Enhancement of glucose recovery from banana stem by 4-cycle enzymatic hydrolysis

Valorisation of banana waste into value-added products has gained an increasing interest since decades ago. To date, there is still limited information on the rational direction of banana stems, which are conventionally dumped and burnt at the field or disposed into water streams, leading to serious...
