Sterilization specialities and influencial factors of the new sterilization agent of food were studied in this paper.The sterilization experiment indicated that slowly releasing chlorine dioxide gas from the chlorine dioxide of solid carrier had good effect of sterilization.Different gas concentration was needed to different germs,such as Escherichia coli(60 000/mL) was 1.64~1.81 mg/m~3,Staphylococcus aureus(10 500/mL)was 0.86~0.915 mg/m~3,Bacillus subtilis(800/mL)was 6.67~6.78 mg/m~3,Aspergillus flavus(80 000/mL)was 1.64~1.78 mg/m~3.
