Bioconversion of distillers’ grains hydrolysates to advanced biofuels by an Escherichia coli co-culture

Abstract Background First generation bioethanol production utilizes the starch fraction of maize, which accounts for approximately 60% of the ash-free dry weight of the grain. Scale-up of this technology for fuels applications has resulted in a massive supply of distillers’ grains with solubles (DGS...
