You consult an article [1] in which a section from another article [2] (that you haven’t read) is cited. You would like to insert this section from article [2] in your report. Which source do you cite?

A. [1] Kim S et Dale BE 2004 Global potential bioethanol production from wasted crops and crop residues. Biomass & Bioenergy 26(4): 361-375

B. [2] Zaldivar J, Nielsen J, Olsson L Fuel 2001 Ethanol production from lignocellulose: a challenge for metabolic engineering and process integration. Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology 56 (1-2):17-34 0%0%

Do not cite a document that you have not consulted!

Suggestions

In the textKim S. (2004) suggests that the technique described by Zaldivar J. (2001) as « being by

far the most efficient on most continents » is not the only way to follow for the development of the bioethanol production.
