Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant organic compound in the biosphere. In nature, crystalline cellulose is hydrolysed by specific enzymes called cellulases. Understanding the physico‐chemical nature of these enzymatic processes will be essential for developing new energy saving and non polluting methods for cellulose degradation and modification.
