A comparison has been made between the
hydrolysis of the hemicellulose in young Eucalyptus regnans F. v. M. and
the hemicellulose in holocellulose prepared from the same wood sample. The
rates of hydrolysis of the pentosan and uronic acid constituents have been
compared. The results have been interpreted in terms of an ester in which uronic
acid is thought to be involved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
