Cellulosic hydrolysate toxicity and tolerance mechanisms in <it>Escherichia coli</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>The sustainable production of biofuels will require the efficient utilization of lignocellulosic biomass. A key barrier involves the creation of growth-inhibitory compounds by chemical pretreatment steps, which ultimately reduce the efficiency of fermentative mic...
