Enzymatic hydrolysis of aspen biomass into fermentable sugars by using lignocellulases from Armillaria gemina

► It reports saccharification of biomasses using lignocellulase from Armillaria gemina. ► Among the biomasses tested, aspen biomass produces maximum reducing sugar. ► Response surface methodology is used to optimize the hydrolysis of aspen biomass. ► A. gemina can be a good option for reducing sugar production from woody biomasses.
