Optimal process design space to ensure maximum viability and productivity in Penicillium chrysogenum pellets during fed-batch cultivations through morphological and physiological control

Abstract Background Biomass growth of Pencillium chrysogenum is characterised by a distinct pellet morphology consisting of compact hyphal agglomerates. Fungal pellets are advantageous in industrial process control due to rheological advantages but lead to biomass degradation due to diffusional limi...
