Research progress in microorganism for ethanol fermentation by pentose

Xiaojun Su

Abstract

Bioconversion of lignocelluloses to ethanol has become a global research focus in recent years.The breed of microbes for fermenting pen-tose to ethanol is one of the key technologies.The mechanism of bioconversion of pentose to ethanol is introduced in this paper.The advances on the natural strains of pentose fermentation and genetic improvement were reviewed.In addition,the research prospect was discussed.
