Rapid quantification of cellulose nanocrystals by Calcofluor White fluorescence staining v1

View through CrossRef
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have gained worldwide interest for their properties. CNCs are mostly produced by acid hydrolysis of cellulose-rich biomass, but its’ quantification is still complicated and tedious. Here, we describe a rapid method for the determination of CNCs concentration using Calcofluor White (CW) fluorescence dye. This method is robust, easy, selective for crystalline cellulose and suitable for routine measurement in CNCs production.
