Sir Arthur Harden, was a British
biochemist. He shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1929 with Hans Karl August
Simon von Euler-Chelpin for their investigations into the fermentation of sugar
and fermentative enzymes. Topics covered in this book are: Historical
Introduction, Zymase and its Properties, The Function of Phosphates in Alcoholic
Fermentation, The Co-Enzyme of Yeast-Juice, Action of Some Inhibiting and
Accelerating Agents on the Enzymes of Yeast-Juice, Carboxylase, The By-Products
of Alcoholic Fermentation, The Chemical Changes involved in Fermentation, The
Mechanism of Fermentation.
This book provides important aspects of sustainable degradation of
lignocellulosic biomass which has a pivotal role for the economic production of
several value-added products and biofuels with safe environment. Different
pretreatment techniques and enzymatic hydrolysis process along with the
characterization of cell wall components have been discussed broadly.
