Sodium Chloride (NaCl) – Inoculant Profile
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Resin Yield | Low – minimal resin formation compared to other chemical or biological inoculants. |
| Fragrance Intensity | ⚪ Mild – faint woody scent, limited aromatic depth. |
| Chemical Composition | – Sesquiterpenes: Sparse |
- Chromones: Very low
- Phenolics: Minimal |
| Color of Resin | Pale to light brown – lacks richness seen in FeCl₃ or Fusarium treatments. |
| Mechanism | Causes osmotic stress to stimulate a minor wound-response. |
| Best Application Use | For experimental or stress comparison trials; not ideal for high-grade resin. |
| Tissue Residue Risk | ✅ Low – generally safe for surrounding tissues but not stimulatory enough for valuable resin. |
| Compatibility | Can be used as a baseline control or pre-conditioning agent in combination with other inducers. |
