Table 4 Xylose consumption and xylitol productivity from the fermentation of β-xylosidase using Pichia stipitis

Fermentation time (h)	Xylose^a (g/l)	Ethanol (g/l)	Xylitol (g/l)
48	2.3	7.2	16.29
72	0.94	11.06	21.51
96	0.52	8.85	19.31

^aAt the beginning of the fermentation process, the total sugar in the hydrolysate was 51.21 g/l. After the fermentation process, it was 5.03 g/l
