A genetically-engineered strain of yeast is cultured in a bioreactor at 30⁰C for production of heterologous protein. The oxygen requirement is 80 mmol 1-1 h-I; the critical oxygen concentration is 0.004 mM. The solubility of oxygen in the fermentation broth is estimated to be 10% lower than in water due to solute effects. What is the minimum mass-transfer coefficient necessary to sustain this culture if the reactor is sparged with air at approximately 1 atm pressure ?

Hybridoma cells immobilized on surfaces of Sephadex beads are used in a packed column for production of monoclonoal antibodies (Mab). Hybridoma concentration is approximately X = 5 g/l in the bed. The flow rate of the synthetic medium and glucose concentration are Q = 2 l/h and S0 = 40 g/l, respectively. The rate constant for Mab formation is k = 1 gX/l-d. Assume that there are no diffusion limitations and glucose is the rate limiting nutrient. Determine the volume of the packed bed for 95% glucose conversion. Bed diameter is D0 = 0.2 m. Neglect the growth of the hybridomas and assume first order kinetics.
