Process improvement of pharmaceutical grade ethanol production using sweet sorghum

The cooversion of s1arch to sugar can be achieved by hydrolysis process. The two-step enzymatic hydrolysis of sweet sorghum was performed by commercially available a-amylase and glucoamylase and further ethanol fermenlation of the obtained hydro1yzates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied. In or...
