Preparation of Sulfated Xylans and Its in Vitro Proliferation of Probiotics
This study aimed to determine the effect of sulfated xylans on the growth of probiotics. Xylan (Xyl) was chemically modified using the sulfamic acid-N,N-dimethylformamide method to produce sulfated xylan (SXY).

Optimizing yield and chemical compositions of dimethylsulfoxide-extracted birchwood xylan
Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) extraction is commonly used to study the chemical structures of original xylan in the plant cell wall, since the DMSO can preserve the original structure of the xylan as much as possible during the extracting process. In addition,

The distribution of Lignin and Xylan in the Inner and Surface Layers of the Fiber from Eucalyptus Kraft Pulp and its Effects on Oxygen Delignification [PDF]
The chemical structure and composition of lignin and hemicellulose, as well as the distribution between inner and outer layers of fiber, can adversely affect bleaching operations or fiber-fiber bond on pulp and, consequently the papermaking process ...

An Update on Xylan Synthesis [PDF]
Plant cell walls are complex structural frameworks that affect cell shape and differentiation, and that protect the plant cell against environmental conditions (Scheller and Ulvskov, 2010). One of the major components of the wall is the hemicellulosic polysaccharide xylan, which is composed of a linear β-(1,4)-linked D-xylosyl (Xyl) backbone with ...

The Xylan of Rhodymenia palmata [PDF]
Barry and Dillon1 reported the isolation from the red seaweed Rhodymenia palmata of a polysaccharide which gave D-xylose on hydrolysis. Our special interest in xylans2 has led us to investigate this substance more fully as part of the research programme of the Scottish Seaweed Research Association.
