Methodological analysis for determination of enzymatic digestibility of cellulosic materials.

abstract：:A continuous viral inactivation (CVI) chamber has been designed to operate with acceptable residence time distribution (RTD) characteristics. However, altering the CVI's geometry and operation to accommodate the scale was not obvious. In this work, we elucidate the influence of Dean vortices and leverage the transitio...
