Characterization of residue from catalytic hydrothermal depolymerization of lignin
In this study, investigation of the conversion of lignin into its phenolic monomers using catalytic hydrothermal depolymerization was conducted. To reveal the reaction mechanism, both lignin and its residue were analyzed employing thermogravimetric ...

Cellulose oxidation by Laccase-TEMPO treatments [PDF]
In this work, laccase-TEMPO (Lac-T) treatments were applied to bleached commercial dissolving pulp in order to introduce carbonyl and carboxyl groups, which were found to improve dry and wet strength-related properties.

On the dynamics of the microfilament system in HeLa cells [PDF]
We measured the pools of unpolymerized and filamentous actin in homogenates of HeLa cells made in several different lysis buffers, as well as after treatment of cells with a variety of chemicals or trypsin, and after adenovirus (type 2) infection.

Oxidative Depolymerization of Kraft Lignin for Microbial Conversion [PDF]
The valorization of lignin is being increasingly recognized as crucial to improve the economic viability of integrated biorefineries. Because of its inherent heterogeneity and recalcitrance, lignin has been treated as a waste product in the pulp and paper industry, but new technologies are now being explored to transform lignin into a sustainable ...
