Fractional extraction and physico-chemical characterization of hemicelluloses and cellulose from sugar beet pulp

Comparison of atmospheric aqueous glycerol and steam explosion pretreatments of wheat straw for enhanced enzymatic hydrolysis

“…An intensive and sharp band at 1049 cm −1 in spectra A, B and C is attributed to the COC stretching typical of glucan and xylan. Peaks at 1425 cm −1 and 1382 cm −1 are due to CH and OH bending, and CH 2 and OH bending, respectively 38. In the anomeric region (950–700 cm −1 ), a small sharp band at 899 cm −1 in spectra A, B and C is characteristic of β‐glycosidic linkages.…”

Graded replacement of maize grain with molassed sugar beet pulp modulated ruminal microbial community and fermentation profile in vitro

“…However, the increased acetate concentration did not result in an elevated A:P ratio since the increased Bp levels also increased propionate fermentation. Substrates for propionate production include glucose, arabinose, xylose and, to a lesser extent, galactose, which are major components of Bp . As a result, dietary Bp inclusion might have positive effects on hepatic gluconeogenesis, for which propionate is the most important precursor .…”

“…Other applications of IR spectroscopy methods are focused on the characterization of hemicellulose and cellulose fraction obtained from sugar beet pulp ( Sun and Hughes, 1998 ). Furthermore, the degradation of beet pulps in the rumens of fi stulated goats has been investigated ( Robert et al , 1989 ).…”
