Lignocellulose is the most abundant carbohydrate source in nature and represents an ideal renewable energy source. Thermostable enzymes that hydrolyze lignocellulose to its component sugars have significant advantages for improving the conversion rate of biomass over their mesophilic counterparts. We

New soluble chromogenic substrates were prepared for specific and rapid assays of endo-1,4-beta-xylanases and endo-1,4-beta-glucanases. A soluble beechwood 4-O-methyl-D-glucurono-D-xylan was dyed with Remazol brilliant blue R, and hydroxyethylcellulose was coupled to Ostazin brilliant red H-3B. The assays are based on
