Xylo-oligosaccharides from lignocellulosic materials: chemical structure, health benefits and production by chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis.

TL;DR: The XOS applications described in this paper highlight that they are considered soluble dietary fibers that have prebiotic activity, favoring the improvement of bowel functions and immune function and having antimicrobial and other health benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI

The potential of tailoring the conditions of steam explosion to produce xylo-oligosaccharides from sugarcane bagasse.

TL;DR: The results show that even under a non-optimized condition, SE led to about 40% xylan recovery as XOS, which was comparable to the well-known, multi-step, enzymatic production of XOS from alkaline-extracted xylan, and other commonly employed chemical methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening for yeast with antibacterial properties from an ethanol distillery.

TL;DR: It is expected the decrease of lactic acid bacteria growth in the S. cerevisiae alcoholic fermentation should allow for better control of these bacteria in the process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ethanol biosynthesis by fast hydrolysis of cassava bagasse using fungal amylases produced in optimized conditions

TL;DR: In this article, a fast and inexpensive bioprocess for amylase production, able to hydrolyze complex residues in fermentable sugars to be used for ethanol production was developed.
