AbstractJute stick was treated with white‐rot fungus for incubation periods of 6 days (MBA) and 12 days (MBB). The infrared spectra of fungus treated samples (MBA and MBB) and control jute stick (MBC) were analyzed and compared. The bands attributed mainly to hemicellulose show an increase in absorbance intensity ratios (Aν/A2900) with increase of incubation time. Similarly the bands attributed to lignin show an increase in the absorbance intensity ratios with increase of incubation time. Increase in the intensity of 1635 cm−1band with increase of incubation time was also obse
