Lignocellulosic nanofibers from triticale straw : the influence of hemicelluloses and lignin in their production and properties
(Elsevier, 2017-05-01)
The present work aims to determine the influence of hemicellulose and lignin content in the production of lignocellulosic nanofibers (LCNF) from triticale straws. Triticale straws were digested and then gradually delignified, ...
Hemicellulose extraction from slash pine sawdust by steam explosion with sulfuric acid
(Elsevier, 2017-12-01)
One of the main obstacles to the development of advanced forest biorefineries is the optimal fractionation of the plant biomass. The aim of this work was to design a two-stage process for the fractionation of slash pine ...
Strategy for biological co-production of levulinic acid and polyhydroxyalkanoates by using mixed microbial cultures fed with synthetic hemicellulose hydrolysate
(Elsevier, 2020-05)
Hemicellulose hydrolysates (HH), which could be an interesting carbon source to feed mixed microbial cultures (MMC) able to accumulate high value-added compounds. This research focused on the evaluation of a culture strategy ...
Hydrothermal treatment of Eucalyptus wood: Effects on Ion permeability and material removing
(Elsevier Science, 2017-10)
Hemicelluloses, the second most abundant polysaccharides in nature after cellulose, can be used for hydrogels, in packaging-films, or biomedical materials, among other purposes. In the case of eucalyptus wood, glucuronoxylans ...
Alkali-peroxide extraction of xylan from sugar cane bagasse: Characteristics and film forming capacity
(Elsevier Science, 2020-03)
This work analyzes the main characteristics of hemicellulose alkali and peroxide/alkali extracted from sugar cane bagasse and precipitated by 1:1 ethanol/liquor ratio and studies the influence of the chemical charge on ...
Alkali-peroxide treatment of sugar cane bagasse. Effect of chemical charges on the efficiency of xylan isolation and susceptibility of bagasse to saccharification
(Springer, 2020-05)
Sugar cane is a promising raw material for the extraction of hemicelluloses. An alkali treatment of sugar cane bagasse under proper conditions followed by a precipitation using a reasonable quantity of ethanol can be an ...
Degradación y utilización de la hemicelulosa contenida en especies forrajeras por Pseudobutyrivibrio ruminis y Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivoransDegradation and utilization of hemicellulose from species forage by Pseudobutyrivibrrio ruminis and Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans
(Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2015-08)
Este estudio fue desarrollado para determinar la degradación y utilización de la hemicelulosa contenida en diferentes forrajes por dos cepas bacterianas (P. xylanivorans 2 y P. ruminis 153), aisladas del rumen de caprinos ...
Changes in apoplastic peroxidase activity and cell wall composition are associated with cold-induced morpho-anatomical plasticity of wheat leaves
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-01)
Temperate grasses, such as wheat, become compact plants with small thick leaves after exposure to low temperature. These responses are associated with cold hardiness, but their underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. ...
Cell wall disassembly events in boysenberry (Rubus idaeus L. × Rubus ursinus Cham. & Schldl.) fruit development
(Csiro Publishing, 2007-12)
Boysenberry fruit was harvested at five developmental stages, from green to purple, and changes in pectin and hemicellulose solubilisation and depolymerisation, polymer neutral sugar contents, and the activities of cell ...
Hydrothermal treatments applied to agro- and forest- industrial waste to produce high added-value compounds
(North Carolina State University. Department of Wood and Paper Science, 2017-01-01)
Agro- and forest-industrial wastes are abundant and low cost sources of carbohydrates and phenolic compounds, which can be converted into biofuels, biomaterials, and high added-value compounds by different pathways in small ...
