This paper studied the effect of different facters on the stability of allicin.The results showed:The allicin was the most stable at the pH 3~5 and unstable at the pH 8~11;The allicin could decompose under high temperature especially when temperature is higher than 100 ℃;solvent and vegetable oil could stabilize allicin well;The sugar could make allicin more stable especially β-CD and soluble starch;Adding 0.5 to 1 percent of vitamin C could make allicin more stable.
