GLYCOSYLATION METHOD OF ALGAE OR AGRICULTURAL BY-PRODUCTS COMPRISING HIGH-PRESSURE EXTRUSION PULVERIZATION STEP

The present invention relates to a glycosylation method comprising an extrusion pulverization step of biomass such as algae or agricultural by-products, and more specifically, to a glycosylation method of biomass comprising the steps of: homogenizing algae or agricultural by-products so as to crush the same; and extruding and pulverizing the same through a fine diameter tube. According to the present invention, it is possible to hydrolyze, by a high glycosylation rate, a hardly degradable polymer such as cellulose, hemicellulose, starch, conjugated polysaccharides and the like, which is a polysaccharide contained in biomass such as algae or agricultural by-products, through an environmentally friendly process using water.
