A study of cellobiose fermentation by a Dekkera strain.
The Dekkera intermedia strain studied has the ability to ferment cellobiose. The ethanol concentration obtained was 75 g/L from 180 g/L cellobiose (80% of theoretical yield). The fermentation of more concentrated solutions of cellobiose did not proceed well.
