| Abstract: | Summary With pure D-xylulose as substrate, Schizosaccharomyces pombe produced ethanol in good yield with low quantities of polyols as by-products. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was found to be a good alcohol producer in glucose but not as good in D-xylulose. Other yeast cultures converted D-xylulose to xylitol, or D-arabitol or both, with lower ethanol yield. |
