Abstract
Lignin, a natural polyphenol polymer, is a biocompatible, cost-effective and accessible material. To fully utilize the benefits of lignin, it is crucial to transform its complex macromolecules into nanoscale particles in a single solvent. In this research, an assembly-mediated internal cross-linking method in single solvent was proposed to manufacture cross-linked lignin colloidal particles with nanoscale particle size controlled to be around 50 nm. Then, cross-linked lignin composite particles with a unique "patchy" structure for dental cleansing were obtained by rapidly grafting the cross-linked lignin colloidal particles onto the surface of silica microspheres through the bridging effect of silane coupling agent. The resulting composite particles have rivets with adjustable hardness, significantly lower than traditional abrasives like silica in both hardness and modulus. Through the group cleansing behavior of soft interlocking, a breakthrough has been achieved in the high solid content agglomeration friction mode of traditional abrasives, which effectively reduces tooth wear and exhibits an excellent plaque removal effect.

Enhanced antifungal properties of poly(butylene succinate) film with lignin nanoparticles and trans-cinnamaldehyde for mango packaging. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131185.

Abstract
Sustainable poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) films incorporating lignin nanoparticles (LN) and trans-cinnamaldehyde (CN) have been developed to preserve mango freshness and provide food safety. PBS/LN, PBS/CN, and PBS/LN/CN composite films were produced by blown film melt extrusion. This study investigated the effect of CN-LN on the CN remaining content, thermal, mechanical, and barrier properties, diffusion coefficient, and antifungal activity of PBS films both in vitro and in vivo. Results showed that LN in the PBS/LN/CN composite film contained more CN than in the PBS/CN film. The compatibility of CN-LN with PBS produced homogeneous surfaces with enhanced barrier properties. PBS/LN/CN composite films demonstrated superior antifungal efficacy, inhibiting the growth of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and preserving mango quality during storage. Results suggested that incorporating LN into PBS composite films prolonged the sustained release of antifungal agents, thereby inhibiting microbial growth and extending the shelf life of mangoes. Development of PBS/LN/CN composite films is a beneficial step toward reducing food waste and enhancing food safety.

Abstract
Lignin is the most abundant natural aromatic macromolecule in the nature, but its high value-added utilization has been seriously hindered by the highly random and branched structures and the high difficulty in separation and purification. A microwave-assisted ternary deep eutectic solvent (DES) composed by formic acid, lactic acid and choline chloride was developed for lignin pretreatment. The effects of three types of DES on main characteristics of lignin were investigated, and the corresponding dissolution mechanism was proposed. The results showed that, the microwave-assisted ternary DES pretreatment showed an obvious improvement on main characteristics of regenerated lignin, e.g., a higher purity, lower molecular weight with reduced dispersity, improved thermal stability, higher phenolic hydroxyl content, and increased antioxidative activity in comparison with control. It is expected that the lignin macromolecular can be facile regulated and upgraded by the proposed ternary DES.

Abstract
In this study, β-CD was used as a receptor to prepare three novel SDES, which were used to pretreat corn stalks for obtaining fluorescent lignin and promoting biomass pyrolytic saccharification. It was found that GA-residue had a high cellulose retention ratio (94.63%) and the highest lignin removal ratio (61.78%). Besides, the yield of carbohydrates in bio-oil was increased from 0.63% to 49.37%, and fluorescent lignin was prepared for explosion detection, fluorescent film, and information encryption. It was confirmed that the weak interaction between β-CD and HBDs or dimer was mainly performed by hydrogen bond and van der Waals force. The minimum frontier orbital energy difference ΔEU (0.1976 a.u.) and high binding energy (-5456.71 kJ/mol) between molecules were calculated by DFT. Moreover, the mechanism of biomass pretreatment was explored. The green and efficient SDES developed in this study were of great significance for biomass pretreatment and efficient utilization of components.

