Xylan is the most abundant and principal type of hemicellulose. It is a linear polymer of β-D
xylopyranosyl units linked by (1–4) glycosidic bonds. Cellulase-free xylanases are important in pulp
biobleaching as alternatives to the use of toxic chlorinated compounds because of the environmental
hazards and diseases caused by the release of the absorbable organic halogens. Xylanases has a
wide range of applications in pulp and paper, food, animal feed, textiles and pharmaceuticals. In this
review, we have focused on the studies of structural composition of xylan, sources of xylanases,
production of xylanases and their potential industrial applications.
