Notes:
Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose is potentially an attractive method for converting cellulose into glucose which can then be used as a chemical feed or as a growth substrate for a number of microorganisms to produce microbial products.An enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat straw with cellulase preparation “Trichocease” was made. The wheat straw used was pretreated mechanically and with NaOH. A procedure of pretreatment was investigated in 26 variants. The dynamics of enzymatic hydrolysis was studied. An assay of this dynamics based on the amount of reducing sugars formed during the cellulase reaction and depending upon enzyme and substrate concentration and time of action was carried out.
