In addition, the reaction temperature (Temp) seemed to have a significant effect on glucan digestibility ( p = 0.0182) and showed a clear-cut tendency (close to significance) to affect XMG digestibility ( p = 0.0511).

An interesting trend was observed with increased NH 3 loading: glucan digestibility of the pretreated solid sample increased from 71.6 to 91.8% with NH 3 loading up to 0.16 (g NH 3 )/(g biomass), then decreased to 84.7% at 0.24 (g NH 3 )/(g biomass) loading.
