Isolation, Identification and Spoilage Capability of Specific Spoilage Organisms on Silage During Aerobic Deterioration

open access: yesFermentation
Silage is a core roughage resource for ruminant production, but aerobic deterioration caused by microorganisms severely reduces its nutritional value and increases microbial risk. This study aimed to isolate and identify specific spoilage organisms (SSOs)

Study on various degradation mechanisms of lignocellulose during spontaneous ensiling and their contributions to 2G bioethanol production

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
The degradation of lignocellulose during spontaneous ensiling is known to exist, probably from the action of microorganisms, enzymes and acids. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the three lignocellulosic degradation mechanisms in the above processes,
