The potential for recombinant cellulases from fungi to hydrolyze oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) into simple sugars was investigated. A mixture of two recombinant enzymes consisting of a cellobiohydrolase from Trichoderma reesei and an endoglucanase from Aspergillus niger, was evaluated for O...
