醭
U+91AD "醭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily denotes the layer of white mold or scum that forms on the surface of fermented liquids, such as soy sauce, vinegar, or wine, during the brewing process. It can also refer more generally to a white coating or film on other substances, often associated with spoilage or fermentation. In classical Chinese texts, the character is used in culinary and medical contexts to describe this visible microbial growth. Its radical is 酉 (wine/fermentation), and it is typically pronounced as "bú" in Mandarin.
