Article Abstract
In situ saccharification of lignocellulose is essential for efficiently converting biomass into value-added products. In this study, nickel foam underwent electrochemical pore size regulation and polydopamine modification to produce polydopamine-modified foam nickel with aperture control (PNiF-AC), which was used for cellulase immobilization and in situ saccharification of wheat straw. PNiF-AC demonstrated excellent hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and robust adsorption-desorption cycling properties. Immobilizing cellulase onto PNiF-AC significantly improved its thermal stability by 64.8 %. The immobilized cellulase yielded 17.0 mg/mL of reducing sugars during the in situ saccharification of wheat straw, representing a 20 % increase over free cellulase. Moreover, after eight cycles of magnetic stirring, the reducing sugar yield decreased by only 19.4 %, highlighting the remarkable reusability and stability of the immobilized cellulase. These findings establish polydopamine-modified foam nickel as an efficient platform for cellulase immobilization, presenting a novel approach to improving lignocellulose conversion processes.

The microbial metabolic activity of , a key factor in production, varies due to environmental and raw material diversity. Quality differences exist among batches, even within the same fermentation room, and continue to change during storage. An accurate assessment of 's microbial activity is crucial for enhancing quality and production consistency, yet an in situ, nondestructive detection method remains elusive.

Background: A deployable, continuous enzymatic hydrolysis (CEH) process can address cost and commercialization risks associated with second-generation (Gen2) biorefinery sugar/lignin/ethanol production while contributing to energy supply and security. Developments in commercial enzymatic hydrolysis formulations targeting Gen2 pretreated biomass such as deacetylated mechanically refined (DMR) biomass necessitate a reassessment of the existing hybrid simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) approach. Notably, the practice of "finishing hydrolysis" in SSF has become problematic with the introduction of oxidative enzymes, such as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs), into commercial cellulase formulations as these require specific redox conditions and cofactor.

The production of high-value succinic acid (SA) from waste jatropha fruit shell (JFS) lignocellulose biomass is considered to be an economical and environmentally friendly strategy. Firstly, the cellulase encapsulated in liposomes was used to construct an efficient enzyme-catalyzed microenvironment. Furthermore, the hydrolysis efficiency of JFS was enhanced by simultaneously activating lignocellulose and in-situ saccharification in ionic liquid (IL).

Producing bioavailable glucose from abundant cellulose presents a sustainable pathway to address global food security challenges. This study demonstrates an integrated biorefinery strategy combining molten salt hydrate (LiBr MSH)-mediated hydrolysis with carbon affinity separation to overcome cellulose recalcitrance and glucose separation issues. Through in situ glycosylation engineering with glucose during cellulose hydrolysis in MSH, we synthesized branched glucan oligomers with a substitution degree of 7.
