Carbohydrate Wastes to Chemicals (CtC): From Second‐Generation Sugars to Glycols
The Carbohydrate Wastes to Chemicals (CtC) project examined an alternative and sustainable route to the production of glycols with propylene glycol as the main product. Thereby, the utilization of carbohydrate‐containing residues as second‐generation sugars was researched as alternative biogenic feedstock from biomass.

Corn cob pyrolysis: A systematic literature review of methods and applications
Mapping the research landscape of corn cob pyrolysis. Abstractas The agricultural sector is experiencing a surge in waste generation due to population growth, creating an urgent need to convert byproducts into value‐added products. Maize (Zea mays L.), a leading global crop, produces significant byproducts, such as corn cob, which are often undervalued.

Effect of variety, growing region and growing season on digestible energy content of wheats grown in Western Australia for weaner pigs [PDF]
An experiment was conducted to examine the digestible energy (DE) content for weanling pigs in a cohort of wheats grown in Western Australia, and to establish relationships between DE content and their chemical composition.

Xylose as a Cataractogenic Agent.
SummaryYoung rats given a diet containing 35% xylose developed cataractous changes within approximately the same length of time as did litter mates receiving a similar diet containing 35% galactose. Controls receiving glucose showed no lenticular changes. It is suggested that the cataractogenic activity of sugars may be dependent upon certain molecular

Kinetics of Hydrothermal Furfural Production from Organosolv Hemicellulose and d-Xylose
Organosolv pulping processes are able to generate liquid hemicellulose fractions with a low cellulose and lignin content. Utilization of such streams is promising for production of high-value chemicals.

Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...

Structural studies of a fucogalactoxyloglucan from pinus radiata primary cell walls : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
1. The changes in carbohydrate composition of elongating Pinus radiata primary cell walls were investigated. In the hemicellulose B extracts, a large increase in the percentage of non-starch, non-cellulosic, glucose was found to occur on cessation of ...
