Pinus taeda wood chips were biotreated with Ceriporiopsis subvermispora under solid-state fermentation for periods varying from 15 to 90 days. Milled wood lignins extracted from sound and biotreated wood samples were characterized by wet-chemical and spectroscopic techniques. Treatment of the lignins by derivatization followed by reductive cleavage (DFRC) made it possible to detect DFRC monomers and dimers that are diagnostic of the occurrence of arylglycerol-beta-O-aryl and beta-beta, beta-5, beta-1, and 4-O-5 units in the lignin structure. Quantification of these DFRC products indicated that beta-O-aryl cleavage was a significant route for lignin biodegradation but that beta-beta, beta-5, beta-1, and 4-O-5 linkages were more resistant to the biological attack. The amount of aromatic hydroxyls did not increase with the split of beta-O-4 linkages, suggesting that the beta-O-4 cleavage products remain as quinone-type structures as detected by UV and visible spectroscopy. Nuclear magnetic resonance techniques also indicated the formation of new substructures containing nonoxygenated, saturated aliphatic carbons (CH(2) and CH(3)) in the side chains of lignins extracted from biotreated wood samples.
