1. A method of adsorbing xylan onto a substrate, the method comprising the steps of:

  • enzymatically modifying xylan which contains glucuronic acid and/or arabinose side chains so that it has reduced solubility in water compared to naturally occurring xylan, by selectively removing glucuronic acid and/or arabinose side chains with one or both of α

    -D-glucuronidase and α

    -L-arabinofuranosidase; and

    allowing the modified xylan to adsorb onto the substrate.
