“…This hypothesis gains strength, particularly since this experiment was characterized by the production of high concentrations of total VFAs (approximately 3444 mgHAc/L) and the use of a substrate with a low carbohydrate concentration (546.34 mg/L), in contrast to the concentrations present in the substrate utilized in our previous experiments. As reported by de Oliveira Schmidt et al [42], the composition of CWW includes glucose, cyanide, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and minerals, which vary depending on environmental factors like soil, climate, and variety of cassava. According to Yu and Fang [43], acetate, propionate, butyrate, and i-butyrate can directly result from the fermentation of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.…”
