Raman spectroscopy effectively distinguishes cellulose decomposition by white-rot and brown-rot fungi.
Chemical libraries were used to extract signals from cellulose and identify specific decomposition effects, notably by different fungi.
Wavenumbers related to oxidation were critical in differentiating between brown-rot and white-rot effects on cellulose.
The methodology could advance understanding of biopolymer decomposition in both controlled and complex environments.
