Conversion of D‐xylose to ethanol by the yeast Pachysolen tannophilus
Abstract
The yeast Pachysolen tannophilus was found to be capable of converting D‐xylose to ethanol. Batch cultures initially containing 50 g/L D‐xylose yielded 0.34 g of ethanol per gram of pentose consumed. Aerobic conditions were required for cell growth but not for ethanol production. Both alcohol formation and growth were optimum when incubation temperature was 32°C, when pH was near 2.5, and when D‐xylose and ethanol concentrations did not exceed 50 and 20 g/L, respectively.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
