Limitation of cellulose accessibility and unproductive binding of cellulases by pretreated sugarcane bagasse lignin

Abstract Background The effectiveness of the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose in plant cell wall is strongly influenced by the access of enzymes to cellulose, which is at least in part limited by the presence of lignin. Although physicochemical treatments preceding the enzymatic catalysis significa...
