Journal ArticleDOI
Surface roughness and color characteristics of wood treated with preservatives after accelerated weathering test
TL;DR: In this paper, the changes on the surface of the weathered samples were characterized by roughness and color measurements on the samples with 0, 200, 400 and 600h of total weathering.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase with Broad Xyloglucan Specificity from the Brown-Rot Fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum and Its Action on Cellulose-Xyloglucan Complexes
Yuka Kojima,Anikó Várnai,Takuya Ishida,Naoki Sunagawa,Dejan M. Petrović,Igarashi Kiyohiko,Jody Jellison,Barry Goodell,Gry Alfredsen,Bjørge Westereng,V.G.H. Eijsink,Makoto Yoshida +11 more
TL;DR: An alternative and sensitive method based on measurement of dynamic viscosity for real-time continuous monitoring of LPMO activity in the presence of water-soluble hemicelluloses, such as xyloglucan, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wood-water relationships and their role for wood susceptibility to fungal decay.
Christian Brischke,Gry Alfredsen +1 more
TL;DR: Findings related to wood-water relationships and their role for fungal wood decomposition are reviewed and combining techniques from wood science, mycology, biotechnology and advanced analytics is expected to provide new insights and eventually a breakthrough in understanding the intricate balance between fungal decay and wood- water relations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of chitosans with different molecular weights as possible wood preservatives
TL;DR: In this article, a broad range of chemical and mycological methods were used to evaluate the uptake, fixation, and antifungal properties of chitosan for wood preservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
pH-Dependent Relationship between Catalytic Activity and Hydrogen Peroxide Production Shown via Characterization of a Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase from Gloeophyllum trabeum
Olav A. Hegnar,Dejan M. Petrović,Bastien Bissaro,Gry Alfredsen,Anikó Várnai,Vincent G. H. Eijsink +5 more
TL;DR: The results support claims that H2O2 is a natural cosubstrate for LPMOs by demonstrating that when certain reductants are used, catalysis can be driven only by H2 O2 and not by O2, and show how auto-inactivation resulting from endogenous generation of H 2O2 in the LPMO-reductant system may be prevented.
