The maximum specific growth rate (μ_max) is represented in h^-1. The specific consumption rate of sugars (r _sugars), specific conversion rate of HMF (r _HMF), furfural (r _fur) and specific ethanol productivity (r _E) are represented in g g cell dry weight^-1 h^-1. The yield of biomass (Y _X/S), ethanol (Y _E/S) and glycerol (Y _gly/S) are represented in g g consumed sugars^-1. All values are calculated during the exponential phase identified by natural logarithm of biomass and culture time. The values are average from duplicate experiments and ± indicates deviation from the mean. ^*Specific consumption rate of glucose and mannose, since during the exponential phase glucose and mannose are co-consumed.
