A 200-1itre stirred fermenter contains a batch culture of Bacillus subtilis bacteria at 28⁰C Air at 20⁰C is pumped into the vessel at a rate of 1 vvm; (vvm stands for volume of gas per volume of liquid per minute). The average pressure in the fermenter is 1 atm. The volumetric flow rate of off-gas from the fermenter is measured as 189 l min-1. The exit gas stream is analysed for oxygen and is found to contain 20.1% 02. The dissolved-oxygen concentration in the broth is measured using an oxygen electrode as 52% air saturation. The solubility of oxygen in the fermentation broth at 28⁰C and 1 atm air pressure is 7.8 x 10-3 kg m-3. Determine the value of kLa for the system ____________

A biochemist isolates, purifies, and combines in a test tube a variety of molecules needed for DNA replication. When she adds some DNA to the mixture, replication occurs, but each DNA molecule consists of a normal strand paired with numerous segments of DNA a few hundred nucleotides long. What has she probably left out of the mixture?
