The Effect of Gibberellic Acid and Rice Bran on the Production of Ethanol from Cane Molasses and Sugarcane Juice

     Logrono, M.F.T., Sanchez, M.L.C., et.al. 1998.   Gibberellic acid and rice bran were observed to have stimulative effects on the ethanol production using sugarcane juice and molasses as substrate. Gibberellic acid is known for its stimulative effect on the fermentative capacity of yeasts. Rice bran increases rates of ethanol fermentation and supplies nutrients, which support yeast growth sufficiently during the process. PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHILIPPINE SUGAR TECHNOLOGISTS.
