Extraction and characterization of original lignin and hemicelluloses from wheat straw

Original lignin and hemicelluloses were sequentially extracted with high yield/purity, using acidic dioxane/water solution and dimethyl sulfoxide, from ball-milled wheat straw. The acidic dioxane lignin fraction is distinguished by high beta-O-4' structures and by low amounts of condensed units (beta-5', 5-5', and beta-1'). Hemicelluloses contain arabinoxylans as the major polysaccharides, which are substituted by alpha-l-arabinofuranose, 4-O-methylglucuronic acid, acetyl group (DS = 0.1), and xylose at O-3 and/or O-2 of xylans. It was found that arabinoxylans form cross-links with lignins through ferulates via ether bonds, glucuronic acid via ester bonds, and arbinose/xylose via both ether and glycosidic bonds, respectively, in the cell walls of wheat straw. Diferulates are also incorporated into cross-links between lignin and hemicelluloses as well as lignification of wheat straw cell walls. The guaiacyl unit is considered to be a significant condensed structural constructor in extracted lignin and a connector between lignin and carbohydrates.     

蒸汽爆破预处理和微生物发酵对玉米秸秆降解率的影响

为了提高玉米秸秆的利用效率,首先对玉米秸秆进行蒸汽爆破预处理（压力2.5 Mpa,维压200 s）,然后再进行米曲霉发酵,研究物理和生物学处理对秸秆成分及相关酶活变化的影响。结果表明,蒸汽爆破使秸秆中纤维素、半纤维素和木质素的降解率分别达到8.47%、50.45% 和36.65% （p＜0.05）。爆破预处理的秸秆再经米曲霉发酵6 d后,秸秆中纤维素和半纤维素的降解率分别为27.89%和64.80% （p＜0.05）,发酵秸秆中的滤纸酶、羧甲基纤维素酶、淀粉酶和蛋白酶活力分别达到335.10、1138.92、1954.20和201.99 U/g。爆破预处理后进行米曲霉发酵,对于提高玉米秸秆的降解率具有非常重要的意义。     

CO2浓度升高对小麦秸秆性质、数量及其分解的影响

在江都FACE平台上观测了常N水平下大气CO2浓度升高对小麦秸秆数量和性质的影响,并利用稻季淹水培养试验研究了CO2浓度升高引起的小麦秸秆量和质的改变对其腐解和土壤微生物量碳的影响,结果表明:CO2浓度升高显著降低了麦秸中N含量,导致麦秸C/N和木质素/N比显著增加,但对麦秸其他生化组成——可溶物、半纤维素、纤维素、木质素和酚含量均无影响;CO2浓度升高引起的小麦秸秆性质改变对麦秸及其含C物质的分解均无显著影响,但显著减缓了含N物质的分解;若将收获的麦秸全部还田,CO2浓度升高引起的小麦秸秆量的增加也没有显著影响麦秸及其含C、N物质的分解。由于高CO2浓度导致的麦秸性质改变对土壤微生物量碳无显著影响,这也是CO2浓度升高引起麦秸性质变化幅度太小不足以影响麦秸及其含C物质分解的主要原因。     

