Abstract:
In millennia, there has been increasing research interest in the value ofbio-sourced lignocellulosic biomassin serious consideration of the worldwide economic and environmental pollution issues. Agro-industrial biomass comprised on lignocellulosicwaste, is an inexpensive, renewable, abundant and provides a unique natural resource forlarge-scale and cost-effective bio-energy collection. In the current scenario, efforts are made to briefly review the agro-industrial lignocellulosic biomass as a broad spectrum of several functional ingredients and respective health benefits with special reference to wheat straw. Wheat straw is lignocellulosic materials including cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Its microbial culture is the most important and well-adjusted, for a variety of applications in the fermentation substrate, feed, food, medicine, industry and agriculture in order to increase soil fertility. In industrial fermentation, Wheat Straw can be used as substrates for the production of a wide range of hydrolytic enzymes, drugs, metabolites and other biofuels as a low-cost substrate or a natural source. Wheat straw is a moiety which have health benefits including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-artherogenic, anti-allergenic, antioxidant, anti-thrombotic etc. The bioactive components in wheat straw have potential to reduce CVDs (cardiovascular Diseases)and have protecting effects against numerous disorders likehypercholesterolemia, intermittent claudication, benign prostatic hyperplasia. Furthermore, Wheat straw is the best source for the production of bioethanol, biogas, and biohydrogen in biorefineries because it is a renewable, widely distributed and easily available with very low cost, and its consumption is protected and environment friendly.