Abstract
Lignin is one of the major macromolecule in nature that contains an aromatic ring structure, and also a potential source of high-value products such as biofuels and chemicals. However, Lignin is a kind of complex heterogeneous polymer which can produce many degradation products during processing or treatment. These degradation products are difficult to separate, making it challenging to use lignin directly for high-value applications. This study proposes an electrocatalytic method to degrade lignin by using allyl halides to induce double-bonded phenolic monomers, while avoiding separation. In an alkaline solution, the three basic structural units (G, S, and H) of lignin were transformed into phenolic monomers by introducing allyl halide, which could effectively expand lignin application space. This reaction was achieved using a Pb/PbO2 electrode as the anode and copper as the cathode. It was further confirmed that double-bonded phenolic monomers were obtained by degradation. 3-allylbromide has more active allyl radicals and significantly higher product yields than 3-allylchloride. The yields of 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol, 4-allyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenol and 2-allylphenol could reach 17.21 g/kg-lignin, 7.75 g/kg-lignin, and 0.67 g/kg-lignin respectively. These mixed double-bond monomers can be used as monomer materials for in-situ polymerization without further separation, which lays the foundation for high value-added applications of lignin.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant natural polymer on Earth, but the efficient fractionation and refinery of all its components remain challenging. Acidic deep eutectic solvents refining is a promising method, while it is likely to cause lignin condensation and carbohydrates degradation, especially at server operation conditions. Here we propose the use of acidic deep eutectic solvent (DES), choline chloride/p-toluenesulfonic acid assisted mechanochemical pretreatment (DM) for efficient lignocellulose fractionation at mild condition. Four representative lignocellulose, wheat straw, moso bamboo, poplar wood and pine wood were selected at varied milling time (3, 6 h) to assess the fractionation ability of this strategy. This DM pretreatment demonstrated a rather high cellulose retentions (∼90 %) and extent of delignification for wheat straw and bamboo biomass, which corresponds to a high extent of enzymatic hydrolysis (∼75.5 %) for sugar platform pursuing. The extracted lignin showed rather high content of β-O-4' leakages due to the swelling effect of deep eutectic solvent and mild operation conditions. This work provided a promising strategy to fractionate lignocellulose using deep eutectic solvents with the goal of simultaneous cellulose hydrolysis and reactive lignin obtaining that is usually difficult to realize using traditional chemical fractionation approach.

Abstract
Lignin nanoparticles (LNPs), as one of green and sustainable biological macromolecules, have attracted great attention owing to their promising potentials in many valorized fields. However, the lignin heterogeneity seriously restricts the controllable preparation of LNPs. Herein, a facile nanogrinding activation combining anhydrous ethanol dissolution process was developed to efficiently homogenize lignin prior to gradient ethanol fractionation. Two lignin fractions were obtained from nanogrinding activation/ethanol dissolution followed by gradient ethanol fractionation: L-fractions and S-fractions. Therefore, monodispersed LNPs with unique concave hollow nanostructure and large particle size, and monodispersed LNPs with solid core nanostructure and small particle size were successfully prepared from L-fractions and S-fractions, respectively, via a GVL/water anti-solvent method. The proposed LNPs formation mechanisms facilitated by nanogrinding activation/ethanol dissolution treatment were demonstrated. This study put forwards a facile and green integrated approach for monodispersed LNPs preparation with controllable morphology and particle size.

Abstract
Lignocellulose represents the most abundant carbon-capturing substance that is convertible for biofuels and bioproduction. Although biomass pretreatments have been broadly applied to reduce lignocellulose recalcitrance for enhanced enzymatic saccharification, they mostly require strong conditions with potential secondary waste release. By classifying all major types of pretreatments that have been recently conducted with different sources of lignocellulose substrates, this study sorted out their distinct roles for wall polymer extraction and destruction, leading to the optimal pretreatments evaluated for cost-effective biomass enzymatic saccharification to maximize biofuel production. Notably, all undigestible lignocellulose residues are also aimed for effective conversion into value-added bioproduction. Meanwhile, desired pretreatments were proposed for the generation of highly-valuable nanomaterials such as cellulose nanocrystals, lignin nanoparticles, functional wood, carbon dots, porous and graphitic nanocarbons. Therefore, this article has proposed a novel strategy that integrates cost-effective and green-like pretreatments with desirable lignocellulose substrates for a full lignocellulose utilization with zero-biomass-waste liberation.

