Potential usefulness from degradative

The first group is comprised that of compounds which potentially could be degraded to form G-l-P by phosphorolysis by beta-linkage specific enzymes. They include IPTGlu, cellobiose, sophorose, salicin, and sucrose. Addition of these compounds, or exogenous G-l-P, to Solka Floe fermentations improved maximum cellulase yields from 171 to 309%, and the time period for enzyme synthesis was reduced from 95 to 59% compared with using Solka Floe only.
