Abstract
Lignin is the most important natural source of aromatic compounds. The valorisation of lignin into aromatics requires fractionation steps that can be catalysed by ligninolytic enzymes. However, one of the main limitations of biological lignin fractionation is the low efficiency of biocatalysts; it is therefore crucial to enhance or to identify new ligninolytic enzymes. Currently, the screening of ligninolytic activities on lignin polymers represents a technological bottenleck and hinders the characterization and the discovery of efficient ligninolytic biocatalysts. An efficient and fast method for the measurement of such enzymatic activities is therefore required. In this work, we present a new electrochemical tool based on lignin-coated paper electrodes for the detection and the characterization of ligninolytic activity. The suitability of this method is demonstrated using a catalase-peroxidase isolated from Thermobacillus xylanilyticus.

Abstract
The fast development of Internet of Things and the rapid advent of next-generation versatile wearable electronics require cost-effective and highly-efficient electroactive materials for flexible electrochemical energy storage devices. Among various electroactive materials, binder-free nanostructured arrays have attracted widespread attention. Featured with growing on a conductive and flexible substrate without using inactive and insulating binders, binder-free 3D nanoarray electrodes facilitate fast electron/ion transportation and rapid reaction kinetics with more exposed active sites, maintain structure integrity of electrodes even under bending or twisted conditions, readily release generated joule heat during charge/discharge cycles and achieve enhanced gravimetric capacity of the whole device. Binder-free metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoarrays and/or MOF-derived nanoarrays with high surface area and unique porous structure have emerged with great potential in energy storage field and been extensively exploited in recent years. In this review, common substrates used for binder-free nanoarrays are compared and discussed. Various MOF-based and MOF-derived nanoarrays, including metal oxides, sulfides, selenides, nitrides, phosphides and nitrogen-doped carbons, are surveyed and their electrochemical performance along with their applications in flexible energy storage are analyzed and overviewed. In addition, key technical issues and outlooks on future development of MOF-based and MOF-derived nanoarrays toward flexible energy storage are also offered.

Abstract
For the application of lignin-based materials, it is necessary to develop simple and efficient chemical modification strategies for lignin. In this work, the iodization modification strategy is selected to improve the specific surface area and graphitization degree of lignin-based carbon fibers. The introduction of an iodine atom can effectively increase the π electron cloud density of the lignin aromatic hydrocarbon structure. High π electron cloud density can effectively enhance the π-π interaction force between lignin molecules (the supramolecular bonds). The biomass precursors with this intermolecular microstructure exhibit good thermal stability and can maintain the original fibrous morphology during high-temperature treatment, which is beneficial for increasing the specific surface area of biomass-based carbon materials. Furthermore, this intermolecular microstructure also contributes to the graphitization of biomass precursor materials and reduces the spacing of graphite micro-lamellae. The obtained lignin-based carbon fibers with iodization modification exhibit a specific capacitance of 333 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g in the three-electrode tests in 6 M KOH solution. As the assembled supercapacitor, the specific capacitance of lignin-based carbon fibers reaches 87 F/g in 1 M Na2SO4 solution. Compared to other modification processes for raw materials, this strategy is simple and efficient and has reference value for the synthesis of other high-performance biomass-based materials.

Abstract
Cellulose of bacterial origin, known as bacterial cellulose (BC), is one of the most versatile biomaterials that has a huge potential in tissue engineering due to its favourable mechanical properties, high hydrophilicity, crystallinity, and purity. Additional properties such as porous nano-fibrillar 3D structure and a high degree of polymerisation of BC mimic the properties of the native extracellular matrix (ECM), making it an excellent material for the fabrication of composite scaffolds suitable for cell growth and tissue development. Recently, the fabrication of BC-based scaffolds, including composites and blends with nanomaterials, and other biocompatible polymers has received particular attention owing to their desirable properties for tissue engineering. These have proven to be promising advanced materials in hard and soft tissue engineering. This review presents the latest state-of-the-art modified/functionalised BC-based composites and blends as advanced materials in tissue engineering. Their applicability as an ideal biomaterial in targeted tissue repair including bone, cartilage, vascular, skin, nerve, and cardiac tissue has been discussed. Additionally, this review briefly summarises the latest updates on the production strategies and characterisation of BC and its composites and blends. Finally, the challenges in the future development and the direction of future research are also discussed.

Abstract
Replacing catalyst supports with sustainable and degradable materials is an urgent task. Xylan is a type of abundant natural polymers with potential applications in dispersing, anchoring, and coating materials, but its material values have always been underestimated. In this study, polyethyleneimine modified dialdehyde xylan (DAX-PEI) was used as a dispersing and anchoring agent to bind Pd nanoparticles onto paper surface to produce a DAX-PEI-Pd coated paper, which was used to catalyze Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. The catalytic coated paper exhibited a good catalytic activity with a yield of 91% and a high turnover frequency (TOF) of 3300 h-1. Besides, it showed an excellent recyclability with the same catalytic coated paper being used 15 times and still having a yield of nearly 90%. This environment-friendly catalytic coated paper owns its great prospect in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Wire-shaped supercapacitors (WSCs) are promising in wearable electronics but still face critical challenges of limited energy density. Nanostructured materials are dominant in high-performance active materials for improving energy density but are generally limited to wire-shaped electrodes (WSEs) with low mass loading (<0.5 mg cm-1) because of sluggish ionic kinetics in thicker electrodes. To address this problem, we report here the treatment of microstructured carbon fiber (CF) via a surface engineering strategy, which adopts controllable oxygen (O) functional groups on the CF surface with both highly redox-active sites and fast electron/ion transport. By combining a knitting method, we demonstrate that a WSE with high mass loading (∼6.1 mg cm-1) can operate at ultrahigh capacitance (435.1 mF cm-1, 1539.7 mF cm-2, and 68.4 mF cm-3), exceeding that of most of the reported WSEs. An assembled WSC delivers up to 195.3 mF cm-1 and 33 μW h cm-1, surpassing the best carbon symmetric supercapacitor known, and even conducting polymers and metal oxide asymmetric devices. Thus, this work provides a viable method for a high-mass WSE and will stimulate the development of WSCs toward practical applications.

Abstract
As one of the most abundant natural polymers in nature, polysaccharides have the potential to replace petroleum-based polymers that are difficult to degrade in paper coatings. Polysaccharide molecules have a large number of hydroxyl groups that can bind strongly with paper fibers through hydrogen bonds. Chemical modification can also effectively improve the mechanical, barrier, and hydrophobic properties of polysaccharide-based coating layers and thus can further improve the related properties of coated paper. Polysaccharides can also give paper additional functional properties by dispersing and adhering functional fillers, e.g., conductive particles, catalytic particles or antimicrobial chemicals, onto paper surface. Based on these, this paper reviews the application of natural polysaccharides, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, starch, chitosan, and sodium alginate, and their derivatives in paper coatings. This paper analyzes the improvements and influences of chemical structures and properties of polysaccharides on the mechanical, barrier, and hydrophobic properties of coated paper. This paper also summarizes the researches where polysaccharides are used as the adhesives to adhere inorganic or functional fillers onto paper surface to endow paper with great surface properties or special functions such as conductivity, catalytic, antibiotic, and fluorescence.
