The Atlantic horse mackerel ( Trachurus trachurus ) is a globally favored fish due to its abundance, nutritional value, and affordability, but it faces quality preservation challenges. To address this, this study aimed enhance value by creating low-salt smoked products with natural bioactive compounds from seafood forest sources. filets were divided into four groups: one as control, the others treated various extract solutions, specifically pine bark, mussels, microalgae. After 15 days of storage at 4°C, significant differences in properties observed. Moisture salt had an inverse relationship, decreasing moisture pH over time. Oxidation levels remained acceptable, although sensory was affected storage. Microbiological analysis uncovered high contamination certain samples specific points time, no pathogens such Salmonella spp. or Listeria monocytogenes detected. While microalgae most powerful antioxidant, performance hampered poor scores. On other hand, bark acceptable point view revealed some antimicrobial inhibition. Using antioxidants provides appealing solution for consumers seeking clean labels.

Maritime pine, scientifically known as Pinus pinaster, holds a vital role in Iberian Peninsula forests, primarily source of wood for panels, paper, and cellulose production. Recently, there has been growing interest utilising agroforestry by-products to yield valuable chemicals applications various sectors, including the food, pharmaceutical, bioenergy industries. This study aimed assess value primary by-product pinaster from Minho region northwestern Portugal, i.e., bark. The research extensively examined bark’s chemical thermal characteristics, ash content, extractives, lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, fatty acids, mineral composition. Additionally, analytical techniques like FTIR, SEM, DSC, DTG, XRD were used observe structure differences. results reveal that bark consists lignin (51.15%) holocellulose (46.09%), with extractives mainly soluble toluene–ethanol, followed by water, small amount them are ethanol. contained around 0.44% ash, heavy metals such Cd Pb not found. During degradation, experienced 10% mass loss at 140 °C. In terms crystallinity, showed similar percentages approximately 25.5%, while α-cellulose displayed highest crystallinity index 41%.

Abstract Soil property changes influence material transport from hillslopes to channels after the wildfire and may indirectly trigger debris flow initiation. This study investigates post‐fire soil evolution its role in hillslope erosion following 15 March 2024 Yajiang Fire, integrating field measurements with laboratory simulations quantify temperature‐ duration‐dependent their controls. Results demonstrate that wildfire‐driven organic matter alteration is governed predominantly by peak heating temperature not exposure duration. Post‐fire profiles are stratified into three thermal impact zones: (a) a high‐temperature zone (>600°C), characterized complete combustion; (b) water‐repellent (WR) (100–600°C), subdivided highly WR layer, an aggregate stability (AS)‐enhancement low layer; (c) unaffected (<100°C). The mobilized wind gravity, accumulate as dry ravel deposits, forming primary source of immediate flows. AS‐enhancement exhibiting improved stability, temporarily mitigates raindrop splash interrill underlying soils prior first rainfall event. However, this layer delays but does prevent deeper mobilization during subsequent intense runoff. These findings clarify thresholds controlling zonation, highlight mechanisms linking initiation, provide valuable data on processes.