小麦秸秆纤维素均相醚化制备羧甲基纤维素工艺优化

为了利用小麦秸秆通过均相反应制备羧甲基纤维素(CMC,carboxymethyl cellulose),采用氢氧化钠和过氧化氢回流加热法制备小麦秸秆纤维素。以加入氧化锌的氢氧化钠/尿素/硫脲体系为溶剂,采用冻融循环法溶解小麦秸秆纤维素,利用正交试验获得了该溶解体系的最佳组成。在溶解了小麦秸秆纤维素的氢氧化钠/尿素/硫脲/氧化锌的体系中,以氯乙酸钠为醚化剂制备CMC,并对其进行红外光谱分析和取代度(degree of substitution,DS)测定。结果表明:在固液比为1∶20 g/mL,质量分数为10%NaOH,反应温度为85℃,回流3.5 h和固液比为1∶30 g/m L,质量分数为3%H_2O_2,反应温度为85℃,回流3 h处理小麦秸秆,纤维素提取率最高为84.61%,同时能较好的脱除半纤维素和木质素;最佳溶解体系为:质量分数为7%NaOH,11%硫脲,5%尿素,0.05%氧化锌,0℃时,最大溶解度为2.880 1 g。红外光谱试验表明小麦秸秆纤维素与微晶纤维素特征吸收峰基本一致,醚化反应生成的CMC与商品CMC的特征吸收峰基本一致。CMC的取代度受纤维素用量、温度和氯乙酸钠与纤维素葡萄糖单元(AGU,anhydroglucose unit)的摩尔比影响,随纤维素用量和氯乙酸钠与纤维素AGU的摩尔比增大而提高,随醚化温度的增加先增大(55℃)后降低。研究结果为以小麦秸秆为原料,经NaOH和H_2O_2处理获得纤维素,溶解在加入氧化锌的氢氧化钠/尿素/硫脲体系中,与氯乙酸钠经过均相醚化反应合成取代度较高的CMC提供参考。     

Structural and thermal characterization of wheat straw pretreated with aqueous ammonia soaking

Production of renewable fuels and chemicals from lignocellulosic feedstocks requires an efficient pretreatment technology to allow ready access of polysaccharides for cellulolytic enzymes during saccharification. The effect of pretreatment on wheat straw through a low-temperature and low-pressure soaking aqueous ammonia (SAA) process was investigated in this study using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (Py-GC/MS), solid and liquid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and thermogravimetry/differential thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) to demonstrate the changes in lignin, hemicellulose, and cellulose structure. After treatment of 60 mesh wheat straw particles for 60 h with 28-30% ammonium hydroxide (1:10 solid/liquid) at 50 °C, sugar recovery increased from 14% (untreated) to 67% (SAA treated). The FTIR study revealed a substantial decrease in absorbance of lignin peaks. Solid and liquid state NMR showed minimal lignin structural changes with significant compositional changes. Activation energy of control and pretreated wheat straw was calculated according to the Friedman and ASTM methods and found to be decreased for SAA-treated wheat straw, from 259 to 223 kJ/mol. The SAA treatment was shown to remove significant amounts of lignin without strongly affecting lignin functional groups or structure.     

两株侧耳属真菌对小麦秸秆化学组分及瘤胃消化率的影响

小麦秸秆木质素含量高,蛋白质等营养物质含量低,作为反刍家畜的粗饲料营养价值低,饲料化利用受到限制。通过室内小麦秸秆固态发酵试验,研究了两株侧耳属真菌Tf1（Pleurotussajor—c4u）和JG1（PleurotusCornucopiaeRoll）对小麦秸秆细胞壁化学组分的降解、瘤胃消化率和粗蛋白含量的影响。结果表明,经菌株JG1、Tf1和两菌复合发酵21d的小麦秸秆,木质素降解率分别为28．20％、30．78％和38．41％,纤维素降解率分别为19．26％、19．28％和26．65％;48h干物质瘤胃消化率分别比未发酵秸秆提高了38．62％、44．81％和55．89％,中性洗涤纤维（NDF）消化率分别提高了38．91％、49．00％和63．08％;粗蛋白含量分别比未发酵秸秆提高了58．60％、69．53％和72．22％。表明菌株JG1和Tf1在选择性降解木质素,改善瘤胃消化率,提高粗蛋白含量方面的优势,而且两菌株复合发酵具有协同作用,与单菌发酵相比,木质素降解率、瘤胃消化率和粗蛋白含量都明显提高。     

Fractionation of bagasse into cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin with ionic liquid treatment followed by alkaline extraction

