SIMPLIFIED DETERMINATION OF LIGNIN CONTENT IN HARD AND SOFT WOODS VIA UV-SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF BIOMASS DISSOLVED IN IONIC LIQUID

SIMPLIFIED DETERMINATION OF LIGNIN CONTENT IN HARD AND SOFT WOODS VIA UV-SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF BIOMASS DISSOLVED IN IONIC LIQUID

A new simple and safe method for quantifying lignin content in lignocellulosic biomass is described. The approach consists of measuring the absorbance of a solution of whole biomass dissolved in the ionic liquid 1-n-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium chloride, [Bmim][Cl], at 440 nm via ultraviolet- (UV-) vi...
