AT3: Usage of Cell Wall Components, esp. Hemicelluloses

The official Call for Papers for this session is available here: Call for Papers AT3

Description

This topic area focuses on the usage of cell wall components, especially hemicelluloses. There is much research done in the field of hemicellulose extraction. We want to show in which fields these hemicelluloses can be used, which properties are needed for which usage and how these properties are influenced by the chosen extraction method.
