Figure 5

Model of the macromolecular assembly based on the SNOM measurements. In Figure 5a latewood cells of spruce are shown and in 5b an illustrated zoom in the layered structure of the secondary cell wall. 5c reflects the measured segmented lamellar structure in the S2 layer and 5d illustrates the presumably underlying structure (red: cellulose fibrils; black: matrix consisting of lignin and hemicelluloses) according to the cell wall model introduced by Kerr and Goring [12].
