This study, grounded in the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) theoretical framework, examines the impact of digital infrastructure on the productivity of Tibet's cultural industry from 2011 to 2021. It aims to uncover how the innovative allocation of production factors can enhance new-quality productivity. The core aspect of new-quality productivity is the improvement of TFP, with digital infrastructure promoting the cultural industry's development by optimizing industrial agglomeration, improving logistics efficiency, and reducing the urban-rural consumption gap.

The study investigated the impact of low-dose sodium nitrite on yak meat color and mitochondrial functional characteristics during the wet curing. The results showed that sodium nitrite significantly enhanced the redness ( value) of yak meat by increasing the activities of mitochondrial complexes I, II, III and IV, which are critical for electron transport and aerobic respiration. Additionally, sodium nitrite reduced mitochondrial swelling and membrane permeability, and slowed the production of lipid oxidation products, indicating protective effects against mitochondrial damage and preserving mitochondrial integrity.
