Enzymatic saccharification of corn stover can be enhanced by partially replacing commercial enzymes with bacterial crude enzyme extracts. Three bacteria, Bacillus sp. A0, Bacillus sp. CH20S1, and Exiguobacterium sp. AS2B, were cultured in a media with corn stover as the substrate. The cultural conditions were monitored and optimized to maximize CMCase and xylanase activity in the crude enzyme extracts. After 72 h of hydrolysis of corn stover with diluted crude enzymes (DCE) from the three strains, reducing sugars were released from non-pretreated and pretreated corn stovers. Values of the released sugars ranged from 48.23–71.69 mg g− 1, which were lower than those released by commercial cellulase (100–400 mg g− 1). The synergistic effects were observed when 12 FPU g− 1 and 4 FPU g− 1 of commercial cellulase were added to the DCE of the CH20S1 strain producing 315.90 mg g− 1 and 320.65 mg g− 1 reducing sugars, respectively. It was shown that an effective combination of bacterial DCE with commercial enzymes could achieve more cost-efficient saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass compared to either of the two enzymes used alone.
