Introducing more pressure to a bioreactor facilitates an increase in the Oxygen Transfer Rate (OTR), which in turn improves gas solubility in the fermentation broth. More bioprocess scientists are ...

Although the utilization of living organisms in industry is increasingly common, effectively controlling biotechnological processes remains a significant challenge. Key hurdles include contamination ...

While photosynthesis transforms sunlight energy into sugar, aerobic and anaerobic respiration (fermentation) catabolizes sugars to fuel cellular activities. These processes take place within one cell ...

Humans have used fermentation for thousands of years. Chemical residues from pottery at Jiahu, in central China, date a fermented beverage of rice, honey, and fruit to roughly 9,000 years ago, and ...
