Summary: This study investigated the sterilization and culture conditions for Suaeda aralocaspica, a halophyte plant. By treating the seeds with ethanol and sodium hypochlorite or mercury chloride, the researchers obtained the optimal sterilization effect. The germination and seedling performance of S. aralocaspica varied under different culture conditions.

Summary: The study found that the periphytic species S. elongatus and C. infusionum exhibit different tolerance levels to metals (Fe and Mn) and NaCl, with C. infusionum showing greater resistance to Fe and Mn. Both species showed metal removal efficiencies of 42% and 65%, and 53% and 79% in river water, respectively.

Summary: Substituting NaCl with KCl in cooked spam-like products made from mechanically separated tilapia meat had effects on various quality characteristics, such as increased weight loss, fat and water exudation, and decreased hardness. Substitution levels between 15% to 45% showed higher sensory acceptance, with 15% substitution being the most suitable for optimal technological characteristics.

Summary: Bacterial cell filamentation occurs in response to sublethal stress in Listeria monocytogenes, leading to potential underestimation of viable cell counting. Filamentous cells can revert to normal morphology and show faster growth in limited nutrient media. The thermal resistance of filamentous cells increases, indicating higher stress tolerance and potential risk for rapid increase in colony-forming units after stress release.

Summary: Hypochlorite accidents are rare and there is a lack of accurate scientific literature reports. This study reported four accidents related to hypochlorite extrusion during dental treatments. The accidents occurred during irrigation and resulted in intracanal bleeding, ecchymosis, and facial swelling. Treatment with medication led to significant symptom improvement. Anatomic risk factors were identified as possible causes. After the accidents, clinicians used endodontic procedures without scientific evidence.

Summary: Rising salinity poses a significant threat to crop production, but exogenously-applied salicylic acid can alleviate the negative impacts of salinity on crops. A factorial pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of salicylic acid on baby corn under salt stress. The results showed that increasing salinity levels had detrimental effects on growth, physiological traits, and yield of baby corn, but seed priming with salicylic acid improved some of these parameters at moderate levels of salinity.
