Journal ArticleDOI

Non-digestible oligosaccharides: A review

TL;DR: Non-digestible oligosaccharides possess important physicochemical and physiological properties, and are claimed to behave as dietary fibers and prebiotics, which gives opportunity for improving of gut microecology including bacterial populations, biochemical profiles and physiological effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening of yeasts for production of xylitol fromd-xylose and some factors which affect xylitol yield inCandida guilliermondii

TL;DR: The results showed that xylitol yield by this strain was affected by the nitrogen source, and was highest at 30–35°C, and could be increased with decreasing aeration rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acid hydrolysis of hemicellulose from sugarcane bagasse

TL;DR: In this article, the hemicellulosic fraction of sugarcane bagasse by sulphuric acid was performed in laboratory (25 mL) and semi-pilot (25 L) reactors under different conditions of temperature, time and acid concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of medium supplementation and pH control on lactic acid production from brewer's spent grain

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of pH control and nutrient supplementation of the hydrolysate on fermentation performance were investigated, and the best result, 35.54 g/l lactic acid (0.99 g/g glucose consumed) was obtained during the pH-controlled fermentation of a cellulose pulp supplemented with MRS components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Utilization of sugar cane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolyzate by Candida guilliermondii for xylitol production

TL;DR: The best treatment was found to be the alteration of pH to 10 with Ca(OH) 2 and its subsequent decrease to 6·5 with H 2 SO 4, since 95% of the original 70 g/liter xylose contained in the hydrolyzate was converted to xylitol with a yield of 0·48 g/g as mentioned in this paper.
