The study investigated the effect of different sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations (10%, 15%, and 20%) on the ripening fermentation of Pixian-Douban, a traditional fermented condiment. The results showed that NaCl affected the dynamics of physicochemical parameters, volatile components, fatty acids, amino metabolites, organic acids, and microbial composition, and their dynamic modes were different. After 253 days fermentation, the 10% NaCl Pixian-Douban had significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels of total organic acids (20,308.25 mg/kg), amino metabolites (28,144.96 mg/kg), and volatiles (3.36 mg/kg) compared to 15% and 20% NaCl Pixian-Douban. Notably, the possible health risk associated with high concentration of biogenic amines in 10% NaCl Pixian-Douban is of concern. Moreover, correlation analyses indicated that the effect of NaCl on the quality of Pixian-Douban may be mainly related to bacteria. This study deepens the knowledge about the role of NaCl in ripening fermentation of Pixian-Douban and contributes to develop low-NaCl Pixian-Douban product.

Currently, high-salt diets have become one of the world's biggest dietary crisis and long-term high-salt diets are seriously detrimental to human health. In response to this situation, the present study proposed a saltiness enhancement strategy using alginate, which is a dietary fibre from brown algae and has many health benefits, such as regulating intestinal microbiota, anti-hypertension and anti-obesity. The comparison of alginates with different viscosities showed that alginate of 1000-1500 cps at a concentration of 1.

The physicochemical properties of emulsions based on poloxamers (triblock copolymers of a hydrophobic polyoxypropylene chain and two hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chains) depend on the composition and preparation method. This study examined the impact of poloxamer P188 concentration, autoclaving mode, heating, and salt presence on the viscosity, particle size distribution, and morphology of particles using viscometric analysis, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was shown that sample preparation affects the particle size and morphology but not the chemical composition of P188.

Biosurfactants/bioemulsifiers (BSs/BEs) can be defined as surface-active biomolecules produced by microorganisms with a broad range of applications. In recent years, due to their unique properties like biodegradability, specificity, low toxicity, and relative ease of preparation, these biomolecules have attracted wide interest as an eco-friendly alternative for several industrial sectors, escalating global microbial BS/BE market growth. Recently, strain 1B, a bacterium with significant biotechnological potential, well known for its biodesulfurizing properties, carotenoid production, and broad catabolic range, was described as a BS/BE producer.

Background: The in vitro propagation of halophytes is innovative perspective for sustainable agriculture, conservation of natural plants and essential raw materials for industry due to increasing soil salinization and decreasing freshwater availability. Sarcocornia fruticosa, a halophytic plant, may hold promise for biosaline production systems and achieve bioactive products. Understanding the salt tolerance mechanisms of halophytes through elicitors can enhance the production of secondary metabolites, such as phenolics and flavonoids, under saline environment.
