ALTERATION OF BIOMASS COMPOSITION IN RESPONSE TO CHANGING SUBSTRATE PARTICLE SIZE AND THE CONSEQUENCES FOR ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS OF CORN BRAN
Corn bran is a by-product from corn starch processing. This work examined the effects of changing substrate particle size on enzymatic hydrolysis of both raw and pretreated destarched corn bran. The biomass composition of the corn bran varied between particle size fractions: The largest particles ([...
