Evaluación de la sacarificación de yuca mediante el proceso convencional y el proceso low-energy, para su posterior determinación de la cinética de reacción

Abstract

This work evaluated the attempts to obtaining fermentable sugars took from starchy materials; in this particular case starch, which cover the tracing of the reaction of enzymatic hydrolysis for the subsequent determination of the kinetic reaction (formation of product in function of time); the first step considered the conventional process that consists in liquefaction and saccharification, in uncharged to a commercial alpha-amylase and gluco-amylase respectively, the second step was the action bi-functional by only one commercial enzyme, this was analyzed separating the two constitutive parts of the starch: the inside parenchyma and the extern parenchyma. Finally the raw material was distinguished as far as its composition, moistness percent, protein and for last contend of starch in dry low.
