    Delignification of Corncob by Choline Chloride-Urea Deep Eutectic Solvent for Enzymatic Production of Xylooligosaccharides
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024) Yanak,S.; Buyukkileci,A.O.
    Deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment was applied to corncob to obtain xylooligosaccharides (XOS) by enzymatic hydrolysis using xylanase. Based on the XOS titers in the hydrolysate, urea was the most effective among the hydrogen bond donors tested to couple choline chloride (ChCl). DES pretreatment at 130 °C for two hours with ChCl-Urea (molar ratio of 1:2) containing 40 % water, decreased lignin fraction from 12.8 % to 6.9 %, while 79 % of the xylan was retained in the pretreated corncob. The highest XOS production was obtained using 400 U/g xylanase at 60 °C, which yielded 12.0 g/L XOS with a low degree of polymerization (LDP-XOS). The total XOS yield based on the raw corncob was calculated as 14.4 %, 90 % of which was LDP-XOS. The cellulose-rich residual biomass could be hydrolyzed enzymatically to glucose with 65 % cellulose digestibility. The discarded biomass after hydrolyzes was 21.7 % of the raw material. The results showed that DES was a promising pretreatment for enhancing enzymatic XOS production. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
