Dilute acid hydrolysis of paper birch: kinetics studies of xylan and acetyl-group hydrolysis.

abstract：:In large-scale mammalian cell culture, the key toxic by-products assessed and monitored are lactate and ammonia. Often no distinction between the two isoforms of lactate is made. Here, we present profiles of both D- and L-lactate. D-Lactate is the end molecule of the methylglyoxal pathway. D-Lactate unlike L-lactate i...
