Explain.arrow_forwardFor the production of a secondary metabolic by Streptomyces coelicolor, a fed batch was performed. At the end of the single batch phase, the following conditions were reached in the reactor: V=10000L, cell concentration X=10g/L and product concentration P=0.1g/L. The feeding was then started with constant flow F= 200L/h, for 100h. Knowing that the substrate concentration in the feeding medium was SF= 80g/L and in the fermentation medium it was practically null, calculate: a) The final concentration of cells and productb) If the reactor were fed with a constant dilution rate (D), what should be the value of D used to reach the same cell concentration obtained in the situation with constant flow?μp= 0.01 g of product/ (g of cells.h)Y x/s = 0.15g cells/g of substratearrow_forward

- Which growth condition shown above has the largest doubling time? How would you explain the observed growth data based on information about metabolism and oxygen requirements? Definitely take into consideration the relative growth of all three growth conditions. Surprisingly, cultures grown in anerobic conditions are non-motile, whereas cultures grown in normal O2 saturation have several peritrichous flagella and swim motility. Explain briefly the mechanism of flagellar motility in terms of energy source for flagellar motility and why it may be lower in anaerobic conditions for L. monocytogenes.arrow_forwardDefine growth. Why does the lag phase in some bacteria is short or absent and the log phase of the bacterial growth is preferred in any industrial process?arrow_forwardexplain why there is little to no growth of these organisms in the minimal salt media with glucose compared to the complex media.
