Figure 4

Concentration of inhibitory byproducts in the hydrolysate obtained after the steam pretreatment of sugar cane leaves at different conditions. The pretreatment combined severity factor for each set is also shown. Striped columns correspond to cut, not milled, sugar cane leaves. For two of the samples the concentration of furfural was low and could not be evaluated in the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) chromatogram due to overlap with other peaks.
