Article Title: How recombinant swollenin from Kluyveromyces lactis affects cellulosic substrates and accelerates their hydrolysis

doi: 10.1186/1754-6834-4-33

Figure Lengend Snippet: Influence of crystallinity and mean particle size on hydrolysis of cellulosic substrates . Data points for cellulosic substrates were obtained from Figure 5 (mean particle size), Figure 6 (crystallinity index) and Figure 7 (initial hydrolysis rate from 0 to 6 h). TableCurve 3D was used to determine an empirical surface fit ( R 2 = 0.93) based on a non-linear Gaussian cumulative function.

Article Snippet: TableCurve 3D 4.0 (Systat Software, San Jose, CA, USA) was used to empirically correlate CrI and mean particle size with initial hydrolysis rates via the non-linear Gaussian cumulative function: (3) z = G C U M X ( a , b , c ) + G C U M Y ( d , e , f ) + G C U M X ( g , b , c ) ⋅ G C U M Y ( 1 , e , f ) in which a, b, c, d, e, f and g denote the various fitting parameters of the non-linear Gaussian cumulative function (-).
