Second-generation feedstock, especially nonfood lignocellulosic biomass is a potential
source for biofuel production. Cost-intensive physical, chemical, biological pretreatment …

Lactic acid (LA) has broad applications in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics
industries. LA production demand rises due to the increasing demand for polylactic acid …

With advances in biotechnology, enzyme technologies have been increasingly applied to
pretreat lignocellulosic biomass before the production of pulp. There are several driving …

Pulp and paper manufacturing units effectuate large amounts of waste water, causing water
pollution. As the generated waste water consists perilous organo-chlorine compounds …

Xylanase-aided chlorine dioxide bleaching of bagasse pulp was investigated. The pulp was
pretreated with xylanase and followed a chlorine dioxide bleaching stage. The ATR-FTIR …

Efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose to fermentable sugars requires a complete
repertoire of biomass deconstruction enzymes. Hemicellulases play an important role in …

The outer surface of wheat straw (WS) plays a critical role for the penetration of chemicals in
the pulping production. In this study, we characterized the changes of outer surface before …

Abstract AGAMOUS (AG) MADS-box transcription factors have been shown to play crucial
roles in floral organ and fruit development in angiosperms. Here, we isolated a tomato …

Agro-industrial wastes are the most abundant renewable resource on earth and are
available in large quantities. However, the disposal of these wastes presents an increasing …

The worldwide availability of lignocellulosic wastes represents a serious environmental
challenge with potential opportunities. Xylanases are crucial in lignocellulosic bio …