Abstract
Lignin, the most abundant source of renewable aromatic compounds on the planet, is attracting more scholarly attention due to its possibility of replacing petroleum-based chemicals and products. However, it remains underutilized because of the heterogeneity of its multi-level structure that prevents homogenization and standardization of derived products. The key to solving these problems lies in finding a general preparation method to achieve the integrated utilization of lignin molecules at all levels. The assembly-mediated granulation methods provide a significant means for the integrated value-added utilization of lignin, and for biomass productization applications, it is significant to understand the molecular mechanisms of lignin nano-colloids (LNCs) formation thus accurately guiding their functionalization. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the assembly morphology and behavior of lignin in different solutions towards colloids is of great scientific importance. In this minireview, we focus on the assembly behavior of lignin in different solvents, specifically in mono-solvent and multi-solvent, and in particular, we review various methods for preparing lignin composite colloids and concentrate on the applications in therapy, cosmetics and emulsification, which are important for guiding the preparation and efficient utilization of LNCs.

Pretreatment of Wheat Straw Lignocelluloses by Deep Eutectic Solvent for Lignin Extraction. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27227955. [PMID: 36432056 PMCID: PMC9697946 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27227955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
In order to increase the fractionation efficiency of the wheat straw, a deep eutectic solvent (DES) system consisting of chlorine/lactic acid was used in this study for wheat straw pretreatment. The outcomes exhibited that DES pretreatment significantly enhanced the capability to extract lignin, retain cellulose, and remove hemicellulose. The best condition for the pretreatment of wheat straw was 150 °C for 6 h. The process retained most cellulose in the pretreated biomass (49.94-73.60%), and the enzymatic digestibility of the pretreatment residue reached 89.98%. Further characterization of lignin showed that the high yield (81.54%) and the high purity (91.33%) resulted from the ether bond cleavage in lignin and the connection between hemicellulose and lignin. As for application, the enzymatic hydrolysis of the best condition reached 89.98%, and the lignin also had suitable stability. The investigation exhibited that DES pretreatment has the potential to realize an efficient fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass into high-applicability cellulose and lignin of high-quality.

Abstract
Lignin is an indispensable and essential compound present in plants. It is a renewable resource and a green alternative to traditional petroleum energy. The rational utilization of lignin can reduce the environmental damage caused by traditional industrial development. The preparation of lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) using the self-assembly method is one of the most favorable ways to achieve high value-added utilization of lignin. However, the process requires an in-depth understanding of the sphere-forming mechanism of lignin self-assembly and the interaction of self-assembly forces. We used the same raw materials and two different preparation methods to prepare LNPs. The results revealed that the variation in the order of the dropwise addition of lignin solution and deionized water produced LNPs with varying average sizes. The sphere-forming mechanisms of the two kinds of lignin nanoparticles were discussed for the preparation of UV-resistant polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymeric films. During lignin spherification, the faster the solution reaches the supersaturation state, the faster the spherogenesis rate is, the smaller the size is, and the narrower the particle size distribution is. The lignin micro/nanospheres are produced by exploiting the π-π bonding interactions in lignin itself. The lignin micro/nanospheres are then mixed with PVA to form a film to obtain a lignin-PVA composite film material with an anti-UV effect.

Abstract
Searching for sustainable, ecofriendly, and renewable precursors for nanostructured material synthesis is a fascinating area pertaining to feasibility in various applications. Especially, lignin-based material preparation is essential for unraveling the usage of lignin by valorization. Hence, we have synthesized lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) using date palm tree (Phoenix dactylifera L.) biomass as a precursor in this investigation. The LNP's morphological and thermal features were assessed. Moreover, we have evaluated the LNP's cytocompatibility properties by adopting in vitro approach. The P. dactylifera L. (PD) biomass-derived LNP's morphological features show a spherical shape with a 10-100 nm diameter. The LNPs have a decreased cell viability of ∼8% at a high concentration exposure to human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for 48 h. However, the LNPs do not cause any cellular and nuclear morphology changes in hMSCs. The mitochondrial membrane potential assessment results confirm healthy mitochondria with high mitochondrial membrane potential in LNP-treated cells. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation assay results revealed that LNPs do not trigger ROS generation in hMSCs. We examined the upregulation of GSTM3 and GSR genes and the downregulation of SOD1 genes in LNP-treated hMSCs, but no significant changes were observed. Our study concluded that PD biomass-derived LNPs have a good cytocompatibility and an antioxidant property. Thus, they can be applicable for various biological, cosmetic, and environmental applications.