Lignocellulose materials are potentially valuable resources for transformation into biofuels and bioproducts. However, their complicated structures make it difficult to fractionate them into cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin, which limits their utilization and economical conversion into value-added products. This study proposes a novel and feasible fractionation method based on complete dissolution of bagasse in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C(4)mim]Cl) followed by precipitation in acetone/water (9:1, v/v) and extraction with 3% NaOH solution. The ionic liquid [C(4)mim]Cl was easily recycled after concentration and treatment with acetonitrile. (1)H NMR analysis confirmed that there was no obvious difference between the recycled [C(4)mim]Cl and fresh material. Bagasse was fractionated with this method to 36.78% cellulose, 26.04% hemicelluloses, and 10.51% lignin, accounting for 47.17 and 33.85% of the original polysaccharides and 54.62% of the original lignin, respectively. The physicochemical properties of the isolated fractions were characterized by chemical analysis, high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and (1)H and 2D (13)C-(1)H correlation (HSQC) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The results showed that the acetone-soluble lignin and alkaline lignin fractions had structures similar to those of milled wood lignin (MWL). The easy extraction of the noncellulose components from homogeneous bagasse solution and amorphous regenerated materials resulted in the relatively high purity of cellulosic fraction (>92%). The hemicellulosic fraction was mainly 4-O-methyl-D-glucuronoxylans with some α-L-arabinofuranosyl units substituted at C-2 and C-3.     

尿素硝酸铵调节碳氮比促进小麦秸秆堆肥腐熟

【目的】高温堆肥可以加快秸秆腐解并浓缩其养分含量,是秸秆综合利用的有效措施之一。通常采用畜禽粪便来调节秸秆堆肥的C/N比,但由于重金属和抗生素问题限制了其在高价值经济作物上的应用。为此选择绿色无污染的尿素硝酸铵溶液(UAN)作为氮素调理剂开展堆肥试验,为生产高品质秸秆有机肥提供科学依据。【方法】设置4个处理,按照UAN添加量由多到少分别将堆肥C/N调节为15、20、25和30,进行50d堆肥,监测堆肥过程中温度、pH、EC、有机碳、铵态氮、硝态氮、纤维素组成、种子发芽率指数等指标的动态变化,并综合判定堆肥腐熟效果。【结果】C/N25和C/N30的处理最高温度分别达到63.4℃和65.9℃,50℃以上高温持续时间分别为7d和8d,而C/N15、C/N20处理高温持续仅1~2d,未达到无害化处理要求。堆肥初始pH值随着UAN添加量的增大而升高,范围在6.79~7.94,堆肥后pH值范围在7.63~7.89,各处理间没有明显差异。堆肥后各处理有机碳含量下降了8.29%~13.5%,且C/N25、C/N30的处理有机碳降解率显著高于C/N15和C/N20的处理。全氮含量较堆肥初增加53.3%~83.7%。秸秆中有机物组成表现为纤维素>半纤维素>木质素,堆肥后半纤维素、纤维素和木质素含量分别较堆肥初下降了30.5%~50.9%、42.%~55.8%和15.3%~29.4%。堆肥过程中由氨气挥发造成的氮素损失率随着C/N比升高而降低,分别为34.9%、29.0%、22.1%和7.37%;堆肥过程中无机氮占总氮的比例逐渐降低,由初始的52.4%~75.8%下降到结束时的25.4%~63.1%,而对应有机氮的比例则较堆肥初提高了52.4%~66.0%,表明小麦秸秆堆肥中氮素的稳定性增强。经过50d的堆肥处理,C/N25和C/N30的处理种子发芽率指数均达到彻底腐熟(GI≥80%),C/N20的处理达到基本腐熟(GI≥50%),而C/N15的处理未腐熟。【结论】采用尿素硝酸铵溶液作为氮素调理剂可有效降低小麦秸秆堆肥C/N比,促进小麦秸秆腐解,以C/N30处理腐熟效果最好。     

Fractional isolation and physico-chemical characterization of hemicelluloses by a two-stage treatment from Haloxylon ammodendron and Elaeagnus angustifolia

