Reducing the sodium content in foods is complex because of their multidimensional sensory characteristics and the multifunctionality of sodium chloride. The aim of this study was to elucidate how food composition may influence in-mouth sodium release and saltiness perception. Lipoprotein matrices (LPM) were produced using milk constituents and characterized by means of rheological measurements, texture, and taste sensory profiles. Texture and taste perceptions were affected differently by variations in the salt level, dry matter, and fat contents. Composition and textural changes also modified temporal sodium release and saltiness perception recorded in five subjects, but the effects varied as a function of the salt content. The water content mainly appeared to influence the amount of sodium released, whereas saltiness perception was mainly related to fat content. Elasticity, coating, and granularity were found to be correlated with temporal sodium release and/or saltiness parameters.

In this paper, the effect of soybean isolate protein (SPI) content on the physicochemical properties and oxidative stability of chitosan-sodium tripolyphosphate (CS-STPP)-loaded fish oil capsules was investigated. The SPI/CS-STTP capsules formed after the addition of different amounts of SPI were larger in size and more homogeneous in morphology than the CS-STPP capsules, and the SPI was encapsulated on the surface of the CS matrix, altering the surface properties and morphology of the particles. The study of different CS-to-SPI blend ratios (1:0, 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2) showed that the water content of the microcapsules increased from 49.

The lily is a globally popular cut flower, and managing dormancy in lily bulblets is essential for continuous, year-round production. While nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to influence seed dormancy and germination, its role in dormancy release in lilies was previously unconfirmed. In this study, we investigated the effects of NO on dormancy release in lily bulblets using SNP and c-PTIO.

A novel organic-inorganic eutectic phase change material (PCM) based on sodium acetate trihydrate (SAT) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) was developed to meet the needs of heat recovery and building heating. Three kinds of PEG with different molecular weights were selected to form organic-inorganic eutectic PCM with SAT. The thermal properties of three series of SAT-PEG eutectic PCM were compared based on DSC results, focusing on the impact of PEG addition on the phase change temperature and enthalpy of SAT, as well as the melting uniformity.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX), a potent Site-1 sodium channel blocker (S1SCB), offers highly effective local anesthetic properties with minimal addiction potential. To fully leverage TTX's capabilities as a local anesthetic, it is crucial to develop a drug delivery system that balances its systemic toxicity with its therapeutic efficacy. Recent studies have shown that peptide mixtures, derived from fragments of Site-1 sodium channel proteins and enhanced with hydrophobic tails (designated MP1 and MP2), can self-assemble into nanostructures that exhibit remarkable sustained-release capabilities for TTX.

Slow-release hydrogel can effectively improve nutrient content of soil and reduce evaporation rate of the water. However, petroleum-based hydrogels will cause secondary pollution to soil. Herein, the nitrogen content of aminated lignin reached 7 % by Mannish reaction with microwave heating, and the influence of microwave heating on the aminated process of lignin was investigated.
