Bagasse sampling and compositional analysis. a Photos of the Rocky Point bagasse pile and samples taken at different positions in the pile. b Glucan and xylan as % of total solids in five different bagasse samples. Glucan was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in Samples1 and 4 compared to others and xylan was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in Sample 4 compared to others. c Galactan and arabinan as % of total solids in five different bagasse samples. Both were significantly lower in Samples 1 and 4 compared to others (p < 0.01). d Acid insoluble and soluble lignin as % of total solids in five different bagasse samples. Acid soluble lignin was significantly lower in Samples 1 and 4 (p < 0.05). Error is standard deviation and n = 3
