Fig. 1From: Model-based optimization of Scheffersomyces stipitis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae co-culture for efficient lignocellulosic ethanol productionFermentation kinetics of S. cerevisiae (a), S. stipitis (b) and co-culture of S. stipitis and S. cerevisiae (c) in glucose–xylose mixture. Time profiles of glucose (blue), xylose (red), ethanol (green) and biomass (black) in S. cerevisiae, S. stipitis, and S. stipitis/S. cerevisiae co-culture at initial cell ratio f = 1.0 are shown. A good agreement between measured values (symbols) and predicted values (solid lines) validates the kinetic model. The results are based on average of duplicate experimentsBack to article page
