In a batch culture, the specific rate of substrate utilization is 0.25 g (g cell mass)–1 h–1 and specific rate of product formation is 0.215 g (g cell mass)–1 h–1. Calculate the yield of product from the substrate (Yp/s). ______
-
- 0.81 to 0.91
- 0.27 to 0.31
- 81 to 91
- 0.91 to 0.98
Correct Option: A
Given, for a batch culture
Specific rate of substrate utilization = 0.25 g/g/h
Specific rate of product formation = 0.215 g/g/h
Yield of product (YP/S) = 0.215/.25 = 0.86
