Surface properties of xylan and xylan derivatives measured by inverse gas chromatography [PDF]

open access: yesColloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 2016
Abstract Xylan (the most common hemicellulose in wood and annual plants) and xylan derivatives have a very wide field of uses for which physico-chemical surface properties play an important role (e.g. in composites or barrier materials). In the present work, for the first time, inverse gas chromatography (at infinite dilution conditions) was used to ...

Breaking polyphenol–polysaccharide interactions: the promising role of natural deep eutectic solvents

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Food processing generates substantial amounts of byproducts rich in valuable bioactive compounds, particularly polyphenols, known for their antioxidant, anti‐UV, and antimicrobial properties. These molecules hold great potential in sectors such as food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Direct extraction of functional whitened lignocellulose from wood via isocyanate modification in water–ethanol mixture

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Direct extraction of lignocellulose from wood derivatives was achieved by introducing a bulky isocyanate substituent to lignin in a water–ethanol mixture. This process exploits the tunable solvent affinity of lignin to achieve its whitening, enabling the isolation of lignocellulose.

Xylooligosaccharide Production from Tobacco Stalk Xylan using Xylanase Streptomyces sp. BO 3.2

open access: yesMakara Journal of Science, 2015
Tobacco stalk (TS), which is one type of lignocellulosic material, has a xylan content of up to 21.9%. Lignocellulose can be used to produce xylooligosaccharides (XOs). XOs are dietary fibers that have prebiotic activity.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Almond Shell‐Derived Cellulosic Microfibres: Extraction, Characterisation and Applications in Sustainable Paper‐Based Packaging

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond

Deciphering Branched Galactomannan Structures via Multistage Ion Mobility MS and MSn Fragmentation (Multistage IMSn)

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Hemicelluloses are abundant carbohydrate components in plant cell walls. They play a crucial structural role in binding cellulose microfibrils, in addition to other biological functions. Their high structural variability directly influences their biological properties, making it important to establish a structure–function ...

Identification and characterization of diverse xylanases from thermophilic and thermotolerant fungi

open access: yesBioResources, 2006
Thirteen fungal isolates included in this study expressed multiple xylanase isoforms as observed by xylan zymograms of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and isoelectrofocussing (IEF) fractionated proteins. Eighty-three xylanases produced by these

Electrical Breakdown Analysis of Emerging Oil–Paper Insulation Systems

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This investigation addresses the effect of particulate additives on the electrical breakdown strength of the oil impregnated insulation paper system. The morphological complexity is addressed by converting data from scanning electron microscope images to a data set suitable for numerical simulation analysis. Then, by using the conventional oil‐

USING STREPTOMYCES XYLANASE TO PRODUCE XYLOOLIGOSACHARIDE FROM CORNCOB

open access: yesBiotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology, 2008
Streptomyces 234P-16 and SKK1-8 are xylanase-producing bacteria. Corncob xylan were extracted using acidifi ed method. Crude enzymes (produced by centrifuging the culture) were used to hydrolyze xylan from 2 varieties of corncob.
