Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced enzyme saccharification of Sorghum bicolor straw using dilute alkali pretreatment.
Shane McIntosh,Tony Vancov +1 more
TL;DR: Higher temperatures and alkali strength were quintessential for maximising sugar recoveries from enzyme saccharifications, whilst adding beta-glucosidase and xylanase to saccharification mixtures enhanced reaction rates and final sugar yields, whilst reducing cellulase dosage 4-fold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimisation of dilute alkaline pretreatment for enzymatic saccharification of wheat straw
Shane McIntosh,Tony Vancov +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, dilute alkaline (NaOH) pretreatment followed by enzyme saccharification of wheat straw to produce fermentable sugars was used to evaluate the impacts of varying pretreatment parameters on enzymatic digestion of residual solid materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of ionic liquids in converting lignocellulosic material to biofuels.
TL;DR: In this paper, the dissolution of cellulose and lignocellulose in various ionic liquids is described including key properties such as high hydrogen-bonding basicity, which increases the ability of the IL to dissolve cellulose.
Book ChapterDOI
Impact of Herbicides on Soil Biology and Function
Michael T. Rose,Timothy R. Cavagnaro,Craig Scanlan,Terry J. Rose,Tony Vancov,Stephen Kimber,Ivan R. Kennedy,Rai S. Kookana,Lukas Van Zwieten +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors outline the chemistry and use of the major herbicide classes and review the soil functions relevant to crop production, and then collate and critically evaluate the evidence for herbicide effects on soil biota and activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amplification of soil fungal community DNA using the ITS86F and ITS4 primers
Tony Vancov,Brad Keen +1 more
TL;DR: Both primer sets demonstrated fungal specificity and appear to be well suited for rapid PCR-based (fingerprinting) analysis of environmental fungal community DNA.
