A calorimetric assay for enzymatic saccharification of biomass
Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2010A limited selection of assay and screening methodologies for cellulolytic enzymes has been stated as a restriction in biomass research. In this report we test the potential of isothermal calorimetry for this purpose. The primary observable in this technique (the heat flow in Watts), scales with the rate of hydrolysis, and unlike other approaches, it ...

Analysis of biomass cellulose in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation processes
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1997A direct method for determining the cellulose content of biomass residues resulting from simultaneous saccharifiaction and fermentation (SSF) experiment has been developed and evaluated. The method improves on classical cellulose assays by incorporating the enzymatic removal of yeast glucans from the biomass residue prior to acid hydrolysis and ...

Cellulase Engineering for Biomass Saccharification
2010The production of biofuel ethanol from sugarcane biomass could be significantly improved by depolymerization of cell wall cellulose to glucose for subsequent fermentation. Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose using a mixture of glucanases has been proposed as a possible technology to achieve this goal.

Mixtures of Thermostable Enzymes Show High Performance in Biomass Saccharification
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2014Optimal enzyme mixtures of six Trichoderma reesei enzymes and five thermostable enzyme components were developed for the hydrolysis of hydrothermally pretreated wheat straw, alkaline oxidised sugar cane bagasse and steam-exploded bagasse by statistically designed experiments.

Saccharification of ionic liquid pretreated biomass with commercial enzyme mixtures
Bioresource Technology, 2010The performance of Spezyme CP, a commercial cellulase system, and Primafast Luna CL, a textile bio-finishing enzyme, on hydrolysis of substrates following ionic liquid pretreatment was evaluated. Ionic liquid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass produces amorphous cellulose with little residual crystallinity and enhances its saccharification.

Saccharification of poplar biomass by using lignocellulases from Pholiota adiposa
Bioresource Technology, 2012A basidiomycetous fungus, identified as Pholiota adiposa SKU0714 on the basis of morphological and phylogenetic analyses, was found to secrete efficient lignocellulose degrading enzymes. The strain showed maximum endoglucanase, cellobiohydrolase and β-glucosidase activities of 26, 32 and 39 U/mL, respectively and also secreted xylanase, laccase ...

Saccharification of woody biomass using glycoside hydrolases from Stereum hirsutum
Bioresource Technology, 2012Enzymatic saccharification of woody biomasses was performed using glycoside hydrolases from Stereum hirsutum, a newly isolated fungal strain found to secrete efficient glycoside hydrolases. The strain showed the highest β-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, endoglucanase, endoxylanase, laccase, and filter paper activity of 10.3, 1.7, 10.3, 29.9, 0.12, and ...

Fungal delignification of lignocellulosic biomass improves the saccharification of cellulosics
Biodegradation, 2010The biological delignification of lignocellulosic feedstocks, Prosopis juliflora and Lantana camara was carried out with Pycnoporus cinnabarinus, a white rot fungus, at different scales under solid-state fermentation (SSF) and the fungal treated substrates were evaluated for their acid and enzymatic saccharification.

Biological Pretreatment of Lignocellulosic Biomass for Enzymatic Saccharification
2013Biological delignification is an attractive approach for pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass. This approach is very cost effective, low-energy requirement, environment friendly, low formation of toxic materials such as furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, etc. Biological approach has been demonstrated using direct microorganism as well as using enzymes

Ethanol production by fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass-derived sugars involves a fairly ancient art and an ever-evolving science. Production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is not avant-garde, and wood ethanol plants have been in existence since at least 1915. Most current ethanol production relies on starch- and sugar-based crops as the
