Xylose–glucose co-fermentation to ethanol by Escherichia coli strain MS04 using single- and two-stage continuous cultures under micro-aerated conditions

Abstract Background Simultaneous co-fermentation of mixed sugars is an important feature to consider in the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysates because it enhances the overall ethanol yield and volumetric productivity during fermentation. Continuous cultures can be used d...
