Abstract

The continuous fermentation process for exe-biopolymer production with Cordyceps militaris has been developed in this research. With the change of dilution rate, biopolymer production has been changed and the maximal biopolymer production has been achieved when the dilution rate was 0.0225/hr. The maximum mycelium concentration and biopolymer concentration were 8 g/L and 4.2 g/L, respectively.