Abstract
A novel and effective green system consisting of deep eutectic solvent (DES) was proposed to prepare lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) without any lignin modification. The LNPs are obtained through the dialysis of the kraft lignin-DES solution. The particle size distribution, Zeta potential and morphology of the LNPs are characterized by using dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The average diameter of LNPs is in the range 123.6 to 140.7 nm, and the LNPs show good stability and dispersibility in water. The composite beads composed of LNPs and sodium alginate (SA) are highly efficient (97.1%) at removing methylene blue (MB) from the aqueous solution compared to 82.9% and 77.4% by the SA/bulk kraft lignin composite and pure SA, respectively. Overall, the LNPs-SA bio-nanocomposite with high adsorption capacity (258.5 mg/g) could be useful in improving water quality and other related applications.

Abstract
Facile fractionation of lignocellulosic waste into useable forms is essential to achieve a multi-product treatment process especially when the resulting lignin streams are expected for high-value materials valorization. Despite acidic/alkaline deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are promising solvents for lignocellulosic waste fractionation, there is little information about their differences in the fractionation and lignin extraction profiles. In this work, four DESs that were cataloged to acidic types (formic acid-choline chloride, lactic acid-choline chloride) and alkaline types (monoethanolamine-choline chloride, glycerol-K2CO3) were investigated to compare their abilities of bamboo waste fractionation. Physicochemical properties of these resulting cellulose, lignin and derived lignin nanospheres (LNPs) were also assessed. Results showed that DESs could selectively extract lignin via cleaving lignin-carbohydrate linkages and lignin ether bonds. Acidic DESs pretreatments were more effective in biomass delignification (~95.0 %), while alkaline DESs showed better polysaccharide retention. Glycerol-K2CO3 LNPs exhibited much smaller sphere size (50-100 nm) while acidic DESs LNPs showed higher thermal stability due to higher extent of lignin condensation. In addition, MEA-ChCl could introduce amine groups onto lignin hydroxyl. This work provided insightful information for tailoring technique routes to selective lignocellulosic waste fractionation, while facilitating the downstream applications of the obtained cellulose/lignin.

Self-generated peroxyacetic acid in phosphoric acid plus hydrogen peroxide pretreatment mediated lignocellulose deconstruction and delignification. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2021; 14:224. [PMID: 34823568 PMCID: PMC8614055 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-021-02075-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Accepted: 11/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peroxyacetic acid involved chemical pretreatment is effective in lignocellulose deconstruction and oxidation. However, these peroxyacetic acid are usually artificially added. Our previous work has shown that the newly developed PHP pretreatment (phosphoric acid plus hydrogen peroxide) is promising in lignocellulose biomass fractionation through an aggressive oxidation process, while the information about the synergistic effect between H3PO4 and H2O2 is quite lack, especially whether some strong oxidant intermediates is existed. In this work, we reported the PHP pretreatment system could self-generate peroxyacetic acid oxidant, which mediated the overall lignocellulose deconstruction, and hemicellulose/lignin degradation. RESULTS The PHP pretreatment profile on wheat straw and corn stalk were investigated. The pathways/mechanisms of peroxyacetic acid mediated-PHP pretreatment were elucidated through tracing the structural changes of each component. Results showed that hemicellulose was almost completely solubilized and removed, corresponding to about 87.0% cellulose recovery with high digestibility. Rather high degrees of delignification of 83.5% and 90.0% were achieved for wheat straw and corn stalk, respectively, with the aid of peroxyacetic acid oxidation. A clearly positive correlation was found between the concentration of peroxyacetic acid and the extent of lignocellulose deconstruction. Peroxyacetic acid was mainly self-generated through H2O2 oxidation of acetic acid that was produced from hemicellulose deacetylation and lignin degradation. The self-generated peroxyacetic acid then further contributed to lignocellulose deconstruction and delignification. CONCLUSIONS The synergistic effect of H3PO4 and H2O2 in the PHP solvent system could efficiently deconstruct wheat straw and corn stalk lignocellulose through an oxidation-mediated process. The main function of H3PO4 was to deconstruct biomass recalcitrance and degrade hemicellulose through acid hydrolysis, while the function of H2O2 was to facilitate the formation of peroxyacetic acid. Peroxyacetic acid with stronger oxidation ability was generated through the reaction between H2O2 and acetic acid, which was released from xylan and lignin oxidation/degradation. This work elucidated the generation and function of peroxyacetic acid in the PHP pretreatment system, and also provide useful information to tailor peroxide-involved pretreatment routes, especially at acidic conditions.

