Corecovery of Bio-Oil and Fermentable Sugars from Oil-Bearing Biomass

Table 2

Initial rates of fermentable sugar formed during hydrolysis of safflower whole seeds. Initial hydrolysis rates were calculated from the data obtained during the first 10 minutes of hydrolysis.

wt% [C2mim][Ac]	Initial rate of formation (mg/mL/min)^a
	70%	100%
glucose	0.43 (0.007)	0.44 (0.002)
xylose	0.12 (0.022)	0.12 (0.019)

aThe reported values are averages of two samples. The values in brackets are the deviations of the measured values from the mean.
