Table 2.

Biomass pretreated with IL at 50 or 120°C and enzymatically hydrolyzed by 15 FPU/ g glucan Spezyme CP and 30 CBU/g glucan Novozyme 188 at 1 % (w/v) solid loading. Wet: Hydrolysis on wet substrate after IL treatment and displacement with water. Dry: Hydrolysis of substrates dried after IL treatment and displacement with water. Results are an average of duplicates with less than 8% deviation between samples.
