Abstract
⺠The work compared two major influences of lignin during the enzymatic hydrolysis of steam pretreated Douglas-fir. ⺠The overall inhibitory effect of lignin is dependent on enzyme loading and cellulose accessibility. ⺠At low enzyme loading, lignin's influence on both limited cellulose accessibility and unproductive binding were at play. ⺠The impact of lignin's enzyme binding was also dependent on how accessible the cellulose was. ⺠The cumulative effect of lignin is thus, ultimately dependent on overall cellulose accessibility.
