DOI: 10.1007/s12649-016-9769-9
Abstract: Enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass is a crucial step for bioethanol production. Highly balanced composition of cellulases and hemicellulases are required for effective bioconversion of lignocellulose into fermentable sugars. As commercial cellulases are often poor… read more here.
