Processing-induced changes in carbohydrate-related function groups on a molecular basis
Feed processing has different impact on different functional groups in feeds which are related to carbohydrate. Yu [26], reported the study on effect of bioethanol processing on carbohydrate functional groups by using DRIFT molecular spectroscopy. The following functional groups were studied, including: “A_Cell (peaks area region and baseline: ca. 1485–1188 cm-1) mainly associated with hemi- and cellulosic compounds,
