PRESERVATION OF ANIMAL FEED AND HYDROLYSIS OF POLYSACCHARIDES USING AMINO ACIDS AS SALTS OR WITH ACIDS

摘要

In some aspects, the present disclosure relates to a method of hydrolyzing a polysaccharide to obtain the corresponding saccharides using an amino acid solution. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method of using an amino acid salt such as hydrogen glycine in a solution to obtain a monosaccharide such as glucose, xylose, or fructose.

主权项

1. A method of hydrolyzing a polysaccharide to obtain one or more monosaccharides comprising:
(a) admixing the polysaccharide with a hydrolysis solution to form a slurry, wherein the hydrolysis solution comprises either a mixture of an amino acid and an acid or an acid salt of an amino acid with or without an acid in a solvent; and (b) heating the slurry to hydrolyze the polysaccharide to one or more monosaccharides.
