Abstract: A method of producing a fermentation product from starch containing material, the method including converting starch containing material to fermentable sugars, wherein the starch containing material is corn; fermenting the fermentable sugars with a microorganism into fermented mash; subjecting fermentation medium, during the fermentation process to an enzyme composition comprising a xylanase and a pectinase; and separating fermentation product from the fermented mash.

Abstract: The present technology provide a method of dewatering whole stillage. The addition of a xylanase in combination with a pectinase results in a wet cake with a higher dry mass. The advantage here is less energy consumption while drying.

Abstract: A method of recovering oil, which includes (a) converting a starch-containing material into dextrins with an alpha-amylase; (b) saccharifying the dextrins using a carbohydrate source generating enzyme to form a sugar; (c) fermenting the sugar in a fermentation medium into a fermentation product using a fermenting organism, wherein the fermentation medium comprises a xylanase and a pectinase; (d) distilling the fermentation product to form a whole stillage; (e) separating the whole stillage into thin stillage and wet cake; and (f) recovering the oil from the thin stillage.

Abstract: The present technology relates to methods of reducing the batch time in a fermentation process, wherein the fermentation medium is subjected before, during and/or after the fermentation process to an enzyme composition comprising at least a xylanase and a pectinase.

Abstract: A purified thermostable enzyme is derived form the thermophilic archaebacterium Thermococcus gorgonarius. The enzyme can be native or recombinant, retains approximately 90% of its activity after incubation for two hours at 95° C. in the presence of stabilizing agents and possesses 3?-5? proofreading exonuclease activity. Thermostable DNA polymerases are useful in many recombinant DNA techniques, especially nucleic acid amplification by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
