A Xylanase was fractionated from Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus, an ethanologenic thermophile, and the preparation so obtained was used to determined enzymatic parameters such as pH profile of enzyme activity. The ability of various mono- and di-saccharides as well as temperature variations to induce this enzyme activity were studied
