In addition, the metabolism of D-xylose to xylitol, physiology of the yeast strains andbiotechnological parameters affecting the formation of xylitol were discussed.}, type={Text}, title={Xylitol: metabolism, microbial production and perspective in polymer substrates utilization}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/145931/PDF/POZN271_181183_biotechnologia-1997-no3-udeh.pdf}, keywords={biotechnology}, }