The cell wall material of Chinese shrubs Haloxylon ammodendron and Elaeagnus angustifolia was fractionated by successive extractions with ethanol/H(2)O (60:40, v/v) under acidic conditions (0.2 N HCl) at 70 degrees C for 4 h, and 2% H(2)O(2) at pH 11.5 for 16 h, respectively. The sequential two-step treatment resulted in the dissolution of 83.9% and 87.6% of the original hemicelluloses from dewaxed H. ammodendron and E. angustifolia, respectively. Xylose, glucose, and galactose were the major sugar constituents in the two acidic organosolv-soluble hemicellulosic preparations. The two alkaline peroxide-soluble hemicellulosic fractions were shown to be composed primarily of xylose, comprising over 80% of the total sugars. The results also showed that the two alkaline peroxide-soluble hemicellulosic fractions were more linear and acidic, and had higher molecular mass and thermal stability than the two acidic organosolv-soluble hemicellulosic preparations. The 2% H(2)O(2) posttreatment did not result in any significant changes in the macromolecular structure of the isolated hemicelluloses. It is probable that lignin protects hemicelluloses and cellulose from being attacked by peroxide.     

酸-超声波预处理及糖化水解稻草研究

采用室内实验方法,研究了酸-超声联合预处理稻草对其化学组成以及糖化效果的影响,并与传统酸预处理法的效果进行了对比。结果表明,与未经处理的稻草相比,经酸-超声波处理的稻草其半纤维素、木质素含量最高分别减少了64．46％、62．19％,纤维素含量最高则上升了73．20％,而酸处理的稻草相应数值只能达到56．72％、59．90％及53．41％。同时分别对两种方法的稻草糖化的工艺条件通过正交试验进行了优化,得出两种方法的稻草最佳糖化条件均为：pH值为4．8,温度为45℃,酶浓度为20mg·g-1。在该条件下,对于酸一超声波预处理稻草,在糖化108h以后还原糖浓度稳定并达到最大值26．4g·L-1,而对于酸预处理稻草,在糖化120h以后还原糖浓度才稳定并达到最大值26．2g·L-1,且前者能比后者产生更多的葡萄糖以及更少的木糖,更有利于提高后续酒精发酵的效率。     

不同还田方式下北方旱作小麦秸秆腐解规律研究

为揭示不同还田方式下北方旱作小麦秸秆腐解规律,以小麦秸秆为试验材料,采用尼龙网袋法,于2014-2015年度在山西临汾保护性耕作长期定位试验区进行试验,设置秸秆还田旋耕(SRT)、秸秆覆盖免耕(SNT)2个处理,分析不同耕作方式下小麦秸秆的纤维素、半纤维素、木质素、有机碳、全氮含量以及秸秆腐解率、有机碳矿化率、全氮释放率的变化。结果显示,经过375 d的田间腐解,SRT秸秆腐解率为50%,SNT秸秆腐解率为31%。SRT秸秆的纤维素、半纤维素、木质素的平均腐解率分别为65%、45%、53%,SNT分别为56%、30%、39%;SRT秸秆有机碳的矿化率为57%,SNT为40%;SRT秸秆全氮素释放率为15%,SNT为36%。研究表明,SRT可加快秸秆腐解与组成成分的分解,SNT有利于秸秆氮素的释放,可减少农田氮投入。SNT秸秆有机碳矿化率低可减少农田碳循环速率,提高麦田固碳能力。本研究结果对我国北方旱作小麦秸秆还田管理具有一定的借鉴参考价值。     

Preparation and characterization of durum wheat (Triticum durum) straw cellulose nanofibers by electrospinning

Cellulose nanofibers from durum wheat straw ( Triticum durum ) were produced and characterized to study their potential as reinforcement fibers in biocomposites. Cellulose was isolated from wheat straw by chemical treatment. Nanofibers were produced via an electrospinning method using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as the solvent. The nanofibers were 270 ± 97 nm in diameter. Analysis of the FT-IR spectra demonstrated that the chemical treatment of the wheat straw removed hemicellulose and lignin. XRD revealed that the crystallinity of the cellulose was reduced after electrospinning, but nanofibers remained highly crystalline. The glass transition temperature (T(g) value) of the fibers was 130 °C, higher than that of cellulose (122 °C), and the degradation temperature of the fibers was 236 °C. Residual TFA was not present in the nanofibers as assessed by the FT-IR technique.     

