Using redox potential to detect microbial activities during clavulanic acid biosynthesis in Streptomyces clavuligerus
Abstract
Production of clavulanic acid (CA) by Streptomyces clavuligerus in a shake-flask culture increased from 92 to 180 mg l(-1) with an increased O2 transfer efficiency (0.039 --> 0.058 s(-1)), which maintained the redox potential values above -250 mV. Compared with traditional measures, such as dissolved O2 concentration and respiratory activity, the redox potential can easily be determined and correlates closely with CA production. It can therefore be used to monitor microbial activities during biosyntheses of secondary metabolites.

Lin et al. (2005) found that a flask with higher baffle height had a slight increase in clavulanic acid production (180 mg/L) compared to a normal Erlenmeyer flask (90 mg/L).
“The results showed that the flask with a higher baffle height had a slight increase in the production of clavulanic acid (180 mg/L), as compared to a normal Erlenmeyer flask (90 mg/L).”

“In fact, the effect of aeration on the production of clavulanic acid can be tested with a direct experiment involving the use of the Erlenmeyer flask with different baffle heights (Lin et al., 2005).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
