  1. The crystalline cellulose amount was determined with the Updegraff cellulose assay. Measured amounts were normalized to the CWR. Values denote average ± SD (n = 10). Significance groups are indicated with the same letter in superscript and different letters represent significant differences at the 0.01 significance level (ANOVA, pairwise comparison with Holm correction)
