Designation: E3503 −25
Standard Test Method for
Determination of Hemicellulose in Herbaceous Biomass by
High Performance Liquid Chromatography
1
This standard is issued under the fixed designation E3503; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the quantification of hemicel-
lulose present in herbaceous biomass substrates using a dilute
acid incubation period and high performance liquid chroma-
tography (HPLC) analysis. This method can be utilized across
a variety of substrates containing 1 % to 44 % hemicellulosic
content.
2
1.2 This method intends to provide carbohydrate analysis
for evaluation of fermentation efficacy for various biomass
saccharides associated with hemicellulose. Current fermenta-
tion technologies can convert arabinose, galactose, glucose,
mannose, and xylose and will leave uronic acids and acetic
acids unconverted, so they are not included in this assay. It
should be noted that co-quantification of xylose, mannose, and
galactose occurs. Additionally, glucose is simultaneously re-
leased from starch, cellulose, and hemicellulose during this
assay and the source cannot be determined, so glucose is not
quantified in this assay.
1.3 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded
as the standard. No other units of measurement are included in
this standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-
priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-
mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-
dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-
ization established in the Decision on Principles for the
Development of International Standards, Guides and Recom-
mendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

3.1.7 hemicellulose, n—a polymeric, branched carbohydrate
with mixed five and six carbon monomeric sugars, typically
with a xylose or mannose backbone.
3.1.7.1 Discussion—The glucan portion of hemicellulose
present in biomass samples is not quantified under the condi-
tions prescribed in this method. Additionally, hemicellulose as
analyzed by this method will include measurement of any free
monosaccharides present in the herbaceous biomass.
3.1.8 herbaceous biomass, n—non-woody plant materials,
to include grasses, agricultural residues, and grains, which are
fast growing and are harvested or die back at the end of each
growing cycle.
3.1.9 mannose, n—a six-carbon monosaccharide common in
biomass.
3.1.10 monosaccharide, n—any of the class of sugars that
cannot be hydrolyzed to give a simpler sugar.
3.1.11 polysaccharide, n—a carbohydrate whose molecules
consist of a long chain of sugar residues bonded together.
3.1.12 six-carbon monosaccharide, n—a simple sugar with
six carbon atoms also known as a hexose.
3.1.13 xylose, n—a five-carbon monosaccharide common in
biomass.
4. Significance and Use
4.1 This test method consists of a two-step acid hydrolysis
prior to measurement of xylose, galactose, arabinose, and
mannose by HPLC.
4.2 The hydrolysis conditions have been optimized to en-
sure maximum hemicellulose hydrolysis while minimizing
degradation of the monosaccharides.
5. Interferences
5.1 This test method employs non-specific acid hydrolysis
conditions which do not differentiate between polysaccharide
sources. All polysaccharides comprising xylan, galactan,
arabinan, and mannan that are exposed to the hydrolysis
conditions will be included in the final hemicellulose result.
6. Apparatus
6.1 Analytical balance, with precision to 0.1 mg.
6.2 Water bath, capable of maintaining 85 °C 62 °C.
6.3 Ice water bath.

mum of a 20 cm diameter rotor.

NOTE 2—It is recommended that a calibration validation standard be
analyzed once every ten samples to ensure instrument stability across the
sample set.
10.2 It is recommended that samples be analyzed the day
the hydrolysis assay is completed. If a delay in HPLC analysis
occurs, the samples may be stored in a refrigerator (2 °C to
4 °C) for no longer than three days. Delays longer than three
days will require that the hydrolysis assay be repeated on a
fresh portion of test sample.
10.3 Calibration standards may be prepared or purchased
from several vendors. Prepared standards should be stored in a
refrigerator (2 °C to 4 °C) or according to manufacturer in-
structions.
10.4 Create a calibration curve using a linear regression.
Using the curve, determine the concentration in g/100 mL for
all samples, standard(s), and the reagent blank.
10.5 Calibration verification standards and reference mate-
rials must have a % recovery between 95 % to 105 % for all
components of interest for any sample results to be accepted.
11. Procedure
11.1 Acid Hydrolysis Procedure—High Concentration:
11.1.1 Weigh out 500 mg 610 mg of sample into a tared
centrifuge tube and record weight to the nearest 0.1 mg.
11.1.2 A reagent blank and standard(s) must also be pre-
pared with each sample set.
11.1.2.1 D-(+)-xylose should be analyzed as a quality con-
trol standard with each sample set. Recovery of the
D-(+)-xylose should be > 95 % to consider results accurate and
valid. This recovery ensures assay procedures, HPLC
performance, and calculations are being applied correctly.
Recovery of the D-(+)-xylose used in the assay should be
calculated using the formula in 12.1.
NOTE 3—The recovery of the monosaccharide standard is not used to
correct or calculate the hemicellulose result according to 12.2.
11.1.3 Add 2.0 mL of 60 % w/w sulfuric acid to each tube
with a positive displacement automatic pipettor.
11.1.4 Cap tubes and mix each sample vigorously on vortex
mixer until the entire sample goes into suspension.
11.1.5 Incubate samples in an ice water bath for 30 min
total.
11.1.6 Samples must be vortexed, approximately 30 s, at the
halfway point (15 min) during incubation window.
11.1.7 Remove samples from ice water bath after 30 min.
11.2 Acid Hydrolysis Procedure—Low Concentration:
11.2.1 With a positive displacement automatic pipettor, add
15.0 mL of DI water to each tube, cap tubes and vortex each
sample.
11.2.2 Incubate samples in an 85 °C 62 °C water bath for
5 h.
11.2.3 Samples must be vortexed, approximately 30 s, at the
halfway point (2.5 h or 150 min) during incubation window.
11.2.4 Remove samples from water bath at 5 h.
11.2.5 Add 18.0 mL of DI water to each tube, including the
blank and standard, and vortex approximately 30 s to ensure
homogeneity.
11.2.6 Pour supernatant into syringe fitted with syringe filter
and add sufficient sample to fill HPLC vial.
11.2.6.1 Centrifuging the samples for 5 min at 5000 rpm
may help filtration if desired.
11.3 HPLC Analysis Procedure:
11.3.1 Following filtration and aliquoting, analyze the
standards, blank, and samples via HPLC-RID using the param-
eters listed below in Table 2.
NOTE 4—HPLC parameters may vary if an alternative column is
utilized for the analysis.
12. Calculation
