Abstract
Aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) was applied for extraction bioconversion of xylan by xylanase from Trichoderma viride. Phase diagrams for poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) and sodium citrate were determined at room temperature. The ATPS composed of 12.99% (w/w) PEG6000 and 12.09% (w/w) sodium citrate was favorable for partition of xylanase and used for extraction bioconversion of xylan. Batch hydrolysis demonstrated that higher concentrations of xylobiose and xylotriose were obtained in the PEG6000/sodium citrate ATPS compared to those in the aqueous system. These results present the potential feasibility of production of xylo-oligosaccharides by extraction bioconversion in ATPS.
