Xylan extraction from pretreated sugarcane bagasse using alkaline and enzymatic approaches
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background New biorefinery concepts are necessary to drive industrial use of lignocellulose biomass components. Xylan recovery before enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucan component is a way to add value to the hemicellulose fraction, which can be used in ...

Developing pericarp of maize: a model to study arabinoxylan synthesis and feruloylation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Cell walls are comprised of networks of entangled polymers that differ considerably between species, tissues and developmental stages. The cell walls of grasses, a family that encompasses major crops, contain specific polysaccharide structures such as ...

A new synergistic relationship between xylan-active LPMO and xylobiohydrolase to tackle recalcitrant xylan [PDF]
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020 Abstract Background Hemicellulose accounts for a significant part of plant biomass, and still poses a barrier to the efficient saccharification of lignocellulose. The recalcitrant part of hemicellulose is a serious impediment to the action of cellulases, despite the use of xylanases in the cellulolytic cocktail mixtures.
