Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): Efficient enzymatic saccharification of plant cell wall material is key to industrial processing of agricultural and forestry waste such as straw and wood chips into fuels and chemicals.', "Saccharification assays were performed on steam-pretreated wheat straw under ambient and O2-deprived environments and in the absence and presence of a lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) and catalase. A kinetic model was used to calculate catalytic rate and first-order inactivation rate constants of the cellulases from reaction progress curves. The addition of a LPMO significantly (P\xa0<\xa00.01, Student's T test) enhanced the rate of glucose release from 2.8 to 6.9\xa0h(-1) under ambient O2 conditions. However, this also significantly (P\xa0<\xa00.01, Student's T test) increased the rate of inactivation of the enzyme mixture, thereby reducing the performance half-life from 65 to 35\xa0h. Decreasing O2 levels or, strikingly, the addition of catalase significantly reduced (P\xa0<\xa00.01, Student's T test) enzyme inactivation and, as a consequence, higher efficiency of the cellulolytic enzyme cocktail was achieved.
