Baterial lipase from Staphylococcus carnosus (pLipMut2) has been immobilized on various supports in order to determine a suitable immobilization technique in terms of activity and stability, when utilized for the hydrolysis of tributyrin. The hydrophobic materials PBA Eupergit and PBA Eupergit 250L prooved to be appropriate supports, when the enzyme was crosslinked with glutaraldehyde after adsorption. No desorption of the immobilized enzyme occured during operation. The pore size of the support has a strong effect on the activity but does not influence stability.The initial activity for immobilized and soluble lipase is found to follow the Arrhenius equation at low temperature, where mass transfer does not affect reaction kinetics. Activation energies for soluble and immobilized lipase were evaluated to be 21.7 kJ mol–1 and 60.8 kJ mol–1, respectively.Operational stability was studied in a packed bed recirculation reactor. Thermal desactivation followed first order kinetics with a half-life of 1340 h at 10°C. Model calculations for productivity showed, that optimal temperatures for high productivity are well below the temperature of maximal activity.List of Symbols

Many microbial fermentation processes exhibit different phases (e.g. adaption phase, main growth phase, main production phase). The process variables e.g. the biomass vary randomly about their mean. The experimentalist is interested to know the break points of the different phases, and a tolerance region, i.e. a range of possible values of the process variable that can be considered as normal. This paper deals with statistical methods for determining break points and tolerance regions.List of Symbols

Summary The on-line estimation of biomass concentration and of three variable parameters of the non-linear model of continuous cultivation by an extended Kalman filter is demonstrated. Yeast growth in aerobic conditions on an ethanol substrate is represented by an unstructured non-linear stochastic t-variant dynamic model. The filter algorithm uses easily accessible data concerning the input substrate concentration, its concentration in the fermentor and dilution rate, and estimates the biomass concentration, maximum specific growth rate, saturation constant and substrate yield coefficient. The microorganismCandida utilis, strain Vratimov, was cultivated on the ethanol substrate. The filter results obtained with the real data from one cultivation experiment are presented. The practical possibility of using this method for on-line estimation of biomass concentration, which is difficult to measure, is discussed.Nomenclature

Stirred tank (STR), bubble column (BCR) and airlift (ALR) bioreactors of 0.05 and 1.5 m3 total volume were compared for the production of 2,3-butanediol using Enterobacter aerogenes under microaerobic conditions. Batch fermentations were carried out at constant oxygen transfer rate (OTR=35 mmol/lh). At 0.05 m3 scale, the STR reactor achieved much higher biomass and product concentrations than the BCR and ALR reactors. At 1.5 m3 scale, however, exactly the same biomass and product concentrations could be obtained in both STR and ALR reactors. The 1.5 m3 ALR reactor performed also much better than its counterpart at small scale, achieving a productivity 2.4-fold as high as that of the 0.05 m3 BCL and ALR reactors. No differences in performances were observed between BCR and ALR. As compared to STR the tower reactors have a 12 time higher energetic efficiency (referred to product formation) and thus should be the choice for large scale production of 2,3-butanediol.The criterion of constant OTR or constant k
L
a is not applicable for the scale-up of this oxygen-sensitive culture due to strong influence of reactor hydrodynamics under microaerobic conditions. The effects of mixing and circulation time on growth and metabolism of E. aerogenes were quantitatively studied in scaled-down experiments with continuous culture. For a successful scale-up of this microaerobic culture it is necessary to have an homogeneous oxygen supply over the entire reactor volume. Under conditions of inhomogeneous oxygen supply an optimum liquid circulation time exists which gives a maximum production of 2,3-butanediol.List of Symbols BD

Summary The recent models of the Acetone-Butanol fermentation did not adequately describe the culture inhibition by the accumulating metabolites and were unable to simulate the acidogenic culture dynamics at elevated pH levels. The present updated modification of the model features a generalised inhibition term and a pH dependent terms for intracellular conversion of undissociated acids into solvent products. The culture dynamics predictions by the developed model compared well with experimental results from an unconventional acidogenic fermentation ofC. acetobutylicum.Nomenclature

Summary When hyperpolarizing currents are applied between the inside and outside of a muscle fiber it is known that there is a slow transient decrease (300- to 600-msec time constant) in the measured fiber conductance sometimes referred to as creep which is maximal in K2SO4 Ringer's solutions and which disappears on disruption of the transverse tubular system. An approximate mathematical analysis of the situation indicates that these large, slow conductance changes are to be expected from changes in the K+ concentration in the tubular system and are due to differences in transport numbers between the walls and lumen of the tubules. Experiments using small constant-voltage and constant-current pulses (membrane p. d. changes 20 to 30 mV) on the same fibers followed by an approximate mathematical and more exact computed numerical analysis using the measured fiber parameters and published values of tubular system geometry factors showed close agreement between the conductance creep predicted and that observed, thus dispensing with the need for postulated changes in individual membrane conductances at least during small voltage pulses. It is further suggested that an examination of creep with constant-voltage and constant-current pulses may provide a useful tool for monitoring changes in tubular system parameters, such as those occurring during its disruption by presoaking the fibers in glycerol.Table of main symbols used

