Stoichiometric equations are used to represent growth of microorganisms provided a ' molecular formula' for the cells is available. The molecular formula for biomass is obtained by measuring the amounts of C, N, H, O and other elements in cells. For a particular bacterial strain, the molecular formula was determined to be C_4.4H_7.30 _1.2N_0.86 . These bacteria are grown under aerobic conditions with hexadecane (C₁₆H₃₄) as substrate. The reaction equation describing growth is:

  Assuming 100% conversion, what is the yield of cells from hexadecane in g g^-l?

Production of recombinant protein by a geneticallyengineered strain of Escherichia coli is proportional to cell growth. Ammonia is used as nitrogen source for aerobic respiration of glucose. The recombinant protein has an overall formula CHI.5500.31N0.25. The yield ofbiomass from glucose is measured at 0.48 g g-1; the yield of recombinant protein from glucose is about 20% that for cells. What is the oxygen demand per gmol glucose?
