Abstract
Chemical components content of seven Indonesian bamboo species were investigated. Bamboo species used in this study including Andong bamboo (Gigantochloa pseudoarundinacea), Tali bamboo (G.apus), Hitam bamboo (G. artoviolacea), Betung bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper), Sembilang bamboo (D. giganteus), Ampel bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris var. vulgaris), and Kuning bamboo (B. vulgaris var. striata). Holocellulose, alphacellulose, Klason lignin, acid-soluble lignin, extractives content, and pH value were determined. The highest holocellulose and alphacellulose content were found in Ampel and Hitam bamboo, respectively. Sembilang bamboo has the highest lignin content. Generally, Ampel bamboo has the highest extractives content. The pH value of the seven bamboo species showed that all bamboo species tend to be acidic.
