At present, nano-carrier materials with antibacterial activity are of great significance. Due to the widespread resistance of many pathogenic microorganisms, it has seriously threatened human health. The natural antimicrobial substances extracted from fruits and vegetables can significantly improve their stability combined with nano-carrier materials. The resistance of pathogenic microorganisms will be substantially reduced, greatly enhancing the effect of active antimicrobial substances. Nanotechnology has excellent research prospects in the food industry, antibacterial preservation, food additives, food packaging, and other fields. This paper introduces nano-carrier materials and preparation techniques for loading and encapsulating active antibacterial substances in detail by constructing a nano-release system for active antibacterial substances. The antibacterial effect can be achieved by protecting them from adverse external conditions and destroying the membrane of pathogenic microorganisms. The mechanism of the slow release of the bacteriostatic active substance is also described. The mechanism of carrier loading and release is mainly through non-covalent forces between the bacteriostatic active substance and the carrier material, such as hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, van der Waals forces, electrostatic interactions, etc., as well as the loading and adsorption of the bacteriostatic active substance by the chemical assembly. Finally, its wide application in food and medicine is introduced. It is hoped to provide a theoretical basis and technical support for the efficient utilization and product development of bacteriostatic active substances.

Bashang suancai is one of the most wellknown traditional fermented vegetables in North China. The study examined the variations in bacterial diversity, physicochemical properties, and volatile flavor compounds (VFCs) of Bashang suancai over a 7-day fermentation period, utilizing Illumina NovaSeq sequencing and headspace solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). The leading bacterial phyla were Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Cyanobacteria, while the predominant bacterial species included Vibrio, Lactiplantibacillus, Cyanobacteriales, Weissella, and Latilactobacillus. The bacterial community diversity decreased significantly following 7 days of fermentation. The microbial profiles were markedly affected by pH, reducing sugar content (RSC), and salt content (SC). A total of 187 VFCs were identified from the specimens. Following 5 days of fermentation, the taste compounds achieved equilibrium, with isothiocyanates, alcohols, and esters predominating among the volatile molecules. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that a strong link between Latilactobacillus, Levilactobacillus, Lactiplantibacillus, Weissella, and Vibrio with the flavor of pickles. This study established a significant foundation for identifying strains that enhance taste development and improve the nutritional and sensory quality of Bashang suancai.

Introduction: Difenoconazole (DIFE) is a common pesticide used in citrus cultivation; excessive intake can cause neurological damage to the organism, and the existing colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strips cannot meet the requirements for the detection of citrus samples.Methods: Difenoconazole test strip was prepared based on the colloidal gold immunochromatographic technique (GICT), and its application in citrus samples was investigated; with colloidal gold (CG) as the probe, the optimization of GICT parameters, and the determination of reaction method, the immunochromatographic test strips for the detection of DIFE in citrus was developed, and the limit of detection (LOD), specificity, accuracy, and stability of the test strips were verified.Results: The results showed that the visual detection limit of the prepared colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strips was 0.2 mg/kg and the quantitative range was 0.06–0.6 mg/kg, and the test strips could specifically identify DIFE and have no cross-reaction with other common triazole pesticides. The detection method established in this study was verified by the GC–MS method, and the detection results achieved good consistency (R² > 0.98).Conclusion: The test strips developed in this study have good performance and can be used for highly sensitive detection of citrus samples.
