| effects of lignin-derived phenolic compounds on xylitol production and key enzyme activities by a xylose utilizing yeast candida athensensis sb18. | candida athensensis sb18 is potential xylitol producing yeast isolated in singapore. it has excellent xylose tolerance and is able to produce xylitol in high titer and yield. however, by-products, such as phenolic compounds, derived in lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysate might negatively influence the performance of this strain for xylitol production. in this work, four potential phenolic inhibitors, such as vanillin, syringaldehyde, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and phenol, were evaluated for their inh ... | 2012 | 22864173 |