Cultivation of Brevibacterium divaricatum for glutamic acid production in an airlift reactor with net draft tube was developed. Cell concentration gave an index for adding penicillin G. On-line estimation of total sugar concentration yielded an identified model which was used for determination of the substrate addition. Fermentation for glutamic acid production requires high oxygen concentration in the broth. The proposed reactor has the capability to provide sufficient oxygen for the fermentation. Since the reactor is suitable for fed-batch culture, the cultivation of B. divaricatum for glutamic acid production in the proposed reactor is successfully carried out.List of Symbols

We consider an age-dependent, multitype model for the growth of mast cells in culture. After a colony of cells is established by an initiator type, the two possible types of cells are resting and proliferative. Using novel inferential procedures, we estimate the generation-time distribution and the offspring distribution of proliferative cells, and the waiting-time distribution of resting cells.List of Notations

Saliva was collected from the mandibular glands of anaesthetized common wombats (Vombatus ursinus) to ascertain maximal flow rates, salivary compostion and possible adaptations, particularly PO4
3- secretion, to assist digestion. After temporary catheterization of the main duct through its oral opening, salivary secretion was evoked at flow rates ranging from 0.02±0.002 (±SEM) ml·min-1 (0.7±0.07 l·min-1·kg body weight-1) to 0.4±0.05 ml·min-1(14±1.9 l·min-1·kg body weight-1) by ipsilateral intracarotid infusion of acetylcholine. The [Na+] (15±5.1 to 58±8.6 mmol·l-1) and [HCO3
-] (35±1.9 to 60±1.9 mmol·l-1) were positively correlated with salivary flow rate. The [K+] (58±5.2 to 30±2.4 mmol·l-1), [Ca2+] (10.4±1.67 to 4.1±0.44 mmol·l-1), [Mg2+] (0.94±0.137 to 0.17±0.032 mmol·l-1), [Cl-] (71±9.2 to 45±6.0 mmol·l-1), [urea] (9.3±0.79 to 5.1±0.54 mmol·l-1), H+ activity (29±1.6 to 17±1.6 nEq·l-1) and amylase activity (251±57.4 to 92±23.3 kat·l-1) were negatively correlated with flow. Both concentration and osmolality fell with increasing flow at the lower end of the flow range but osmolality always increased again by maximal flow whereas the relation between protein and flow was not consistent at the higher levels of flow and stimulation. Salivary [PO4
3+] was not correlated with flow and at 3–14% of the plasma concentration was extremely low. Thus, in contrast to its nearest relative, the koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), the wombat secretes little PO4
3+ presumably because it does not need high levels of PO4
3+ in its saliva to facilitate microbial digestion of plant fibre.Abbreviations bw

Summary Enzymic conversion of glucose to fructose was carried out in a packed bed and in a fluidized bed reactor. The flow dynamics of these two flow systems, loaded with two different types of immobilized loaded with two different types of immobilized glucose isomerase particles, were studied. The theoretical RTD curve calculated from the axial dispersed plug flow model equation was matched to the experimental RTD curve by an optimization technique. The effect of fluid velocity on the extent of liquid dispersion was established. Theoretical predictions on the conversion of glucose to fructose were calculated using three mathematical models, namely, a plug flow model, a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) model and an axial dispersed plug flow model. The experimental results showed that the axial dispersed plug flow model was superior in predicting the performance of both the packed bed and fluidized bed reactor.Abbreviations

Summary Specific growth rate models of product-inhibited cell growth exist but are rarely applied to fermentations beyond ethanol and large-scale antibiotic production. The present paper summarizes experimental data and the development of a model for growth of the commercially important bacterium,Lactobacillus plantarum, in cucumber juice. The model provides an excellent correlation of data for the influence on bacterial growth rate of NaCl, protons (H+), and the neutral, inhibitory forms of acetic acid and the fermentation product, lactic acid. The effects of each of the variables are first modeled separately using established functional forms and then combined in the final model formulation.Nomenclature [C]

Summary The liquid and solids mixing in fluidized bed bio-reactors containing particles with a density only slightly higher than water (1100 kg/m3) is generally consistent with the results found in previous studies for reactors with particles of higher density. The liquid mixing can be described by an axial dispersion model for a large variety of conditions while the solids follow the streamlines of the liquid. In the presence of a gas phase the degree of mixing of both the liquid and the solid phase increased. This effect became larger with increasing reactor diameter. In the extrapolation of laboratory data of three phase fluidized bed bio-reactors to pilot plant systems this effect should be taken into account. The liquid and solids mixing may have a substantial effect on overall conversion rates and on possible microbial stratification in the reactor.Nomenclature Bo

