SECTION-B

  1. Thermal death of microorganisms in the liquid medium follows first order kinetics. If the initial cell concentration in the fermentation medium is 106 cells / ml and the final acceptable contamination level is 103 cells, for how long should 1.0 m3 medium be treated at temperature of 120 °C to achieve acceptable load? Consider the thermal deactivation rate constant at 120 °C is 0.23/min.
  2. --- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

  3. What are the basic features of a fermenter? Draw a schematic to indicate them.
  4. Comment on “diffusion limitation in immobilized enzyme system'.
  5. Briefly explain the 'Chelating Agent' and 'Growth Factor' in media design.
  6. Discuss chromatography technique in downstream processing.

    2. Calculate the apparent growth yield.
    3. What maximum cell concentration could one expect if 150 g of glucose were used with the same size inoculum?
  3. --- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---

  4. Discuss the feedback inhibition problem relating the L-Lysine production. Describe L-Lysine production including the production process, different media sources and influencing factors and downstream processing.
