Influence of aeration and reductant supplementation on enzymatic hydrolysis yields using Cellic CTec2. Enzymatic hydrolysis of A–C STEX210°C/auto, D–F STEX210°C/HAc, and G STEX210°C/SO2 with or without 10 mM ascorbic acid. Different final reaction weights (1.8, 10, and 20 g) corresponding to different headspace volumes (10%, 80%, and 60%, respectively) of the total reaction volume were assessed. Release of A, D, G glucose; B, E xylose; and C, F mannose after 48 h of hydrolysis. Data represent mean values ± standard deviation of triplicate experiments. Please note that the scales have been adjusted for clarity. Where error bars are not represented, they are below 0.5%
