High-efficient xylitol production by evolved Candida maltosa adapted to corncob hemicellulosic hydrolysate

摘要

BACKGROUND: To compete with chemical hydrogenation, xylitol production by a biotechnological method has to decrease production cost by improving the performance of the strain, using low-cost substrate and developing a simple and efficient bioprocess. This study attempted to reach high-efficient xylitol production using cheap substrate.
