Studies on the rheology and oxygen mass transfer in the clavulanic acid production by Streptomyces clavuligerus

In the present work rheological characteristics and volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) were investigated during batch cultivations of Streptomyces clavuligerus NRRL 3585 for production of clavulanic acid. The experimental rheological data could be adequately described in terms of the power...
