  • Title: Physiological characteristic and energy balance of Klebsiella aerogenes in a multistage tower fermentor.
    Author: Páca J.
    Journal: Folia Microbiol (Praha); 1979; 24(4):352-63. PubMed ID: 393594.
    Abstract:
    Biomass growth, consumption of carbon and energy source, specific rates of formation of metabolic byproducts, biomass yield referred to the C-source and to oxygen, respiration rate and the value of RQ were studied in Klebsiella aerogenes CCM 2318 (on a synthetic glucose medium) at different specific growth rates. Maintenance coefficients and the total energy balance of the cultivation process were evaluated for a multistage tower fermentor with a defined interstage mixing. The results pointed to changes in both glucose metabolism and the physiological state of the population, brought about by changes in specific growth rate. As compared with a chemostat, the culture was found to exhibit a different physiological character is stages 1 and 4 despite a considerable interstage mixing.
