The distribution of lignin in sprucewood as determined by ultraviolet microscopy

TL;DR: The distribution of lignin in black spruce has been determined quantitatively by the study of 05 μm transverse sections in a UV microscope as mentioned in this paper, showing that 72% of the total Lignin content was in the secondary wall leaving only 28% in the compound middle and cell corner middle lamella regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The application of ultraviolet microscopy to the distribution of lignin in wood description and validity of the technique

TL;DR: In this article, a method was developed for the determination of lignin distribution in the wood cell wall by ultraviolet microscopy, which incorporates some important advances on previus applications of UV microscopy to the study of Lignin distributions.
