Abstract
A glucose production method is characterized in that a cellulose raw material is decomposed using a mixture of a cellulolytic enzyme, and saliva or an activating auxiliary agent derived from biological saliva. The method achieves excellent glucose yield.
Claims1
A method for producing glucose, comprising:
- providing a cellulose raw material;
- pulverizing the cellulose raw material to obtain a fine cellulose material;
- enzymolytically decomposing the fine cellulose material using a mixture of a cellulolytic enzyme and either saliva obtained from a ruminant animal or an activating auxiliary agent isolated from saliva obtained from a ruminant animal, to obtain crude glucose material;
- and
- purifying the crude glucose material to obtain a purified glucose material.
