Biomass carbohydrate composition
During this biomass carbohydrate analysis, the sample is first hydrolyzed, after which the acid-insoluble fraction is filtered and monomeric sugars are analyzed with ion chromatography or high-performance liquid chromatography, depending on the standard.
Monomeric sugars included in the analysis are glucose, mannose, galactose, xylose, and arabinose. Results are given as anhydro-sugars and hydrolysis loss is not taken into account. The reporting unit is g/kg or %.
