Abstract
A Streptomyces sp. isolate, from decayed wood shavings, solubilized li gnocellulose (LC) and lignin of Pinus radiata, producing about 50 mg a cid-precipitable polymeric lignin per g LC. The product was poor in pr otein and carbohydrates and contained mainly vanillin, guaicol, vanill ic and ferulic acids. Hardwood LC is thus suitable for producing APPL as a phenolic chemical feedstock.
