## Abstract Hydrolysis of organic particulates in rapid fermentative processes can be inhibited. The volatile fatty acids (VFA) released during fermentation reduce pH. Whether VFA or the drop in pH inhibits hydrolysis is unclear. The effects of pH and acetate on the enzymatic hydrolysis of a potato
The production of sugars by the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose is a two-step process that includes conversion of the intermediate cellobiose to glucose by p-glucosidase. The hydrolysis was followed by analyzing the two sugar products (cellobiose and glucose). The enzyme showed maximum activity at
