ABSTRACT Acanthophora spicifera (Red algae) and Dictyopteris australis (Brown algae), biomasses were pretreated and subjected to fermentation. Acid pretreatment yielded 35.82±0.12 mg/g and 28.04±0.09 mg/g of reduced sugar respectively. Acid pretreated biomass subjected to enzyme hydrolysis yielded 216 mg/g and 187 mg/g of reduced sugar. Separate hydrolysis and fermentation was carried out for acid hydrolysate […]
