Rice is a salt-sensitive crop. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of salinity at flowering stage on physiological traits and yield of landrace rice. The experiment design was 4*10 Factorial in RCBD with 4 replications. Factor A was four salinity levels: control, 6, 12 and 16 dS/m; Factor B was 10 rice varieties. Data were collected on physiological traits and grain yield. The results showed that increasing salinity level decreased rice yield. The highest yield reduction was found when the rice received salt stress at 16 dS/m. In addition, rice varieties showed different yield performance when exposed to salt stress. In this found that Hom Yai variety had the lowest yield reduction when grown at 16 dS/m salinity level and did not differ from salt tolerant check variety.

This study aims to develop alginate-based hydrogels reinforced with carrageenan and gellan gum as composite materials for oral drug delivery. Alginate, a naturally derived polymer from brown algae, forms a gel upon exposure to cations such as calcium ions, enhancing the hydrogel’s structural integrity. Carrageenan and gellan gum, both polysaccharides, further improve stability and encapsulation efficiency. This research investigates the physical properties, mechanical strength, encapsulation capacity, and swelling behavior of hydrogel beads under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The findings are expected to demonstrate that incorporating carrageenan and gellan gum enhances the durability and stability of hydrogel beads while enabling controlled release of active compounds in the gastrointestinal tract. These advanced hydrogel beads hold significant potential for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries as effective oral delivery systems for bioactive substances.

Threadfin breams is an economically important fish that can be found in fisheries in both the Gulf of Thailand and Andaman Sea and is cheap. In addition, the consumption of raw fish as sashimi is increasingly popular in Thailand. Therefore, it is necessary to promote its consumption to increase its value. This study investigated the preservation of threadfin breams (N. furcosus) for raw or sashimi consumption. The preservation of threadfin breams consisted of Ikejime (K) and cold seawater (S) methods, and the preservation of the fish by Gutting (G) and whole (W) and storing for 3 days on ice (I) or in a refrigerator (F). The freshness quality of threadfin breams was evaluated by sensory, physicochemical (TVB-N, TMA-N and pH), freshness index (Ki-value) and microbiological methods. It was found that after being stored for 3 days, the KGF group of threadfin breams had the highest overall sensory score, which was 8.36±0.80 points, and the KWI, SWI and SWF groups of threadfin breams had the lowest overall sensory scores, which were 8.13±0.77, 8.13±0.77 and 8.13±0.81 points, respectively. And the overall sensory scores of all experimental groups of fish increased significantly (p<0.05). The TVB-N value of threadfin breams in KGF group had the lowest TVB-N value, which was 1.37±0.93 mg nitrogen/100 g sample. The threadfin breams in SGI group had the highest TVB-N value, which was 2.36±1.15 mg nitrogen/100 g sample. The TVB-N of fish in all experimental groups increased significantly (p<0.05). The TMA-N value of threadfin breams in KGF group had the lowest TMA-N value, which was 1.56±0.88 mg nitrogen/100 g sample. The threadfin breams in SWF group had the highest TMA-N value, which was 2.17±1.22 mg nitrogen/100 g sample. The TMA-N of fish in all experimental groups increased significantly (p<0.05). The pH value of threadfin breams in KGF group had the lowest pH value, which was 6.40±0.12. The threadfin breams in SWF group had the highest pH value, which was 6.78±0.25. The pH of fish in all experimental groups increased significantly (p<0.05). Ki value The threadfin breams in KGF group had the lowest Ki value, which was 9.05±0.73%. The threadfin breams in KWI group had the highest Ki value, which was 12.88±4.19%. The Ki value of all experimental groups of fish increased without statistical significance (p>0.05). In terms of freshness quality in microbiology, it was found that in all experimental groups, Salmonella spp., S. aureus, B. cereus, C. perfringens and E. coli were found in all experimental groups of threadfin breams. All types of microorganisms in all groups of threadfin breams increased with statistical significance (p<0.05). When compared with the freshness quality criteria in terms of sensory, chemical, physical, freshness index and microbiology, it was found that all groups of threadfin breams were very fresh and suitable for raw consumption during the preservation and storage for 3 days. After 3 days of storage, the threadfin breams should be consumed cooked because the freshness quality of the fish is not suitable for raw consumption due to the increase in various parameters. The increase in various parameters is due to the deterioration of the fish and the activities of microorganisms. Therefore, threadfin breams is suitable to promote raw consumption within 3 days of storage. In addition, fish preservation, especially by Ikejime method, then cutting open the belly and storing in the refrigerator, can help improve the freshness of the fish. The results of this study can be used to develop techniques for preserving fish after capture for fishermen and can promote the increase in the value of threadfin breams in the future.
