Mucilage is a typical constituent of secondary cell wall of plants
Polysaccharide components: neutral (arabinose, xylose, galactose)
acidic (rhamnose, fucose, galactose, galacturonic acid)
Polysaccharides from the meal
Water extraction from the meal (after mechanical pressing) is the best method to obtain sample with high swelling abilities.

The VeLiCa biorefinery ……
…resulted in the creation of a portfolio of bio-based products
cutting across many market sectors as well as of a portfolio of
innovative processes for the exploitation of all the parts of the plant
…demonstrated that it is possible to obtain new, high added-value
products from residues thus making again profitable the cultivation of
hemp and flax
…catalyzed the creation of a network of scientists with
complementary expertises
…allowed to grow up young researchers with “tailor-made” profiles
to work in this field.
