Abstract

This study shows that lignocellulosic biomass saccharification work has been carried out with rice-straw by the extracellular enzyme from KMU001, and the enzymes produced in 5%(w/v) wood biomass were characterized by protein and various enzyme activity measurements. Several cellulases such as Endoglucanase(EG), $\beta$-D-1,4-Glucosidase(BGL), Cellobiohydrolase(CBH), and $\beta$-D-1,4-Xylanase (BXL) were detected. Saccharification of rice-straw by the enzyme yielded about 233mg/g of glucose after 48hrs.
