To track cell growth and utilization of the limiting substrate in a bioreactor, the yield is typically used. The yield overline v is defined as Y = (X - X_{0}) / (S_{0} - S) Where X and S are the cell mass and substrate concentration at any time t and X_{0} and S_{0} are the initial cell mass and substrate concentration. Assume that your cells spend a time tl in the lag phase, and then transition to the exponential phase. Calculate the concentration of the substrate S, at any time point t in the reactor Use Monod equation in the exponential phase to relate mu net to mu max . Your final answer should only contain S. S_{0} X_{0} t, mu max and K_{s}

Explain growth-cycle phases for a batch cultivation. Does Penicillin production occur in log or stationary phase?
A bacterial culture is grown using either octadecane (C18H38) or pentachlorophenol (C6HOCl5)) as the sole source of carbon and energy. The cell yield value is determined by dry weight analysis to be 1.49 for octadecane and 0.05 for pentachlorophenol. Using either octadecane or pentachlorophenol, please describe the steps taken (and the final result) showing what percentage of the substrate carbon will be found as cell mass and as CO2? Please show all calculations.

You are studying a biochemical pathway and isolate Neurospora mutants I, II, and III.Mutant I can grow if you supplement the medium with Z.Mutant II can grow if you supplement the medium with X, Y, or Z.Mutant III can grow if you supplement the medium with X and Z, but not with Y. Draw a biochemical pathway that shows the correct order for compounds X, Y, and Z and for the enzymes that each mutant is defective for.

Two microorganisms that use naphthalene as a food source have the same Umax but different Ks values for naphthalene. If both types of microorganisms are inoculated at the same cell density into a liquid culture containing naphthalene as the sole carbon source (i.e. the only food source), which microorganism will outcompete the other: the one with the higher Ks or the one with the lower Ks. Why?.
