Binding prediction of multi-domain cellulases with a dual-CNN [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Cellulases hold great promise for the production of biofuels and biochemicals. However, they are modular enzymes acting on a complex heterogeneous substrate. Because of this complexity, the computational prediction of their catalytic properties remains scarce, which restricts both enzyme discovery and enzyme design.

Valorization of byproducts of hemp multipurpose crops: short non-aligned bast fibers as a source of nanocellulose [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Nanocellulose was extracted from short bast fibers, from hemp (Cannabis Sativa L.) plants harvested at seed maturity, non-retted, mechanically decorticated in a defibering apparatus giving non-aligned fibers. A chemical pretreatment with NaOH and HCl allowed the removal of most of the non-cellulosic components of the fibers. No bleaching was performed.
