Fig. 6From: Screening and evolution of a novel protist xylose isomerase from the termite Reticulitermes speratus for efficient xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Anaerobic batch fermentation on glucose/xylose mixture. Fermentation of glucose/xylose by yeast strains WR311 (a), WP111 (b), and WC111 (c) was carried out in medium containing 30 g/l glucose and 20 g/l xylose under anaerobic condition. Amounts of ethanol, glycerol, and xylitol produced as a result of fermentation are indicated on the right-hand Y-axis. The data points shown are averages of three independent experiments. Deviations were always below 10% of the averageBack to article page
