Abstract
⺠Solubilization of Avicel is much faster by Clostridium thermocellum than SSF but it is not true for AFEX CS. ⺠Initial catalyst or inhibition of cell growth cannot explain the difference of C. thermocellum on the two substrates. ⺠Initial catalyst loading impacts final cellulose conversion for SSF but not for C. thermocellum. ⺠C. thermocellum derives more benefit from cell-associated cellulosome while growing on Avicel as compared to AFEX CS. ⺠Particle size reduction is more effective than hemicellulose removal on cellulose solubilization by C. thermocellum.
