Slow dynamics in a model of the cellulose network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present numerical simulations of a model of cellulose consisting of long stiff rods, representing cellulose microfibrils, connected by stretchable crosslinks, representing xyloglucan molecules, hydrogen bonded to the microfibrils. Within a broad range

Spatial relationships between polymers in Sitka spruce: proton spin-diffusion studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The spatial arrangement of polymers in Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) was investigated by NMR proton spin-diffusion studies, supplemented by deuterium-exchange experiments monitored by FTIR spectroscopy.

Cell proliferation, cell shape, and microtubule and cellulose microfibril organization of tobacco BY-2 cells are not altered by exposure to near weightlessness in space [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The microtubule cytoskeleton and the cell wall both play key roles in plant cell growth and division, determining the plant’s final stature. At near weightlessness, tubulin polymerizes into microtubules in vitro, but these microtubules do not self ...

Inelastic behaviour of cellulose microfibril networks

open access: yesSoft Matter, 2018
Weak physical interactions between cellulose microfibrils play an important role in shaping the nonlinear rheological behaviour of their networks.

Mechanical adaptations of cleavers (Galium aparine) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
• Background and Aims Cleavers (Galium aparine) is a fast-growing herbaceous annual with a semi-self-supporting, scrambling-ascending growth habit. Mature plants often use upright species for support. It is common in hedgerows and on waste ground. This

THE SIZE OF THE CELLULOSE MICROFIBRIL [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1963
Recently the lateral width of the cellulose microfibril has been estimated as 30 A rather than about 150 to 200 A, by extrapolation of data from model shadowing experiments. The difference was attributed to a layer of metal deposited during shadowing.

Characteristics of Cellulose Nanofibrils from Transgenic Trees with Reduced Expression of Cellulose Synthase Interacting 1

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
Cellulose nanofibrils can be derived from the native load-bearing cellulose microfibrils in wood. These microfibrils are synthesized by a cellulose synthase enzyme complex that resides in the plasma membrane of developing wood cells.

Cellulosic materials as natural fillers in starch-containing matrix-based films: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this work, the different cellulosic materials, namely cellulose and lignin are analyzed. In addition, the starch-containing matrices (isolated starch and flour) reinforced with cellulosic materials to be used in packaging applications are described ...

Plant cell walls: impact on nutrient bioaccessibility and digestibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cell walls are important structural components of plants, affecting both the bioaccessibility and subsequent digestibility of the nutrients that plant-based foods contain.
