  1. Monosaccharide composition (%) and recalculation to polysaccharides in the remaining residue. Data after each extraction (30 and 60 min, respectively) in totally three repeats using 1 M NaOH at 121 °C are shown. The cellulose and hemicellulose content was calculated from the monosaccharide composition as described in Table 2
