Recent advances in lignin valorization with bacterial cultures: microorganisms, metabolic pathways, and bio-products

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Lignin is the most abundant aromatic substrate on Earth and its valorization technologies are still under developed. Depolymerization and fragmentation are the predominant preparatory strategies for valorization of lignin to chemicals and fuels. However,

Expression of a bacterial 3-dehydroshikimate dehydratase reduces lignin content and improves biomass saccharification efficiency. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Lignin confers recalcitrance to plant biomass used as feedstocks in agro-processing industries or as source of renewable sugars for the production of bioproducts. The metabolic steps for the synthesis of lignin building blocks belong to the shikimate and

Applicability of Recombinant Laccases From the White-Rot Fungus Obba rivulosa for Mediator-Promoted Oxidation of Biorefinery Lignin at Low pH

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Utilization of lignin-rich side streams has been a focus of intensive studies recently. Combining biocatalytic methods with chemical treatments is a promising approach for sustainable modification of lignocellulosic waste streams.

Boosting landfill gas production from lignin-containing wastes via termite hindgut microorganism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Lignocellulose comprises a significant portion of municipal solid waste (MSW) - 40-70% in developed countries, including paper, wood, and yard waste. Cellulose and hemicellulose are often shielded by lignin, posing a barrier to waste decomposition and ...

Vessel-specific reintroduction of CINNAMOYL-COA REDUCTASE1 (CCR1) in dwarfed ccr1 mutants restores vessel and xylary fiber integrity and increases biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Lignocellulosic biomass is recalcitrant toward deconstruction into simple sugars due to the presence of lignin. To render lignocellulosic biomass a suitable feedstock for the bio-based economy, plants can be engineered to have decreased amounts of lignin.

Fractionation of CIMV wheat straw lignin as an approach for promoting it interaction with isocyanates and characteristic of products obtained [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The reactivity of CIMV lignin fractions with MDI has been investigated in extra dry dioxane (DOX) in argon atmosphere at 25 degrees of Celsius, using FTIR spectroscopy (absorbance band at 2273 cm^-1) for monitoring the NCO group disappearance during ...

Performance of Ceriporiopsis SP. in the Treatment of Black Liquor Wastewater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
High amounts of black liquor wastewater are generated from bioethanol production by using oil palm empty fruit bunches. It contains an alkaline solution (NaOH), so it is quite toxic for aquatic ecosystems if discharged directly into waters.

Lignin–carbohydrate complexes: properties, applications, analyses, and methods of extraction: a review

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
The complexity of lignin and hemicellulose segmentation has been known since the middle of the ninetieth century. Studies confirmed that all lignin units in coniferous species and 47–66% of lignin moieties in deciduous species are bound to hemicelluloses
