Evaluation of high sugar containing corn genotypes as viable feedstocks for decreasing enzyme consumption during dry-grind ethanol production
Requirement of costly enzymes (α-amylase and glucoamylase) for converting starch into glucose before fermentation is considered one of the cost increasing factors for corn ethanol. Enzyme consumptions can possibly be reduced during dry-grind ethanol production by increasing free sugar contents in co...
