Effect of air-liquid interfacial area on enzymatic hydrolysis of Avicel with and without surfactant. Columns show cellulose conversion after 5, 11, and 17 days of enzymatic hydrolysis of Avicel (1% glucan loading) with 5 mg enzyme (Accellerase® 1500) and with co-addition of 5 mg of Tween 20 added based on per gram glucan in substrate. Reaction volume was kept constant at 10 ml, and reactions were performed in 25, 125, and 500 ml Erlenmeyer flasks. Error bars represent standard deviation from three replicate flasks.
