    Abstract: Ethanol producing from biomass has become an interesting substitute to petrolium in the struggle against raised levels of fossil carbon dioxide emission to the atmosphere. The biotechnological conversion of biomass into fuels requires hydrolysis of the polysaccharide fraction into monomeric sugars. This study was aimed at the optimization of the pr... Show More
