In general, pretreatments are designed to enhance the accessibility of cellulose to enzymes, allowing for more efficient conversion. in this study, we have detected the penetration of major cellulases present in a commercial enzyme preparation (Spezyme CP) into corn stern cell walls following mild-, moderate- and high-severity dilute sulfuric acid pretreatments. The Trichoderma reesei enzymes, Cel7A (CBH I) and Cel7B (EG I), as well as the cell wall matrix components xylan and lignin were visualized within digested corn stover cell walls by immuno transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using enzyme- and polymer-specific antibodies. Low severity dilute-acid pretreatment (20 min at 100 degrees C) enabled
