Abstract: s: The influence of clarification and main physical chemistry ingridient of waxberry wine with chitosan treatment was studied. The result showed that 0.06g/L chitosan could increase transmittance of waxberry dry wine from 61.2% to 93.4 %, while 0.07g/L chitosan could increase transmittance of waxberry rum wine from 67.5% to 84.0 %, both of them showed ideal stability; The transmittance of waxberry wine with different sugar content was different; Chitosan can adsorb mostly yellow coloring matter of wine; Flocculation can be formed bigger and faster than that of bentonite, it influences weakly on main physical chemistry ingridient and amino acid of wine, while the dosage of chitosan was only 5%~10% of bentonite.

Key words: waxberry wine, chitosan, clarification
