QUESTION 8 What is the purpose of adding NaOH to the filtrate? O To increase the pH of the fermenting solution (increase its basicity) O To decrease the pH of the fermenting solution (increase its acidity) O To maintain the optimal pH of the fermenting solution, which is 4.5 O To remove impurities and by-products in the filtrate.
