| Abstract: | Saccharomyces cerevisiae CBS 426 was grown aerobically in continuous culture with a mixture of glucose and ethanol as the carbon source. The flows of biomass, glucose, ethanol, oxygen, and carbon dioxide were measured. A model for growth with two substrates was derived. Application of this model to the above-mentioned system yielded values for YATP and P/O. The joint confidence regions for these parameters were calculated. The relevance to industrial production of bakers' yeast is discussed. |
