Popis: It is important to understand the enzymatic degradation of wood biomass by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase, however, disagreements about the co-substrate exist. Here, the authors use piezo-controlled hydrogen peroxide micro-sensors to demonstrate that even low levels of hydrogen peroxide support the enzymatic degradation of wood cell walls.
