Laccase belongs to the polyphenol oxidase family and is very important in removing
environmental pollutants due to its structural and functional properties. Recently, the ability …

On the basis of its generally accessible I/II redox couple and bioavailability, copper plays a
wide variety of roles in nature that mostly involve electron transfer (ET), O 2 binding …

This review article aims to summarize the potential of using renewable natural resources,
such as lignin and tannin, in the preparation of NIPUs for wood adhesives. Polyurethanes …

Lignin, a renewable polymer derived from the lignocellulosic biomass represents more than
20% of the total mass of the Earth's biosphere. However, 98% of lignin is burned as a source …

Peroxidases, one of the key antioxidant enzymes, are widely distributed in nature and
catalyze oxidation of various electron donor substrates concomitant with the decomposition …

Furfural is a natural precursor to furan‐based chemicals and has the potential to become a
major renewable platform chemical for the production of biochemicals and biofuels …

There has been a rapid growth in research and innovation of bio-based adhesives in the
engineered wood product industry. This article reviews the recent research published over …

Laccases have received much attention from researchers in last decades due to their ability
to oxidise both phenolic and non-phenolic lignin related compounds as well as highly …

Laccases occur widely in fungi; they have been characterized less frequently in higher
plants. Here we have focused on more recent reports on the occurrence of laccase and its …

Price hikes in conventional fuels coupled with sustainability concerns result into growing
attraction towards lignocellulosic biomass conversion to biofuels. The hydrothermal …
