Abstract
A fed-batch culture system was used to study xylitol production by Candida guilliermondii FTI 20037 in a synthetic and a sugar cane bagasse hydrolysat e medium. The values achieved for xylitol yield and volumetric productivity were, respectively, 0.84 g g(-1) and 0.64 g l(-1) h(-1) using the syntheti c medium and 0.78 g g(-1) and 0.62 g l(-1) h(-1) using the hydrolysate medi um.
