| 21. | Glucose isomerase also has a much higher affinity for xylose than for glucose, necessitating a carefully controlled environment.
|
| 22. | An extensive adaptation process was used to improve xylose fermentation in " Z . mobilis " .,
|
| 23. | Xylosan is the dehydrated product of the 5-carbon xylose sugar monomer, a major component of hemicellulose.
|
| 24. | They further tested carcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as well as the structure of the enzyme xylose isomerase.
|
| 25. | Xylose is metabolised by humans, though it is not a major human nutrient and largely excreted by the kidneys.
|
| 26. | In animal medicine, xylose is used to test for malabsorption by administration in water to the patient after fasting.
|
| 27. | For example, in the hydrolysate of corn stover, approximately 30 % of the total fermentable sugars is xylose.
|
| 28. | In cases of bacterial overgrowth, the values of D-xylose absorption return to normal after treatment with antibiotics.
|
| 29. | The use of glucose isomerase very efficiently converts xylose to xylulose, which can then be acted upon by fermenting yeast.
|
| 30. | For instance, besides glucose, sugar monomers in hemicellulose can include xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose.
