Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Lignocellulosic ethanol is emerging as the prominent candidate for renewable liquid transportation fuels, and the conversion of biomass to ethanol requires enzymatic hydrolysis. Enzymes that hydrolyze biomass have been the subject of several studies, since the cost estimations of second-generation ethanol show significant contributions by this single consumable. The chapter introduces biomass-hydrolyzing enzymes in the context of biorefineries and provides an overview on the current knowledge and understanding of these enzymes with respect to their types, mode of action, regulation of gene expression, and synergies. The changing concepts about the role of individual enzymes and the new discoveries on lignocellulose breakdown are presented to highlight the developments in biomass hydrolysis paradigm. It also covers the current strategies employed for commercial production of different lignocellulose-hydrolyzing enzymes and their blending to derive efficient cocktails. Finally, the importance of cost reduction in production and usage of biomass hydrolysis enzymes for a cost-effective bioethanol technology is discussed along with the current approaches in addressing this.
