Figure 4. Repeated batch fermentation (RB1) of citric acid with Candida oleophila at 80% air saturation and increased phosphate concentration.
(a) Glucose, citric acid and biomass as a function of fermentation time.
(b) Formation rate of the generic product (Rj), specific citric acid productivity (mp), glucose consumption rate (Rs) and specific glucose consumption rate (rs); (2.1 g/l KH2PO4, 30ºC and pH 5).
