What is the "banana soaking potion" on the Internet?
Some netizens speculated that it was formaldehyde solution, but it was not. Agricultural experts explained this. White liquid is a preservative, so consumers don't have to worry. At present, prochloraz and iprodione are the main fungicides used for banana sterilization and preservation, both of which are efficient, broad-spectrum and low-toxic.

Prochloraz is commonly used to control anthracnose, leaf spot, rice bakanae disease and rice blast of fruits and vegetables, and iprodione is also commonly used to control early defoliation, gray mold and early blight of fruit trees, vegetables and fruits. Bananas treated with fungicides, combined with modified atmosphere fresh-keeping bags and low temperature, can play a good anti-corrosion and fresh-keeping effect.

Why do you want to make good bananas?

Picked bananas are prone to anthracnose or shaft rot-this name may sound strange, but most people have encountered it. Anthracnose shows that bananas grow black and brown black spots, and then quickly expand and merge. Within a few days, the whole banana will turn black and rot.

Axle rot is commonly known as "white mold". At first, white mold appeared at the incision of banana comb and rotted, and it continued to develop until the fruit stalk was dark brown, which led to the banana falling off. Later, the whole banana became sick, the peel cracked and the pulp degenerated. Therefore, the picked bananas need to be sterilized and kept fresh to prevent mildew.

Is banana preservative safe?

Prochloraz and iprodione are both low-toxic pesticides allowed to be used in China. The national food safety standard "Maximum Residue Limits of Pesticides in Food" (GB2763-20 14) clearly stipulates the residue limits of various pesticides. For example, the maximum residue limits of prochloraz and iprodione in bananas are 5mg/kg and 10mg/kg respectively. Plant growth regulators, also known as phytohormones, are used to artificially regulate the growth and development process of plants, with low toxicity, small dosage and self-limitation. If it is used too much, it will not have a good effect.

Rational use of pesticides such as fungicides and plant growth regulators in accordance with state regulations will not cause harm to health. Therefore, the banana is still the banana, so eat it boldly!
