Impact of ammonium sulfite-based sequential pretreatment combinations on two distinct saccharifications of wheat straw.

ABSTRACT: The properties of lignocellulosic substrates obtained from different pretreatments have a big impact on downstream saccharification based on both the fungal cellulase system and the cellulosome-based whole-cell biocatalysis system. However the corresponding effect of these two distinct saccharification strategies has not been comparatively analyzed. In this work, three ammonium sulfite (AS)-based pretreatment combinations (i.e., AS + hydrothermal (HT) pretreatment, AS + xylanase (X) pretreatment, and HT + AS pretreatment) were conducted to treat wheat straw. The obtained pretreated substrates with different properties were saccharified using fungal cellulase or an engineered Clostridium thermocellum strain as the whole-cell biocatalyst, and the ability to release sugar was co
