  2. Lignin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignin

    The conventional method for lignin quantitation in the pulp industry is the Klason lignin and acid-soluble lignin test, which is standardized procedures. The cellulose is digested thermally in the presence of acid. The residue is termed Klason lignin. Acid-soluble lignin (ASL) is quantified by the intensity of its Ultraviolet spectroscopy.

  3. Schiff test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schiff_test

    The structure of the fuchsin dye. The Schiff test is an early organic chemistry named reaction developed by Hugo Schiff, [1] and is a relatively general chemical test for detection of many organic aldehydes that has also found use in the staining of biological tissues. [2]

  4. Tollens' reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tollens'_reagent

    Tollens' test for aldehyde: left side positive (silver mirror), right side negative Ball-and-stick model of the diamminesilver(I) complex. Tollens' reagent (chemical formula ()) is a chemical reagent used to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones along with some alpha-hydroxy ketones which can tautomerize into aldehydes.

  5. Aldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldehyde

    Aldehyde structure. In organic chemistry, an aldehyde (/ ˈ æ l d ɪ h aɪ d /) is an organic compound containing a functional group with the structure R−CH=O. [1] The functional group itself (without the "R" side chain) can be referred to as an aldehyde but can also be classified as a formyl group. Aldehydes are a common motif in many ...

  6. Simon's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon's_reagent

    Separate storage of the aldehyde and base are necessary to prevent aldol polymerisation of the aldehyde. When exposed to an amine, reaction with acetaldehyde produces the enamine, which subsequently reacts with sodium nitroprusside to the imine. Finally, the iminium salt is hydrolysed to the bright blue [1] Simon-Awe complex. [3] [5]

  7. Wood glue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_glue

    Wood glue is an adhesive used to tightly bond pieces of wood together. Many substances have been used as glues. Many substances have been used as glues. Traditionally animal proteins like casein from milk or collagen from animal hides and bones were boiled down to make early glues.

  8. Xylose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylose

    Xylose (cf. Ancient Greek: ξύλον, xylon, "wood") is a sugar first isolated from wood, and named for it. Xylose is classified as a monosaccharide of the aldopentose type, which means that it contains five carbon atoms and includes an aldehyde functional group. It is derived from hemicellulose, one of the main constituents of biomass. Like ...

  9. Oddy test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddy_test

    The Oddy test is not a contact test, but is for testing off-gassing. A basic layout of a three-in-one Oddy Test. Each metal detects a different set of corrosive agents. The silver is for detecting reduced sulfur compounds and carbonyl sulfides. The lead is for detecting organic acids, aldehyde, and acidic gases.
