Cell walls, prepared from the stems of wheat, maize, lucerne and rape and from timothy grass, were degraded using a commercial cellulase enzyme preparation. Timothy and lucerne were extensively degraded (60-70% loss of dry matter) while dry matter losses from the more ligniΓΌed maize, rape and wheat
Samples of different wood species varying in age from 900 to 4400 years and stored during this period under different conditions were analyzed for their lignin content. Lignins isolated from the samples were investigated by IR-spectroscopy. It could be shown that lignin in wood undergoes oxidative c
