  • Title: Enzymatic conversion of xylan residues from dilute acid-pretreated corn stover.
    Author: Shekiro J, Kuhn EM, Selig MJ, Nagle NJ, Decker SR, Elander RT.
    Journal: Appl Biochem Biotechnol; 2012 Sep; 168(2):421-33. PubMed ID: 22847186.
    Abstract:
    Enzymatic conversion of oligomeric xylose and insoluble xylan remaining after effective pretreatment offers significant potential to improve xylan-to-xylose yields while minimizing yields of degredation products and fermentation inhibitors. In this work, a commercial enzyme cocktail is demonstrated to convert up to 70 % of xylo-oligomers found in dilute acid-pretreated hydrolyzate liquor at varying levels of dilution when supplemented with accessory enzymes targeting common side chains. Commercial enzyme cocktails are also shown to convert roughly 80 % of insoluble xylan remaining after effective high-solids, dilute acid pretreatment.