Fractional and structural characterization of lignins isolated by alkali and alkaline peroxide from barley straw.

A sequential treatment of dewaxed barley straw with sodium hydroxide, different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, and potassium hydroxide/sodium borate degraded various proportions of the original lignin and solubilized different amounts of the original hemicelluloses. The isolated lignin fractions were subjected to comprehensive structural characterization by UV, FT-IR, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, and their chemical compositions were analyzed by alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation. All of the lignin fractions were typical of grass lignins and had weight-average molecular weights between 1750 and 2190. It was found that the peroxide treatment at low concentrations (< or =2.0%) resulted in a slight increase in the amount of carboxyl groups, whereas the treatment at a relatively high concentration of alkaline peroxide, such as at 3.0% H(2)O(2), led to a noticeable oxidation of the lignins, as shown by an increase of carboxyl groups. Moreover, the results obtained indicated that the successive treatments with alkali and alkaline peroxide under the conditions used did not significantly affect the beta-O-4 structures of lignins. Substantial amounts of etherified ferulic acids were cleaved by the sequential treatments with alkaline peroxide, as shown in the (13)C NMR spectra. The results underscore the structural differences between alkali- and alkaline peroxide-soluble lignins from barley straw.     

Studies of the lauroylation of wheat straw hemicelluloses under heating

Lauroylation of wheat straw hemicelluloses in the N, N-dimethylformamide/lithium chloride system under microwave irradiation was studied. The parameters optimized included lauroyl chloride concentration as the molar ratio of xylose unit in hemicelluloses/lauroyl chloride (1:1-1:4), 4-dimethylaminopyridine concentration (2-10%), reaction time (1-8 min), molar ratio of xylose unit in hemicelluloses/triethylamine (1:2), and reaction temperature (78 degrees C). The reaction efficiency was measured by the yield and degree of substitution (DS). Under an optimum reaction condition (molar ratio of xylose unit in hemicelluloses/lauroyl chloride 1:3, molar ratio of xylose unit in hemicelluloses/triethylamine 1:2, 5% 4-dimethylaminopyridine, 78 degrees C, 5 min), a DS of 1.63 was obtained. Changes in the structure of hemicelluloses were verified by FT-IR and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The results showed that the lauroylation occurred preferentially at the C-3 position of the xylose unit in hemicelluloses. The behavior of the lauroylated hemicelluloses was monitored by means of thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermogravimetric (DTG) analysis. It was found that the product with low DS had a lower thermal stability than the native hemicelluloses, whereas the lauroylated polymers with high DS showed a higher thermal stability than the unmodified hemicelluloses.     

秸秆干式厌氧发酵渗滤液回流技术研究

采用室内模拟试验方法,研究了秸秆干式厌氧发酵渗滤液回流量、回流方式对产气量的影响,分析比较了渗滤液的COD、VFA、pH变化以及其与产气率的相互关系。结果表明,在中温、底物浓度（TS）为18%条件下,发酵培养43 d,以0、0.2、0.4、0.6、0.8 L·d^-1的量回流,不同回流量处理间累积产气量差异不显著。底物浓度为20%、发酵84 d条件下,每天回流与产气趋势下降后回流以及两相法回流其总产气量较不回流对照分别提高了9.53%、23.13%、12.74%,其中以产气趋势下降后再回流的方式为最优。

