From: Lignin from hydrothermally pretreated grass biomass retards enzymatic cellulose degradation by acting as a physical barrier rather than by inducing nonproductive adsorption of enzymes

Fig. 6

Apparent surface abundance of lignin relative to cellulose (ASA-L/C) of the raw and hydrothermally pretreated corn stover (CS), Miscanthus giganteus stalks (MS), and wheat straw (WS) at different severity factors (log R0) as measured by peak area ratio of 1508/895 cm−1 using ATR-FTIR as published in our previous work [24].

Different letters (A, B, C, …) indicate significant statistical differences based on ANOVA (P ≤ 0.05)
