Application

Cellopentaose, a 5-glucose cellulodextrin derived from cellulose degradation similar to cellulobiose (2-glucose), cellulotriose (3-glucose), and cellulotetraose (4-glucose), is used by cellulosic bacteria as source of energy. Cellopentaose may be used to help identify, differentiate and characterize oligosaccharide metabolizing enzymes such as endoglucanases and β-glucosidase(s). Cellopentaose may be used in saccharification and ethanol fermentation research.

Cellulases participate in a number of biological events, such as plant cell wall remodelling, nematode parasitism and microbial carbon uptake. Their ability to depolymerize crystalline cellulose is of great biotechnological interest for environmentally compatible production of fuels from lignocellulosic biomass.
