Fermentation Reactors - Medical Science

Q1:

The production of an amylase from starch by Aspergillus niger is often performed in a fed batch fermenter. This is due to the reason that

A fed-batch reactor can be used to minimize starch concentrations and prevent a. niger from fermenting

B fed-batch reactor can be used to minimize starch concentrations and thus reduce the viscosity of the medium

C continuous reactor can be used to minimize starch concentrations and their inhibitory effects

D all of the above

ANS:B - fed-batch reactor can be used to minimize starch concentrations and thus reduce the viscosity of the medium
