Acetate and 3-HP were quantified using an Ultimate 3000 high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system (Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). To separate the metabolites, Aminex HPX-87H (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Richmond, CA, USA) was used with 5 mM H2SO4 solution as a mobile phase (0.6 mL/...
Samples were irradiated in 100 mL cylindrical quartz vessels 1 (40 mm diameter) at atmospheric pressure without air access. The reaction vessels were filled by 60% at an average packing density of 0.15 g·mL−1. The uniformity of absorbed dose in bulk of cellulose was provided due to low...
Firstly, 1.5 g xylan was dispersed in ultrapure water (30 mL) by stirring before being transferred to stainless steel autoclaves (SLM-50). The hydrothermal reaction was carried out in a furnace under 600 rpm at 240 ◦C for 6 h. After cooling to room temperature, thoroughly washing with...
