Hemicelluloses positive effect on Biomass digestibility.Miscanthus sample with a relatively higher hemicelluloses level (Mlu26) showing an enhanced biomass digestibility after pretreatments with (A) NaOH or (B) H2SO4 at three concentrations. The biomass digestibility was accounted by either hexoses yield (% cellulose) released from enzymatic hydrolysis after pretreatment or total sugar yield (% dry matter) released from both pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis.
