Studies on the kinetics and metabolic pathways of CBZ in plant tissues are still limited. In the present study, the phytotransformation of 14C-CBZ was explored. The 14C detected in bound residues was lower than in extractable residues (>85% of the uptaken 14C radioactivity) in plant tissues. CBZ underwent appreciable transformation in plants. A large portion of accumulated 14C radioactivity (80.3 ± 6.4%) in the cells was distributed in the cell water-soluble fraction. A total of nine radioactive transformation products of CBZ were identified, three of which were generated in vivo due to the contraction of the heterocycle ring. The proposed metabolic pathways revealed that conjugation with glutathione or phenylacetic acid was the major transformation pathway of CBZ in plants, with the contribution of epoxidation, hydroxylation, methoxylation, methylation, amination, and sulfonation.Enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan represents a promising way to produce xylooligosaccharide (XOS), which is a novel ingredient in functional food. However, the recalcitrance of xylan in natural lignocellulosic biomass entails effective and robust xylanases. In the present study, we reported the isolation of a thermophilic Streptomyces sp. B6 from mushroom compost producing high xylanase activity. Two xylanases of Streptomyces sp. B6 belonging to GH10 (XynST10) and GH11 (XynST11) families were thus identified and biochemically characterized to be robust enzymes with high alkaline- and thermostability. Direct hydrolysis of neutralized viscose fiber production waste using XynST10 and XynST11 showed that while XynST10 produced 23.22 g/L XOS with a degree of polymerization (DP) of 2-4 and 9.27 g/L xylose, XynST11 produced much less xylose (1.19 g/L) and a higher amounts of XOS with a DP = 2
