In this study, autohydrolyzate from hot water treatment of Miscanthus lignocellulosic biomass was evaluated for its prebiotic effect by fermentation of Lactobacillus brevis strain. The cell growth on raw autohydrolyzate-supplemented media was comparable to the sample grown on glucose until an incubation time of 24 h then gradually declined. Autohydrolyzate contains various inhibitors (25.9% of total dissolved solids) and it was determined that dissolved lignin had a significant inhibitory effect to bacterial growth. When the autohydrolyzate was purified using a hydrophobic resin, purified autohydrolyzate exhibited high bacterial growth (cell density (OD 600) of 4.8) and high acid production (7.7 and 3.1 g/L of lactic and acetic acid, respectively), which was comparable with commercial xylooligosaccharides. In conclusion, mixed oligosaccharides in the autohydrolyzate from Miscanthus have considerable potential as a prebiotic and are comparable with commercial xylooligosaccharides derived products.}, journal={LWT}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Hong, Changyoung and Corbett, Derek and Venditti, Richard and Jameel, Hasan and Park, Sunkyu}, year={2019}, month={Aug}, pages={703–710} }

Further research is necessary to understand the effects of mechanical refining at different conditions to allow for further optimization of the process. In this research, the impact of refining intensity (specific edge load; kWh/m) is investigated by the use of multiple refining passes to reach equivalent total specific refining energy (SRE) using a 12-in. disk refiner. In addition, the effect of adjusting gap-width vs adjusting consistency to increase refining energy is explored. Results show that enzymatic carbohydrate conversion is a function of SRE, independent of refining intensity. At lower enzyme loadings, gap-width adjustments were observed to be most effective at improving enzymatic digestibility. At higher enzyme loadings carbohydrate conversions leveled-off slightly as SRE increased, implying that there may be an economically optimum degree of refining.}, number={43}, journal={Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research}, publisher={American Chemical Society (ACS)}, author={Corbett, Derek B. and Venditti, Richard and Jameel, Hasan and Park, Sunkyu}, year={2018}, month={Oct}, pages={14648–14655} }
