Kinetics of Cellulose Digestion by Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 [PDF]
Growing cultures of Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 digested cellulose at a rapid rate, but nongrowing cells and cell extracts did not have detectable crystalline cellulase activity. Cells that had been growing exponentially on cellobiose initiated cellulose digestion and succinate production immediately, and cellulose-dependent succinate production could

Probing the molecular architecture of Arabidopsis thaliana secondary cell walls using two- and three-dimensional 13C solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy [PDF]
The plant secondary cell wall is a thickened polysaccharide and phenolic structure, providing mechanical strength to cells, particularly in woody tissues. It is the main feedstock for the developing bioenergy and green chemistry industries.

A comparative study of effects of microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvents pretreatment of rice straw on cellulose enrichment and enzymatic digestibility. [PDF]
Lignocellulosic biomass (LCB), such as agricultural residue rich in cellulose and hemicellulose, can serve as a feedstock for bioethanol production due to its environmental benefits.

Cellulose digestion by freshwater microcrustacea1 [PDF]
Representatives of three diverse families of Cladocera incorporated [14C(U)]cellulose with efficiencies of 2.3–11.5%, corrected for gut retention on the basis of chloroform‐ and methanol‐soluble label in tissue homogenates. This finding supports recent speculation that some detrital carbon may be used by consumers or affiliated symbionts without ...

Characterisation of cellulose-degrading organisms in an anaerobic digester
The recalcitrant nature of lignocellulosic biomass hinders efficient exploitation of this fraction for energy production. A better understanding of the microorganisms able to convert plant-based feedstocks is needed to improve anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic biomass.

Metagenomic Analysis Reveals New Microbiota Related to Fiber Digestion in Pigs
Making full use of high fiber and low-cost crop coproducts is helpful to alleviate the situation of people and livestock competing for crops. Digestion of dietary fibers in pigs is mainly through microbial fermentation in the large intestine.

Effects of Dietary Cellulose on the Basal Endogenous Loss of Phosphorus in Growing Pigs [PDF]
An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of cellulose concentration in diets containing no phosphorus (P) on the basal endogenous loss (BEL) of P in growing pigs.
