Hemicellulose
Hemicellulose is a complex carbohydrate polymer found in the cell walls of plants. It is made up of various sugar molecules such as xylose, arabinose, mannose, and galactose, among others. Hemicellulose acts as a structural component, providing strength and rigidity to plant cell walls. It is also a source of dietary fiber for humans and animals. Hemicellulose can be broken down through enzymatic processes to release sugars for various industrial applications, such as biofuel production.
