    Abstract:
    Bamboo is a promising biomass resource. However, the complex multilayered structure and chemical composition of bamboo cell walls create a unique anti-depolymerization barrier, which increases the difficulty of separation and utilization of bamboo. In this study, the relationship between the connections of lignin-carbohydrate complexes (LCCs) within bamboo cell walls and their multilayered structural compositions was investigated. The chemical composition, structural properties, dissolution processes, and migration mechanisms of LCCs were analyzed. Alkali-stabilized LCC bonds were found to be predominantly characterized by phenyl glycoside (PhGlc) bonds along with numerous p-coumaric acid (PCA) linkage structures. As demonstrated by the NMR and CLSM results, the dissolution of the LCC during the alkaline pretreatment process was observed to migrate from the inner secondary wall (S-layer) of the bamboo fiber cell walls to the cell corner middle lamella (CCML) and compound middle lamella (CML), ultimately leading to its release from the bamboo. Furthermore, the presence of H-type lignin-FA-arabinoxylan linkage structures within the bamboo LCC was identified with their primary dissolution observed in the S-layer of the bamboo fiber cell walls. The study results provided a clear target for breaking down the anti-depolymerization barrier in bamboo, signifying a major advancement in achieving the comprehensive separation of bamboo components.
