Physico-chemical characterisation of whole meal flours from three wild chickpea varieties and their technological performance in Gluten Free Bread by Ottavia Parenti, Neamtallah Assaf, Marcello Alinovi, Massimiliano Rinaldi, Augusta Caligiani, Emma Chiavaro

“…Significant differences were also found in protein content and techno-functional properties. Bread specific volume and crumb hardness were significantly affected by chickpea variety, with red varieties (RRC- and RSC-samples) revealing the lowest impact. 1H NMR proton molecular mobility significantly changed as a function of chickpea variety, and these differences might be associated to the different macroscopic bread quality. …”

Insight into the microbial diversity and community in the sacrificial pits of Sanxingdui site (Sichuan, China) by Ruru Chen, Zhenbin Xie, Qing Xiao, Chong Wang, Rui Wen

“…The microbial genomes were then identified and analyzed using the next-generation high-throughput sequencing.ResultsThe represented bacterial phyla were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, GAL15, Chloroflexi, Acidobacteriota, Methylomirabilota, Thermoplasmatota, Crenarchaeota, Gemmatimonadota, and Firmicutes, and the represented fungal phyla were Ascomycota, Mortierellomycota, and Basidiomycota. Further microbial functional analysis found that the bacterial genera Sphingopyxis, Limnobacter, and Streptomyces and the fungal genera Cladosporium, Acremonium, and Mortierella were concerned with the degradation of organic matter, while the genera Pseudomonas, Arthrobacter, Variovorax, Aspergillus, and Penicillium might be related to the biocorrosion of bronzes. …”
