High initial cell density did not show a positive effect in this bioconversion since increasing the initial cell density from 0.67 g L−1 to 2.41 g L−1 decreased both the rate of xylose utilization and xylitol accumulation. The maximum xylitol yield (0.71 g g−1) and volumetric productivity (0.56 g L−1 h−1) were reached with an inoculum level of 0.9 g L−1. These results show that under appropriate inoculum conditions rice straw hemicellulose hydrolysate can be converted into xylitol by the yeastC. guilliermondii with efficiency values as high as 77% of the theoretical maximum.
