TABLE 2.

Measured average in vivo rates of specific conversion of furfural and HMF and in vitro enzyme activities^a

Compound	Strain	Mode	In vivo conversion rate (g g biomass⁻¹ h⁻¹)	NADH-dependent in vitro enzyme activity (g g biomass⁻¹ h⁻¹)^b	NADPH-dependent in vitro enzyme activity (g g biomass⁻¹ h⁻¹)^b	Total in vitro enzyme activity (g g biomass⁻¹ h⁻¹)^b
Furfural	CBS 8066	Fed-batch	0.009	0.63	0.041	0.67
	TMB3000	Fed-batch	0.012	1.8	0.21	2.0
HMF	CBS 8066	Fed-batch	0.034	0.004	0.029	0.033
	TMB3000	Fed-batch	0.08	0.78	0.14	0.92

The conversion rates were calculated based on consumption of furfural or HMF during the feeding of hydrolysate. The in vitro furfural- and HMF-reducing activities were measured as described previously (23).

The in vitro activities were recalculated as g furfural or HMF converted g biomass⁻¹ h⁻¹. This was done to enable a comparison between the conversion rates in the fermentations and the in vitro measurements.
