Saccharification of biopretreated paddy straw with indigenous holocellulase and fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae LN1 under optimized conditions
Abstract:The current study was aimed at optimizing the fermentation conditions for efficient ethanol production from biologically pretreated paddy straw. The yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae LN1 showed highest fermentation efficiency at pH 5.0 and temperature 30°C. Paddy straw pretreated with fungus Myrothecium roridum LG7 was saccharified with indigenous holocellulase from Aspergillus niger SH3 producing total sugar yield of 26.14 mg/ml with 19.23 mg/ml of glucose. Enzymatic hydrolysate was then fermented using S… Show more
