AN1091: Determination of Uronic Acids and Wood Sugars in Wood-Based Hydrolysates: Uronic Acid Method

Instrument Type: IC

Wood, grass, and other lignocellulosic biomass are emerging as the preferred sources for biofuel and biochemical production. Compositional analysis of plant derived material is crucial for maximizing the yield of biofuel production. This record shows an HPAE-PAD Method that uses the Dionex CarboPac PA200 column to determine uronic acids in wood hydrolysates.

AN1091: Determination of Uronic Acids and Wood Sugars in Wood-Based Hydrolysates: Comprehensive Method

Instrument Type: IC

Wood, grass, and other lignocellulosic biomass are emerging as the preferred sources for biofuel and biochemical production. Compositional analysis of plant derived material is crucial for maximizing the yield of biofuel production. A single HPAE-PAD method, which uses the Dionex CarboPac PA20 column, can be used for the simultaneous determination of mono- and disaccharides and uronic acids.