  【目的】  秸秆腐解与元素转化涉及复杂的生物化学过程,提高土壤氮素水平是加速秸秆腐解和养分释放的关键措施。研究不同施氮水平下潮土中小麦秸秆腐解特性、养分释放特征及其结构组分变化规律,深入了解秸秆腐解过程与机制,为完善作物秸秆还田技术、实现秸秆资源的高效利用及农田可持续发展提供科学依据和技术支撑。  【方法】  本试验点位于河南省原阳县,土壤类型为潮土,种植制度为小麦–玉米轮作,以小麦秸秆为研究对象,设置0 (SN0)、180 (SN1) 和240 (SN2) kg/hm2 3个氮肥用量,进行187天的秸秆包填埋试验,利用超高分辨场发射扫描电镜 (SEM)、固态核磁共振 (13C-NMR) 等方法研究小麦秸秆腐解过程中的养分释放和结构组分动态变化规律。  【结果】  1) 小麦秸秆腐解呈现前期快后期慢的特征,前两周为快速腐解期,该阶段秸秆平均腐解率为46%,整个玉米季 (100天) 秸秆平均腐解率为71%;高氮营养环境对前两周的秸秆腐解率无显著影响;从第二周开始,施用氮肥处理加速了秸秆腐解,SN1和SN2处理秸秆腐解率平均高于SN0处理6个百分点,但SN1和SN2处理间无显著差异;秸秆碳释放率与秸秆腐解率变化趋势基本一致。2) 腐解187天后,秸秆氮磷钾养分最终释放率大小顺序为钾 (96%～97%) > 氮 (52%～86%) > 磷 (29%～45%),其中钾在前两周基本完全释放,而氮、磷释放率在后期有负增长现象。3) 纤维素、半纤维素腐解率与秸秆腐解规律基本一致,均表现出前期快后期慢的特点,而木质素则在中后期腐解较快;纤维素、半纤维素和木质素最终腐解率分别为78%～87%、86%～91%和66%～73%（187天后）。4) 扫描电镜结果显示,小麦秸秆结构逐渐遭到破坏,表面变得粗糙,断层增多,空洞增大,纤维束变得松散,形成近似网状结构;高氮处理下小麦秸秆表观结构受破坏程度大于不施氮处理。5) 核磁共振结果显示,不同有机碳官能团信号强度分布表现为:烷氧碳 (47.02%～60.13%) > 烷基碳 (11.41%～17.38%) > 双烷氧碳 (10.79%～13.31%) > 甲氧基碳/烷氮碳 (7.53%～12.02%) > 芳基碳 (2.70%～7.18%) > 羧基碳 (1.07%～2.60%) > 酚基碳 (0.75%～2.02%);腐解过程中烷基碳、甲氧基碳/烷氮碳、酚基碳和羧基碳相对含量显著增加,而烷氧碳相对含量显著降低。6) 相关分析表明,秸秆残余物所有有机碳官能团均与腐解率、碳释放率有显著或极显著相关性;有机碳官能团中只有烷氧碳、甲氧基碳/烷氮碳与氮释放率有显著相关性;烷氧碳、双烷氧碳与纤维素、半纤维素和木质素腐解率均呈极显著负相关,羧基碳和甲氧基碳/烷氮碳均与木质素腐解率呈现极高的正相关性。  【结论】  施用氮肥能够促进小麦秸秆腐解和碳释放,其效果在秸秆还田两周后才能显现出来;在腐解过程中,秸秆残余物中代表易分解碳水化合物的烷氧碳相对含量随腐解时间延长而不断降低,且占比均高于其它碳官能团,对指示秸秆腐解进程具有重要意义;固态核磁共振技术更有利于监测秸秆腐解过程中不同有机碳官能团结构变化,从而更深刻地认识秸秆腐解机制。     

Degradation of lignin in wheat straw during growth of the oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) using off-line thermochemolysis with tetramethylammonium hydroxide and solid-state (13)C NMR.

The oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is widely cultivated on wheat straw (Triticum aestivum); however, there is a need to better understand the relationship between the chemical composition of the compost and mushroom growth. Wheat straw was degraded over a period of 63 days by P. ostreatus during which time it was sampled at weekly intervals. Off-line thermochemolysis with tetramethylammonium hydroxide and solid-state (13)C NMR were then used in the molecular characterization of the undegraded wheat straw and the degraded samples. The degraded wheat straw samples had a lower proportion of syringyl- to guaiacyl-derived moieties and cinnamyl- to guaiacyl-derived moieties than the undegraded control. There were increases in both guaiacyl and syringyl acid to aldehyde ratios with composting time, which showed that side-chain oxidation has been mediated by P. ostreatus. The (13)C NMR spectra confirmed the increase in carboxyl content but indicated that the overall lignin and methoxyl contents remained relatively constant, although some nonsystematic variations were observed. The spectra also showed a decrease in amorphous noncellulosic polysaccharides in relation to the crystalline cellulose upon degradation.     

