Cheaper cellulase?
Cellulase in an enzyme used to hydrolyze cellulose to cellubiose and glucose. Its high price has been a hinder to develop ethanol process from lignocelluloses via enzymatic processes. However, it seems the 10-years development at Novozyme (and hopefully Genecor as well) has succeeded to produce cheaper cellulase. I congradulate them for this success and hope to have the cheap cellulase soon in the market. Read more about it here!

This blog is dedicated to collect some interesting news and developments on biofuels, bioenergies, biomaterials and biological treatments of residuals and wastes, as well as my personal opinions in this field.
Just had a biotech business plan project and was looking for some cheap cellulase. Thanks for leading me to Novozyme:)