A design equation for immobilized glucose isomerase (IGI) packed bed reactor is developed assuming enzyme deactivation and substrate protection. The developed equation is used to simulate the performance of the reactor at various temperatures (50–80 °C). Enzyme deactivation is significant at high temperature. Substrate protection showed to have significant effect in reducing enzyme deactivation and increasing the enzyme half-life. Factors affecting the optimum operating temperature are discussed. The optimum operating temperature is greatly influenced by the operating period and to a lesser extent with both initial glucose concentration and glucose conversion.Two modes of reactor operation are tested i.e., constant feed flow rate and constant conversion. Reactor operating at constant conversion is more productive than reactor operating at constant flow rate if the working temperature is higher than the optimum temperature. Although at lower temperatures than the optimum, the two modes of operation give the same result.List of Symbols

Summary The effects of various convective and temperature regimes on heat production, evaporative heat loss, and thermal resistance were studied in deer mice,Peromyscus maniculatus. Heat production (measured as oxygen consumption) increased with increasing wind speed (V) and decreasing ambient temperature (T
a), except atT
a=35°C which was thermoneutral for allV from 0.05 through 3.75 m/s. Evaporative water loss (
) increased with increasingT
a, but wind had little effect on
except at highT
a. In the absence of forced convection, the animals' total resistance to heat transfer (r
t) was high and stable atT
a below thermoneutrality. However, at highV ther
t increased steadily with decreasingT
a. Although deer mice rarely experience high wind speeds in natural microhabitats, the convective regime is nevertheless important in determining rates of heat loss, and must be considered in studies of ecological energetics.Symbols and Abbreviations

Although being composed of high valent ions, the crystal structures of four new supramolecular intercluster compounds, presented in this article, display a major contribution of short-range intermolecular interactions, i.e., aromatic π-π interactions. These structure-directing forces has lead to the formation of an distorted NaCl-type packing in [Ag5(2,2′-bipyridine)4(CCtBu)2][PW12O40] and [Ag5(2,2′-bipyridine)4(CCtBu)2][PMo12O40], and a CsCl-type packing in [Ag8(2,2′-bipyridine)6(CCtBu)4(C3H7NO)2][SiW12O40] and [Ag8(2,2′-bipyridine)6(CCtBu)4(C3H7NO)2][SiMo12O40]. 相似文献

It is assumed that the activity of a visual channel may be represented as V(t)=g(t)+(t), where g(t) is the deterministic response of the channel due to the presentation of a stimulus and (t) is the trajectory of a wide-sense stationary Gauss process. The stimulus is detected if the event V(t)>S for at least one t[0, T] occurs. Two approximations for the probability of this event are proposed, and it is demonstrated how they may be employed to estimate (i) the value of the second spectral moment
2 of the noise process
t
, where
2 reflects the speed of the fluctuations of the trajectories
t
, and (ii) the value of the internal threshold S. The commonly made assumption of peak — detection is shown to serve as a very good first approximation in particular if the channel is of transient type or — in case of detection by a channel of sustained type — if the stimulus durations are not too long. 相似文献

Summary The performance of an external loop air-lift bioreactor was investigated by assessing the inter-relationships between various hydrodynamic properties and mass transfer. The feasibility of using this bioreactor for the production of monoclonal antibodies by mouse hybridoma cells immobilized in calcium alginate gel beads and alginate/poly-l-lysine microcapsules was also examined. When the superficial gas velocity, V
g
, in the 300 ml reactor was varied from 2 to 36 cm/min, the average liquid velocity increased from 3 to 14 cm/sec, the gas hold-up rose from 0.2 to 3.0%, and the oxygen mass transfer coefficient, k
L
a, increased from 2.5 to 18.1 h-1. A minimum liquid velocity of 4 cm/s was required to maintain alginate gel beads (1000 m diameter, occupying 3% of reactor volume) in suspension. Batch culture of hybridoma cells immobilized in alginate beads followed logarithmic growth, reaching a concentration of 4×107 cells/ml beads after 11 days. Significant antibody production did not occur until day 9 into the culture, reaching a value of 100 g/ml of medium at day 11. On the other hand, bioreactor studies with encapsulated hybridoma cells gave monoclonal antibody concentrations of up to 800 g/ml capsules (the antibody being retained within the semipermeable capsule) and maximum cell densities of 2×108 cells/ml capsule at day 11. The volumetric productivities of the alginate gel immobilized cell system and the encapsulated cell system were 9 and 3 g antibody per ml of reactor volume per day, respectively. The main advantage of the bioreactor system is its simple design, since no mechanical input is required to vary the hydrodynamic properties. 相似文献

Bioreactor performance studies of the recently developed horizontal stirred tank with a volume of 421 have been carried out for fermentation with Trichosporon cutaneum. Quantification on the basis of measured oxygen transfer capacity and power consumption is presented and compared with data for a conventional vertical tank bioreactor.During the experiments it has been observed that two different forms of morphology of Trichosporon, i.e. the normal yeast-form (Y) with single cells and a mycelium-form (M) with filamentous cells, are present in the horizontal stirred tank when working with the original strain (DSM 70698). After separation both forms were characterized and later on used for bioreactor performance studies in the horizontal and vertical stirred tank. Results of oxygen efficiency show the drastic effect of the morphology change on bioreactor performance. Finally different bioreactors are quantitatively compared on the basis of oxygen transfer, power consumption and productivity using the reference fermentation system Trichosporon cutaneum.List of Symbols
