Presence of ABG Group in LIGNOCEL Meeting

In the last meeting of the LIGNOCEL Network (Biotechnology of Lignocellulolosic Materials), which took place in Madrid (October 1-2 2015), our laboratory presented the work "Enzymatic transformation of xylan into xylooligosaccharides by the synergistic action of two endoxylanases". The meeting was very fruitful to establish new collaborations between research groups involved in the exploitation of lignocellulosic residues.
