classification-0	6,498,029	Pentose fermentation of normally toxic lignocellulose prehydrolysate with strain of Pichia stipitis yeast using air	6,498,029	Yes The invention is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/442,431, filed Nov. 17, 1999, and relates to a new strain of the yeast Pichia stipitisstrain NPw9 having accession ATCC No. PTA-3717 , deposited at ATCC, 10801 University Boulevard, Manassas, VA 20110 and also known as Yamadazyma stipitis and a process for preparation of the new strain of the yeast Pichia stipitis capable of producing ethanol from usually toxic levels of prehydrolysate hexose as well as pentose sugars and is also capable of producing more cell mass, as a result of controlling aeration levels, than is possible for typical or wild-type yeast fermentation of sugars. These normally toxic levels of prehydrolysate sugars significantly reduce contamination by competing organisms and therefore reduce the need and costs for sterilization of the prehydrolysate prior to fermentation.
