식물세포배양을 위한 bioreactor의 운전조건 최적화를 위해 Nicotiana tabacum 현탁세포를 model system으로 bioreator의 종류, 교반기의 형태, 그리고 통기량에 따른 세포생장을 관찰하였다. Bioreactor로는 stirred tank bioreactor과 airlift bioreactor를 사용하였으며 두가지 배양기 모두 flask에서의 생장보다 낮은 생장을 보였으며 stirred tank bioreactor보다는 airlift bioreator에서 높은 세포농도를 얻을 수 있었다. 교반기의 종류에 따른 세포의 생장은 큰 차이가 없었으나 hollowed paddle impeller를 사용하였을 경우에는 배양기간 동안 세포의 크기가 작게 유지되었다. 통기량을 0.30 vvm으로 유지하는 경우에 가장 좋은 세포생장을 관찰할 수 있었으며 1.0 vvm이상의 통기량에서는 과도한 foam의 형성과 세포의 갈색화 현상을 보이며 세포의 생장도 저해되었다. 또한 통기량이 증가할수록 세포크기지수가 감소하는 결과를 보였다.

This paper investigates the production and optimization of $\beta$-galactosidase enzyme using synthetic medium by Kluyveromyces lactis NRRL Y-8279 in stirred tank bioreactor. Response surface methodology was used to investigate the effects of fermentation parameters on $\beta$-galactosidase enzyme production. Maximum specific enzyme activity of 4,622.7 U/g was obtained at the optimum levels of process variables (aeration rate 2.21 vvm, agitation speed 173.4 rpm, initial sugar concentration 33.8 g/L, incubation time 24.0 hr). The optimum temperature and pH of the $\beta$-galactosidase enzyme produced under optimized conditions were $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0, respectively. The enzyme was stable over a pH range of 6.0-7.5 and a temperature range of $25-37^{\circ}C$. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values for O-nitrophenol-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) were 1.20 mM and $1,000\;{\mu}mol/min{\cdot}mg$ protein, respectively. The response surface methodology was found to be useful in optimizing and determining the interactions among process variables in $\beta$-galactosidase enzyme production. Hence, this study fulfills the lack of using mathematical and statistical techniques in optimizing the $\beta$-galactosidase enzyme production in stirred tank bioreactor.

S. clavulirerus ATCC 27064 균주는 약 200 mg/L의 clavulanic acid를 생산하였지만, 이 균주를 NTG에 의해 돌연변이 시킴으로써 얻어진 S. clavuligerus KK를 같은 배양조건에서 약 5배 많은 1150 mg/L의 clavulanic acid를 생산하였다. 무기염이 첨가되지 않은 clavulanic acid의 기본 생산 배지에서는 clavulanic acid의 생산량은 1150 mg/L였으나 다양한 무기염 중에서 MgSO$_4$가 첨가된 배지에서는 약 2000 mg/L나 생산되었다. 따라서 기본 배지조성인 1%(v/v) glycerol, 1.5%(w/v) soybean flour, 0.1%(w/v) $KH_2PO_4$, 0.2%(v/v) soybean oil에 0.4%(w/v) MgSO$_4$를 첨가함으로써 clavulanic acid의 생산을 높일 수 있었다.Airlift 와 bubble column 및 교반식 생물반응기에서 회분식 배양을 했을 경우 clavulanic acid의 생산은 airlift 생물 반응기에서는 1100 ng/L, bubble column 생물 반응기에서는 1450 mg/L, 교반식 생물 반응기에서는 1500 mg/L가 생산되어, 교반식 반응기가 적절하다고 생각되며 이는 배양액이 시간이 지날수록 점도가 높아지기 때문에 임펠러에 의한 교반 효과가 있는 교반식 반응기에서 물질전달이 가장 용이하기 때문인 것으로 보인다. 특히 교반식 생물 반응기에서 용존산소농도에 따라 교반속도를 조절하여 회분식 배양을 했을 경우가 수율이 0.18, 생산성은 250mg/Lㆍday로 가장 우수하게 나타났다.

