Background Due to the increasing demands of energy and depletion of fossil fuel, bamboo
is considered to be one of the most important renewable biological resources on the basis of …

The contents of hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin are important for moso bamboo
processing in biomass energy industry. The feasibility of using near infrared (NIR) …

Background During conversion of bamboo into biofuels and chemicals, it is necessary to
efficiently predict the chemical composition and digestibility of biomass. However, traditional …

Crop stalks are an important source of lignocellulosic biomass, and have been broadly
developed as one kind of renewable resources. Tissue compositional heterogeneity linked …

Bamboos, a group of non-timber grasses, offers a great promise for the ligno-cellulosic
biomass industry due to their very fast growth resulting rapid accumulation of lignocellulose …

To better understand the high recalcitrance of bamboo during bioconversion, the fine spatial
distribution of polymers in bamboo was studied with Imaging FTIR microscopy under both …

Capirona (Calycophyllum spruceanum (Benth.) K. Schum.) and Bolaina (Guazuma crinita
Lam.) are fast-growing Amazonian trees with increasing demand in timber industry …

Lignocellulosic components including hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin are the three
major components of plant cell walls, and their proportions in biomass crops, such as …

In this study, a model for prediction of lignocellulose components of agricultural residues has
been developed with Fourier Transformed Near Infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy data. Two …

Background Delignification pretreatments of biomass and methods to assess their efficacy
are crucial for biomass-to-biofuels research and technology. Here, we applied confocal and …
