MSU technology that converts plant fibers to biofuel commercialized
Date:9/3/2008

t more costly. The fact that the breakdown process also is difficult to do efficiently also increases costs.

Sticklen's corn variety for biofuel production, Spartan Corn III, contains all three enzymes necessary to convert the cellulose in plant fiber into sugars that can be made into biofuel.

"We look forward to working with Edenspace to further develop and deploy this suite of important technologies," said Mike Poterala, executive director of MSU Technologies, which is responsible for commercializing MSU's technology portfolio and negotiated the license with Edenspace. "This is a very exciting development for MSU and the biofuel industry."
