The factors that govern assembly of the gut microbiota are insufficiently understood. Here, we test the hypothesis that inter-individual microbiota variation can arise solely from differences in the order and timing by which the gut is colonized early in life. Experiments in which mice were inoculated in sequence either with two complex seed communities or a cocktail of four bacterial strains and a seed community revealed that colonization order influenced both the outcome of community assembly and the ecological success of individual colonizers. Historical contingency and priority effects also occurred in Rag1-/- mice, suggesting that the adaptive immune system …

Effect Of Salt Content On Physicochemical Properties And Antioxidant Activity During Post-Fermentation Of Douche, Wan Jun, Cheng Weiwei, Shen Xiaolu, Jiang Aimin

Food and Machinery

The impact of salt content on post-fermentation of douchi was studied. In the post-fermentation stage, 8%, 10%, 12% of salt were added for 30 days fermentation. The results showed that, with the increase of salinity, the total acids and pH decreased, the hardness and chewiness increased, which shallowed the color and declined the taste of douchi. The high salinity was bad for producing the total amino acid nitrogen and γ-PGA, and also inhibited the antioxidant activity of douchi. Finally, 8% of salt was considered to be the best, but the flavor remained to be improved.