Transgenic Nicotiana tabacum cells were cultivated for the production of murine granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) in both a stirred tank bioreactor and an airlift bioreactor with draft tube. Cell growth and mGM-CSF production in the airlift bioreactor were found to be better than those achieved in the stirred tank bioreactor. In the airlift bioreactor, 9.0g/L of cells and 2.2ng/mL of mGM-CSF were obtained (11.0g/L and 2.4ng/mL, respectively in shake flasks). Although the lag period was prolonged and mGM-CSF production was lowered by 33% in the stirred thank bioreactor as compared to the control culture, the maximum cell density was increased up to 12.0g/L due to better mixing by agitation at the higher cell density.

The influence of temperature and agitation on the growth of Escherichia coli expressing hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) in stirred tank bioreactor were investigated. The highest specific growth rate for E. coli$(0.844 h^{-1})$ was achieved at a temperature of $37^{\circ}C$ and an agitation speed of 250 rpm. The activation energy for the growth of the E. coli strain W3110lQ in the stirred tank bioreactor was estimated to be 11 kcal/mol. The highest protein yield was achieved at a temperature of $44^{\circ}C$ and an agitation speed of 250 rpm. The relative protein concentration at $44^{\circ}C$ is 30 and 6% higher compared to that at 30 and $37^{\circ}C$, respectively.

This paper proposes a nonlinear adaptive controller based on back-stepping method for tracking reference substrate concentration by manipulating dilution rate in a continuous baker's yeast cultivating process in stirred tank bioreactor. Control law is obtained from Lyapunov control function to ensure asymptotical stability of the system. The Haldane model for the specific growth rate depending on only substrate concentration is used in this paper. Due to the uncertainty of specific growth rate, it has been modified as a function including the unknown parameter with known bounded values. The substrate concentration in the bioreactor and feed line are measured. The deviation from the reference is observed when the external disturbance such as the change of the feed is introduced to the system. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is shown through simulation results in continuous system.

This paper proposed a modified observer based on Busawon's high gain observer using an appropriate time depended function, which can be chosen to make each estimated state converge faster to its real value. The stability of the modified observer is proved by using Lyapunov function. The modified nonlinear observer is applied to estimate the states in stirred tank bioreactor: out-put substrate concentration, output biomass concentration and the specific growth rate of the process. The convergences of the modified observer and Busawon's observer are compared trough simulation results. As the results, the modified observer converges faster to its real value than the well-known Busawon's observer.

Studies were made to investigate effects of the scale-up of stirred tank bioreactors on cell growth and alkaloids production for suspension cultures of Eschscholtzia californica. In the 1.5 L STR, cell lysis was observed at 110 rpm or higher agitation speed. The agitation speed of 30 L STR was 43.7 rpm to maintain the same shear stress developed in 1.5 L STR of 100 rpm. As a result of scale-up from 1.5 L to 30 L STR, the specific growth rate was decreased from 0.12 to 0.07 day-1. The alkaloids productivity was also decreased from 0.24 to 0.14 mg/L-day. Changes of mixing performance and oxygen transfer were studied to explain the decrease of cell growth and alkaloids production. Decreased oxygen transfer rate coefficient(KLa) and increased mixing time by the scale-up was observed at various aeration rates.

In this study, the treatment ability of the wastewater containing perchlorate by non-salt tolerant perchlorate reducing bacterial consortium (N-PRBC) was evaluated in a continuous stirred tank bioreactor (CSTR). To obtain the optimal operating condition the bioreactor was operated with the different wastewater empty bed retention time (EBRT). The treatment performance in the bioreactor could be maintained at 100 $mg-ClO_4{^-}L^{-1}$ up to a EBRT of 3 h, and the removal capacity in the CSTR was about 3.3 times higher than that in a batch operation. With a decrease from 9 h to 2 h in a EBRT, the volumetric perchlorate reduction rate was increased from 11.1 $mg-ClO_4{^-}L^{-1}h^{-1}$ to 50.0 $mg-ClO_4{^-}L^{-1}h^{-1}$, and the specific perchlorate reduction rates were increased from 3.01 $mg-ClO_4{^-}g-DCW^{-1}h^{-1}$. In conclusion, the treatment capacities in a CSTR were much better than those obtained in a batch operation.
