Optimizing scale-up fermentation processes
Abstract
There are many aims associated with the optimization of fermentation processes. Optimization is expected to increase the yield of the final product but the process must be compliant with good manufacturing practices, the available equipment and the expected final scale of operation. Dealing with genetically modified microorganisms that overproduce recombinant protein has the advantage that the vast majority of the processes use only three different species, namely Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris. Standard processes for each organism are described in textbooks and serve as a basis for the development of a tailored process. This article outlines the general philosophy that we have devised to ensure an efficient approach of scaling up fermentation processes for biopharmaceutical purposes, in a multidisciplinary environment.

“Given that the fed-batch fermentation system entails a scale-up process, researchers would expect a higher yield of end-products (Modak et al., 1986; Thiry and Cingolani, 2002; Hewitt and Nienow, 2007).”

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.
