Abstract: Taking blueberry as a research object, poly(glycolic acid) (PGA)/poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBAT) biodegradable composite films were prepared by using a twin-screw extruder and a film blowing mechanism. The effects of different composite films on the fresh-keeping quality of blueberry were investigated by taking enzyme activity, bioactive compounds, fruit quality and sensory evaluation as assessment indicators. The results indicated that the PGA/PBAT composite film at a weight ratio of 60/40 could effectively inhibit an increase in the H2O2 content and delay a decrease in the total phenol content, total flavonoids content, soluble solids content and sensory score. Therefore, the biodegradable preservative films based on the PGA and PBAT compounds are very advantageous to the preservation of blueberries, especially for the PGA/PBAT composite film at a weight ratio of 60/40.
