Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable and abundant resource with great potential for
bioconversion to value-added bioproducts. However, the biorefining process remains …

Biological conversion of cellulosic biomass to fuels and chemicals offers the high yields to
products vital to economic success and the potential for very low costs. Enzymatic hydrolysis …

Enzymes of microbial origin are of immense importance for organic material decomposition
leading to bioremediation of organic waste, bioenergy generation, large-scale industrial …

Production of high grade cellulolytic enzymes from waste agricultural biomass would
valorise these wastes to valuable products as well as avoid the pollution problems …

A cellulase-producing bacterium was isolated from soil and identified as Cellulomonas sp.
YJ5. Maximal cellulase activity was obtained after 48 h of incubation at 30° C in a medium …

Production of β‐glucosidase from Fusarium oxysporum was investigated during degradation
of some cellulosic substrates (Avicel, α‐cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and …

While soil enzymes have been explicitly included in the soil organic carbon (SOC)
decomposition models, there is a serious lack of suitable data for model parameterization …

A new gene, RuCelA, encoding a bifunctional xylanase/endoglucanase, was cloned from a
metagenomic library of yak rumen microorganisms. RuCelA showed activity against xylan …

Insects living on wood and plants harbor a large variety of bacterial flora in their guts for
degrading biomass. We isolated a Paenibacillus strain, designated ICGEB2008, from the gut …

This study presents the sono-assisted pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification of
sugarcane bagasse (SCB) for the production of bioethanol. The effect of sono-assisted alkali …
