Inter- and Intra-Molecular Charge Redistributions in H-Bonded Cyanuric Acid*Melamine (CA*M) Networks: Insight From Core Level Spectroscopy and Natural Bond Orbital Analysis.

In this work, we elucidate the electronic charge redistributions that occur within the cyanuric acid (CA) and melamine (M) molecules upon formation of the triple H-bond between the imide group of CA and the diaminopyridine group of M. To achieve this, we investigated 2D H-bonded assemblies of M, CA and CA*M grown on the Au(111) surface, using X-ray photoemission (XPS) and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopies. Compared to the homomolecular networks, the spectra of the mixed sample reveal core level shifts in opposite directions for CA and M, indicating a nearly complementary charge accumulation on the CA molecule and a charge depletion on the M molecule.

Exploring the diversity of native Lachancea thermotolerans strains isolated by sugary extracts from manna ash to modulate the flavour of sour beers.

The craft beer industry is becoming increasingly interested in the production of innovative beers. A novel approach, designated as "primary souring," employs diverse yeast species, including Lachancea thermotolerans, to produce sour beers. Furthermore, there is a growing interest in utilising unconventional yeasts to produce beers with distinctive flavours.

Exploring the Addition of Mango Peel in Functional Semolina Sourdough Bread Production for Sustainable Bio-Reuse.

Mango, a tropical fruit celebrated for its delightful fragrance and high nutritional value, generates significant waste during processing, with approximately 35-60% of the fruit being discarded. However, this waste contains valuable components, such as fibre, carotenoids, polyphenols, and other bioactive compounds. In an effort to repurpose mango peel, this study dehydrated it to create mango peel powder (MPP), which was then incorporated into sourdough bread to produce functional breads with enhanced nutritional value.
