A new book details how lignin once protected algae from UV radiation, then later in evolutionary time became a structural support for trees. The following is an excerpt from When the Earth Was Green: ...

The use of kraft lignin, a renewable material with its chemical modification, is an opportunity to develop advanced and sustainable materials to reduce the negative impact of agrochemicals on the ...

The lake water likely contained polyphenolic compounds from the degradation of lignin-containing plant matter. It inspired him to create a simple conditioner based on lignin. Lignin has ...

PURE cellulose is generally regarded as being perfectly insoluble in water, but experiments recently carried out in this laboratory indicate that pure cellulose is slightly soluble in pure water.

The remaining glucose in the pellet was measured with the anthrone method. Acetyl bromide soluble lignin content was used as a proxy for lignin content (Fukushima and Hatfield, 2004). For this ...

Compared to glycoside hydrolase, the measurement of LPMO catalytic properties is not as straightforward. Firstly, only small proportions of soluble aldonic acid/ketoaldose oligomers are released after ...
