Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are increasingly being recognized as sustainable and promising because of their unique properties: low melting point, cost, biocompatibility. Some DESs possess high viscosity, remarkable stability, minimal toxicity, enhancing appeal for diverse applications. Notably, they hold promise in biomass pretreatment, a crucial step conversion, although potential algal carbohydrates extraction remains largely unexplored. Understanding the correlation between DESs' properties behavior carbohydrate extraction, alongside cellulose degradation mechanisms, gap. This review provides an overview use extracting from lignocellulosic biomass, explores factors that influence sheds light on mechanism by DESs. Additionally, discusses future developments applications DESs, particularly biomass.

Plant biomass is one of the most abundant renewable carbon sources, which holds great potential for replacing current fossil-based production fuels and chemicals. In nature, fungi can efficiently degrade plant polysaccharides by secreting a broad range carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), such as cellulases, hemicellulases, pectinases. Due to crucial role biomass-degrading (PBD) CAZymes in fungal growth related biotechnology applications, investigation their genomic diversity transcriptional dynamics has attracted increasing attention. this project, we systematically compared genome content PBD six taxonomically distant species, Aspergillus niger, nidulans, Penicillium subrubescens, Trichoderma reesei, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Dichomitus squalens, well transcriptome profiles during on nine monosaccharides. Considerable variation remarkable transcriptomic were identified, implying preferred source these different methods transcription regulation. addition, specific utilization ability inferred from genomics transcriptomics was with corresponding sugars, improve our understanding conversion process. This study enhances polysaccharide-degrading provides new insights into designing enzyme mixtures metabolic engineering industrial applications.
