据白鹿视频报道,陕西西安的图图(化名)全家吃了隔夜西瓜后开始恶心、呕吐、腹泻,父母因为胃肠炎住进了当地医院,图图不仅出现胃肠炎表现,还出现贫血、无尿、肾功能衰竭,赶紧来到西安儿童医院肾脏科进行血液透析,血浆置换治疗。
Is it safe to eat refrigerated watermelon? The topic has once again taken over social media platforms.
那么冰西瓜到底能不能吃?怎么吃才安全呢?
According to a study on bacteria formed in watermelon overnight, the researchers cut the watermelon with clean, specialized knives and household butcher knives. Pieces of watermelon were divided into experimental and control groups. After that, the watermelon was wrapped in cling film to preserve freshness and placed in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
央视《健康之路》中的一个实验显示,实验人员分别用普通切肉的菜刀和专用刀板分别切取西瓜,封上保鲜膜隔夜保存后检测西瓜面,得到了差异巨大的数据。
The results showed that watermelons cut with special knives contained only 45 bacteria per 25 grams, while watermelons cut with household knives contained 8400 bacteria per 25 grams.
用专门的砧板和菜刀切取的西瓜,每25g西瓜中检测出45个细菌。而切肉菜刀处理过的西瓜,每25g西瓜中竟检测出8400个细菌。
This experiment proved that watermelons cut with clean knives will not form deadly bacteria when stored in the refrigerator.
研究表明,如果使用干净的刀具、砧板切瓜,且及时用干净的保鲜膜包裹并放入冰箱,就不容易有致病菌,即使隔夜也能吃。
For whole watermelons, run cold water over watermelon. Wipe the outside to remove any dirt or residue and pat with a clean, dry towel or paper towels.
对于完整的西瓜,食用前用冷水清洗,去除泥土和残留,再用干净的布或纸巾擦拭干净。
When buying pre-cut or packaged watermelon, choose only those refrigerated or surrounded by ice.
对于市面上预切的或包装好的西瓜,选择冷藏或置于冰块中的产品。
Cut watermelons with clean knives.
切瓜时,用专用切水果的干净的刀和砧板,尤其不能用切过生肉的刀直接切西瓜。
Don't let watermelon pieces sit out at room temperature for longer than three hours.
常温储存勿超3小时。高温环境下,无论是否贴保鲜膜,6小时左右就会滋生大量细菌,3小时以内细菌滋生量少,最好现切现吃。
For cut watermelons, wrap tightly in plastic, or in an airtight container and refrigerate.
包上保鲜膜:保鲜膜能够把西瓜和冰箱中的其他食物隔离开,避免二次污染,并及时放冰箱。
To be eaten within 24 hours (the sooner you eat it, the better!)
别隔天:西瓜在冰箱里的冷藏时间,最好不要超过12小时,最长不要超过24小时。
Keep fresh produce separate from raw meat, poultry, and seafood products.
不让冰箱成为细菌的“天堂”,将冷藏室进行分区,生熟食物分开存放。最好能一个月清洗一次冰箱。
