Sentence examples for cellulose consumption from inspiring English sources
The final metabolite product profiles and cellulose consumption are summarized in Figure 8.
The cellulose consumption and bacterial growth for each strain are shown in Fig. 5a, b, respectively.
As a consequence, cellulose consumption was increased 150% compared to the wild-type (WT) [ 9].
In contrast, the strain producing the cellulosomal form of Cel9A (Cel9Ac) displayed an unexpected profile of cellulose consumption.
The cellulose consumption was determined with glucose as the standard as previously described [ 9] with minor modifications.
As reported in Fig. 5a, a significant cellulose consumption by the strain secreting the free Cel9A occurred sooner than for the two other strains.
Cellulose synthesis requires consumption of a large amount of carbon source, mainly sucrose.
Thus the presumed enhanced cellulolytic capacity of the strain secreting free Cel9A suggested by the data obtained on filter paper, was clearly confirmed by the growth on microcrystalline cellulose and its consumption by this recombinant strain of R. cellulolyticum.
The positive effect on glucose yields of adding Mn2+ to the cultures could be explained from two findings: the release of several isoforms of cellulase showed some degree of inhibition, which probably caused a decrease in cellulose degradation and consumption, and the induction of MnP that presumably produced an enhancement in cellulose accessibility during the enzymatic hydrolysis.
When C. thermocellum was cultured alone on the medium for 10 days, the maximum consumption of cellulose was approximately 234 mM, and most cellulose remained in the broth.
The "free" cellulosomes could aid in targeting catalytic subunits, involved in hydrolysis of non-cellulosic material, to surfaces of complex substrates for exposing the preferred substrate of cellulose for hydrolysis and consumption.
