Fig. 1From: Lignin from hydrothermally pretreated grass biomass retards enzymatic cellulose degradation by acting as a physical barrier rather than by inducing nonproductive adsorption of enzymesAdsorption of Cellic® CTec3 with 20 mg protein/g DM loading on the lignin-rich residues (10 mg/ml) isolated from corn stover (CS), Miscanthus × giganteus stalks (MS), and wheat straw (WS) that were hydrothermally pretreated at different severity factors (log R0). Data points represent average and standard deviation from three experimental replicates. Different letters (A, B, C, …) indicate significant statistical difference based on ANOVA (P ≤ 0.05)Back to article page
