Table 6.

Amounts of ferulic acids or reducing sugars released from maize cob by feruloyl esterases of strain H1 with cellulase or xylanase^a

Enzyme	Material released	Amt released with:
		No enzyme	FaeI	FaeII	FaeIII
Fae alone	Ferulic acid	0.0	2.0 ± 0.1	2.6 ± 0.2	0.6 ± 0.1
Cellulase	Ferulic acid	0.0	2.5 ± 0.1	2.7 ± 0.1	0.9 ± 0.1
	Reducing sugar	61.8 ± 3.4	72.3 ± 6.0	40.8 ± 3.0	40.4 ± 2.6
Xylanase	Ferulic acid	0.0	2.2 ± 0.1	2.7 ± 0.1	0.8 ± 0.0
	Reducing sugar	19.9 ± 1.5	27.2 ± 2.1	25.3 ± 2.0	19.0 ± 1.7

^aReleased materials are calculated as 1 μmol of released ferulic acid or reducing sugar per mg of protein in 6 h of incubation.
