CONCISE NOTES
Generate 6 test questions on topic industrial microbiology for academic level
bachelor degree based on the learning outcome and my notes.
Learning outcome:
Point out knowledge of the essential facts, concepts, principles, and theories relating
to the production processes in industrial biotechnology
My notes:
Fermentation Process (ancient biotech)
1. Microorganisms
a. can grow and multiply rapidly
b. process is quick
c. able to produce pure culture
d. able to grow in inexpensive culture medium
e. genetically stable
f. should not be pathogenic(harmful) to humans or economically important
animal or plants
g. amenable to genetic manipulations
h. can be stored for years without any side effects on their
productivity/desired characteristics
2. Fermentation medium
Industrial Microbiology 1
, a. can be solid or liquid
b. cost-effective
c. waste products from industry
3. Fermentation
a. growth of large quantities of cells under aerobic or anaerobic conditions,
within a vessel
b. process is carried out under a controlled condition
4. Fermenter
a. microbes are cultivated under controlled conditions in a fermenter
b. various sizes (5-50000L)
Products of Industrial Microbiology
1. Biomass
a. process: cell→ cell division→ many cells
2. Bioconversion/biotransformation
a. process: substrate → addition of enzyme and cell → product
3. Metabolite product
a. categories:
i. enzymes → glucose isomerase
ii. antibiotics → penicilin
iii. chemicals → citric acid
iv. food additives → amino acids
4. Food and beverages
a. Wine, beer → saccharomyses cerevisiae (brewer yeast)
b. Cheese → rennin/chymosin/ acid precipitate casein (coagulation of milk)
c. Yogurt → lactobacili and bifidobacterial
d. Vinegar → acetobacter and gluconobacter
e. Soy sauce → aspergillus oryzae
