presents an analysis of the efficiency of
enzyme utilisation by examining the yield of reducing
sugars on the basis of per unit mass of enzyme used in
the reaction. It shows that enzyme efficiency decreased
with increased enzyme concentration despite the increased
total reducing sugar production.
The above analysis did not consider the effect of
synergistic actions among different cellulase components.
Boussaid and Saddler [21] reported that increasing
cellulase enzyme loading increased the initial rate of
