Technical Means

Our service employs a range of analytical techniques to determine the content and composition of lignin and its monomers. These include:

Thioacidolysis: A method that cleaves the ether linkages of lignin monolignols, yielding thioester derivatives that can be analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) .
Infrared Spectroscopy: Used to estimate the content of lignin and polyphenols in biomass .
Ultraviolet Spectroscopy: Employed to study the fundamental lignin subunits, such as guaiacol, 4-methylguaiacol, syringol, and 4-methylsyringol .
Klason Lignin Method: A three-stage process for more accurate determinations of hardwood lignin content.

Technical Classification

Analysis services are classified based on the type of biomass and the specific analytical needs of our clients. We offer:

Qualitative Analysis: Identifying the presence of lignin and its monomers in biomass.
