represents approximately 20% of its total weight, and is one of the largest sources of wastes in the agronomic industry sector [2,3]. Although somestudies investigated the use of this agro industrial byproduct forobtaining value-added products, such as ethanol and xylitol [4–6],pectinases [7] and tannases [8], its current utilization has beenlimited to nutritional supplements for animal feed [9]. Thus, it isnecessary to conduct further studies to evaluate their use in theproduction of high value added products.
