The effect of switchgrass loadings on feedstock solubilization and biofuel production by Clostridium thermocellum

Abstract Background Efficient deconstruction and bioconversion of solids at high mass loadings is necessary to produce industrially relevant titers of biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass. To date, only a few studies have investigated the effect of solids loadings on microorganisms of interest for...
