TL;DR: In this article, the progress and applications of infrared techniques in biomass study, and compares the infrared and the wet chemical methods for composition analysis, are summarized and compared, in addition to reviewing recent studies of biomass structure and composition.

TL;DR: Objectives of this review were to update and extend previous works on pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass for biofuels and biochemicals using organic solvents, especially on ethanol, methanol, ethylene glycol, glycerol, acetic acid, and formic acid.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of genotype, environment, location, and their interactions have a significant effect on end-use quality characteristics of grain sorghum (Sorghum biocolor (L.) Moench ).

TL;DR: This paper showed that as much as 20% of the fermentable sugars can be lost in 3 days at room temperature because of activities of contaminating bacteria, which lead to significant increases in bacterial count and decreases in pH values.

TL;DR: In this article, four sorghum hybrids were characterized and evaluated for kernel characteristics, proximate analysis, flour composition and end product in a Chinese egg noodle system, and water absorption was significantly affected by flour particle size, starch particle size and starch damage.