寒旱环境植物护坡力学效应与根系化学成分响应

该项研究以试验区两种生长期为6a的灌木植物柠条锦鸡儿、霸王为例,分析了根系中所含半纤维素、木质素、纤维素和果胶质4种主要化学成分及其含量,并探讨了根系力学强度与其化学成分及其含量变化之间的关系。结果表明:柠条锦鸡儿根系平均抗拉强度为28.36～34.75MPa,霸王为4.53～6.61MPa,即柠条锦鸡儿根系平均抗拉强度显著大于霸王,且这两种灌木根系所含的4种化学成分由多至少依次为半纤维素、木质素、纤维素、果胶质,其中柠条锦鸡儿根系半纤维素含量为17.8%～29.03%,木质素为3.41%～5.36%,纤维素为2.3%～2.79%,果胶质为1.45%～2.15%;霸王根系半纤维素含量为15.6%～23.04%,木质素为3.69%～4.89%,纤维素为2.1%～3.06%,果胶质为1.92%～2.37%。两种灌木根系纤维素含量与根径、根系抗拉强度之间均表现出一定相关性;霸王根系半纤维素含量与其根系根径、抗拉强度之间呈相关性;柠条锦鸡儿根系果胶质含量与其根径、根系抗拉强度间均呈相关关系。本项研究可为进一步分析植物根系力学强度及其效应与根系组成特性之间的变化关系提供理论依据。     

碳氮源对复合木质素降解菌木质素降解能力及相关酶活的影响

白腐真菌所具有的降解木质素能力源于其所产生的酶系统,碳源和氮源是其降解木质素和产酶的一个极为重要的影响因素。通过室内小麦秸秆固态发酵试验,研究了不同的碳、氮源对两株侧耳属真菌Tf1（P.pulmonarius）和JG1（P.cornucopiae）产酶活力、木质素降解和粗蛋白含量的影响。结果表明,Lip和MnP是参与复合木质素降解菌Tf1＋JG1降解小麦秸秆重要的木质素降解酶。以葡萄糖为碳源,酒石酸铵为氮源能显著提高复合木质素降解菌对木质素的降解能力,发酵9 d后小麦秸秆的失重率为14.87%,木质素含量为8.68%,木质素降解率为22.95%;粗蛋白含量为7.28%,比未发酵麦秸提高了36.84%（P〈0.05）;Lip和MnP活力分别为629.11 U.g-1和622.22 U.g-1。     

Heteronuclear single-quantum coherence nuclear magnetic resonance (HSQC NMR) characterization of acetylated fir (Abies sachallnensis MAST) wood regenerated from ionic liquid

An ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl), was used to dissolve Japanese fir (Abies sachallnensis MAST) wood. Milled woods prepared by planetary ball-milling for 8 h dissolved completely in [Bmim]Cl at 100 °C in 2 h. The dissolved woods were then subjected to in situ acetylation, and the fully acetylated woods were regenerated from [Bmim]Cl. (1)H-(13)C correlation heteronuclear single-quantum coherence (HSQC) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments were successfully conducted with the acetylated woods in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-d(6). The acetylated lignin and polysaccharide signals dispersed reasonably well on the 2D spectra. Characterization of the NMR signals for the whole cell-wall components, including lignin, cellulose, and hemicelluloses, was achieved by comparison with isolated lignin and commercial cellulose and hemicelluloses (arabinoxylan, galactomannan, and glucomannan). The procedure used here is applicable for the characterization of cell-wall components in various plant biomasses.
