Abstract

Xylose and arabinose are pentose sugars that present in hemicellulose, part of lignocellulose biomass. These pentose sugars can be fermented by yeast into ethanol. The aim of this research was to utilize yeast isolated from durian fruit (Durio zibethinus L.) in fermentation of xylose and arabinose to produce bioethanol. Phenotypic test of isolates was conducted by growing the isolates in various agar media, i.e. YPD (Yeast Peptone Dextrose), YPA (Yeast Peptone Arabinose), and YPX (Yeast Peptone Xylose) containing dextrose, arabinose, xylose, respectively, as sole carbon source to see cell growth. The yeast isolates were further identified using API AOC 20C kit method. Yeast isolates were applied for fermentation of glucose, arabinose, and xylose in incubated cultures. Ethanol production in the fermentation was analyzed by gas chromatography. Yeast isolates were identified as Kodamaea ohmeri, Candida famata, Candida guilliermondii, and Crytococcuc laurentii. Based on gas chromatography data, it was found that ethanol produced in the fermentation for three days, the highest ethanol content on xylose substrate was fermented by Candida famata-A which is 0.021% (v/v) ethanol resulted from initial concentration of 5% xylose (w/v). While on arabinose substrate, the highest ethanol content was fermented by Crytococcus laurentii-B which is 0.0034% (v/v) ethanol resulted from initial concentration of 5% arabinose (w/v).
