Lehrveranstaltung: Fermentation Technology, Lecture with Exercise (1502-431)

Personen:

• Prof. Dr. Lutz Fischer (verantwortlich)
• Dr. Sabine Lutz-Wahl (begleitend)
• Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Wolfgang Claaßen (begleitend)

Lehrform:

Vorlesung mit Praktikum

SWS:

4

Inhalt:

In interactive lessons the students will learn the preparation and composition of differnet culture media, the assembly of the bioreactor and sterile sampling during cultivation. Also the analysing of samples will be understood, planned, performed and evaluated.
The theoretical background for planning, performing and analysing batch-cultivations will be discussed and exercised in the practical course.
The students will be able to cultivate bacteria and yeasts in shaking flask and bioreactor (1 L; 30 L scale). Important biotechnological parameters such as oxygen transfer (Kla), biomass yields, product yields, enzyme activites and C-source consumption will be discussed and evaluated. Also, the students will be able to cultivate microorganisms using the solid-state principle.
