the Alkali-Soluble Hemicelluloses of Black Sprucewood.

Work done previously in this Laboratory by G.N. Milford showed that the extraction of black spruce chlorite holocellulose with liquid ammonia removed about 5% by weight of the wood, and at the same time made soluble in water 12.7% of polysaccharide material that previously had been water-insoluble....
