Hello

For an experiment, I´m interested in rapidly removing the phenolic compounds from recently-excised pine branches (small branches, 1-2cm wide and 10cm long) without destroying/damaging the internal anatomical structure of the branches.

I was thinking of heating the wood, but at what temperatures and for how long to prevent the destruction/damage of the cell tissues? Is there any other method (chemical treatment?)

Thanks

Pedro
