## Abstract The fermentation of mixtures of Dβglucose and Dβxylose by three nonβtraditional yeasts: __Candida shehatae__ (ATCC 34887), __Pachysolen tannophilus__ (ATCC 32691) and __Pichia stipitis__ (ATCC 58376) have been studied to determine the optimal strain and initial culture conditions for th
## Yeasts capable of fermenting both o-xylose and cellobiose to ethanol were screened. Of 213 species of yeasts surveyed, Kluyveromyces cellobiovorus sp. nov.. a new species belonging to genus of Kluyveromyces, was selected as the sole strain. This strain accumulated 32, 22, and 19 g/L of ethanol
