Second-generation ethanol production by Wickerhamomyces anomalus strain adapted to furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and high osmotic pressure

Abstract The aims of this work were to improve cell tolerance towards high concentrations of furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) of an osmotolerant strain of Wickerhamomyces anomalus by means of evolutionary engineering, and to determine its ethanol production under stress conditions. Cells w...
