination was measured using a FHM-5 fruit hardness analyzer. After contacting with the sweet corn, the probe reaches a penetration rate of 20 mm/min within 10 mm. Sweet corn particles were first homogenized and centrifuged at 15,000 rpm (Beckman J20-2) for 20 minutes. The supernatant was collected for analysis in subsequent experiments. The supernatant was tested with a digital display refractometer (Atago, japan). Weight loss index determination sweet corn was weighed using an electronic balance. Weight loss was calculated as the percentage reduction in sweet corn weight compared to the initial weight. The indexes of the scanning electron microscope were modified with reference to the method of Southgate et al. Kernels were randomly selected from the middle area of frozen sweet corn. Grinding seeds at low temperature, weighing 5 g of ground sample, putting the ground sample into a 50 ml test tube, extracting twice with 25 ml of 50 (ethanol: deionized water), and centrifuging for 20 min at 4 ℃; 2 ml of the supernatant was filtered through a 0.2 μm water needle to measure the sugar content.
