Optimization of Arundo donax Saccharification by (Hemi)cellulolytic Enzymes from Pleurotus ostreatus

Figure 3

Thermoresistance of (a) cellulase and (b) xylanase activities of the strain Pleurotus ostreatus. The thermoresistance of the xylanase and cellulase activities was investigated by incubating the fungal culture supernatant in 50 mM Na citrate pH 5.3, at 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80°C. The percentage values reported in the graphs are referred to the initial enzymatic activities of 100%.
