An increasing demand for energy and depleting petroleum sources has elevated the need
for producing alternative renewable resources. Owing to the prominence of lignocellulosic …

Xylooligosaccharides (XOS), produced from lignocellulosic biomass (LCB), are short-chain
polymers with prebiotic activity which, in the last few decades, have gained commercial …

Sugarcane bagasse is a rich source of cellulose (32–45%), hemicellulose (20–32%) and
lignin (17–32%), 1.0–9.0% ash and some extractives. Huge amount of the generation of …

The hemicellulosic fraction recovery is of interest for integrated processes in biorefineries,
considering the possibility of high economic value products produced from their structural …

Biorefineries are an operational processing strategy similar to classic petroleum
biorefineries in the production of energy and products. However, the biorefineries use …

Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) are prebiotics derived from lignocellulosic materials presenting
important functional properties. Traditional methods of XOS production often require the …

This review was based on updated research on how to use brewer's spent grains (BSG).
The use of BSG was considered both in food, as an ingredient or using value-added …

Abstract Endo-1, 4-β-xylanases (EC 3.2. 1.8) are O-glycoside hydrolases that cleave the
internal β-1, 4-D-xylosidic linkages of the complex plant polysaccharide xylan. They are …

The development of lignocellulosic biorefineries requires a first stage of pretreatment which
enables the efficient valorization of all fractions present in this renewable material. In this …

In recent years, concerns about a good-quality diet have increased. Food supplements such
as prebiotics have great nutritional and health benefits. Within the diverse range of …
