Xylanolytic systems free of cellulases

Biotechnological Potential and Production of Xylanolytic Systems Free of Cellulases... 

Xylanolytic enzymes free of cellulases can be applied in the pulp and paper, textile, and food industries and in basic research. However, most microorganisms grown under natural conditions produce both xylanases and cellulases. Strategies to produce xylanolytic systems free of cellulases are elimination of cellulase activity by separation or inhibition, selection and construction of cellulase-negative strains, and finding conditions for separate production of xylanolytic systems by cellulolytic strains.
