✦ Synopsis

A mutant strain of Candida sp. XF 217, was found to produce ethanol from D-xylose aerobically as weil as anaerobically. The rate of ethanol production under aerobic conditions was greater, indicating an oxygen requirement for the uptake of D-xylose in XF 217. Ethanol was also produced by XF 217 when D-glucose, D-fructose, sucrose or maltose were used as substrates. The D-xylose fermenting yeast strain is a potential organism to use for ethanol production from renewable biomass-derived hexoses and pentoses.

Substrates that contain hexose as well as pentose sugars can form an interesting substrate for the production of ethanol. Pichia stipitis and a respiratorydeficient mutant of Saccharomyces diastaticus were used to convert such a substrate into ethanol under continuous culture conditions. With a suga