Abstract
In practical applications, the full biodegradability of all-biomass-based bacterial cellulose (BC) composites enhances their environmentally friendliness but results in the poor durability especially at humid conditions. This work prepared BC/lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) composite films with retarded biodegradability, which could broaden their application area. Three LNPs were fabricated using technical lignins extracted by deep eutectic solvent (DES), ethanol organosolv, soda/anthraquinone from poplar. LNPs involvement during BC fermentation showed limited influence on its productivity but significantly retarded the biodegradation of composite films. The potential inhibition mechanism was physical barrier and non-productive binding of LNPs. The BC/Soda LNPs showed much higher retarded degradation property (~58 wt% degradation) compared to BC/Organosolv LNPs and BC/DES LNPs (~85 wt% and ~ 97 wt% degradation respectively) at high enzyme loadings of 5 mg g-1 BCE. While at low enzyme loadings of 1 mg g-1 BCE, all these three composite films showed comparable retarded degradation property of ~60 wt%.

Abstract
A new type of functional lignin-based spherical particles (L-CTAB) prepared with the use of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was applied as an effective biosorbent for removing vanadium(V) ions. The porous structure, characteristic functional groups, electrokinetic stability, morphology and size of the L-CTAB particles were examined. The conditions of removal were also investigated, including pH (2-12), sorbent mass (0.1-0.5 g), concentration (10-100 mg/dm3), phase contact time (1-240 min) and temperature (293-333 K). At pH 5.0 the maximum sorption percentage (%S) of V(V) was 45%, while at pH 2.0 it was 32%. The maximum sorption capacity of V(V) for L-CTAB was found to be 10.79 mg/g. The kinetic data indicate that the sorption followed the pseudo-second-order and film diffusion models. Sorption equilibrium for V(V) ions removal by L-CTAB was reached after 60 min at the initial concentrations 10 and 50 mg/dm3. It has been shown that the adsorption of V(V) ions on the surface of L-CTAB is a heterogeneous, endothermic and spontaneous reaction, as evidenced by the calculated values of thermodynamic parameters - free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°) and entropy (ΔS°) - for the tested systems at different temperatures. HCl solutions, used as an L-CTAB regeneration agent, quantitatively eluted V(V) ions.

Abstract
Due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and non-toxicity, lignocellulosic-derived nanoparticles are very potential materials for drug carriers in drug delivery applications. There are three main lignocellulosic-derived nanoparticles discussed in this review. First, lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) are an amphiphilic nanoparticle which has versatile interactions toward hydrophilic or hydrophobic drugs. The synthesis methods of LNPs play an important role in this amphiphilic characteristic. Second, xylan nanoparticles (XNPs) are a hemicellulose-derived nanoparticle, where additional pretreatment is needed to obtain a high purity xylan before the synthesis of XNPs. This process is quite long and challenging, but XNPs have a lot of potential as a drug carrier due to their stronger interactions with various drugs. Third, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are a widely exploited nanoparticle, especially in drug delivery applications. CNCs have low cytotoxicity, therefore they are suitable for use as a drug carrier. The research possibilities for these three nanoparticles are still wide and there is potential in drug delivery applications, especially for enhancing their characteristics with further surface modifications adjusted to the drugs.

Abstract
In this work, sodium lignosulfonate (SL) was introduced in the hydrothermal preparation of phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin sphere that was subsequently used as a green reducer and support for synthesis of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The results showed that the addition amount of SL had a remarkable effect on the size of the SL incorporated PF (SLPF) spheres and the smallest particle size was obtained when 20% of SL (based on phenol mass) was added. The addition of SL increased the surface area and negative charge of SLPF spheres, which enhanced the Ag NPs loading amount accordingly. Moreover, SL also prevented Ag NPs from aggregating effectively, resulting in the high-density loading of small size Ag NPs on the SLPF spheres. Therefore, the as-prepared Ag@SLPF composites exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activities in the 4-nitrophenol reduction than that of SL-free Ag@PF. Besides, the Ag@SLPF catalyst demonstrated superior recyclability owing to strong anchoring between the Ag NPs and the support. Consequently, the work demonstrates the incorporation of SL enables the green formation of high-density and tunable Ag NPs on the SLPF support and then endows the composite catalyst with enhanced catalytic performance, which presents a promising value-added application of lignosulfonate for functional catalyst preparation.
