Implication

Randomized trial investigates sugar conversion from oat hulls using enzyme cocktails, indicating potential for bioeconomic applications.

Key Points

  • This research aims to enhance the valorization of oat hulls through enzymatic hydrolysis using various enzyme cocktails.
  • Oat hulls were used in native form and after chemical pretreatment.
  • Three enzyme preparations were tested: Agrocell Plus, CelloLux-A, and Ultraflo Max.
  • Scanning electron microscopy was utilized to visualize the hydrolysis process.
  • The enzyme cocktail achieved a 45% conversion of native oat hulls with glucose making up 41% of total reducing sugars.
  • Chemically pretreated oat hulls yielded 1.4–1.8 times more reducing sugars than individual enzymes.
  • The cocktail provided a 99% conversion of the accessible fraction, with glucose contributing 85–91% to the concentration of reducing sugars.
