Question 1

In batch fermentation, a lag phase can be minimized by:

using a highly active inoculum

adding less biomass in the inoculum

adding less substrate to the medium

changing the carbon source between the inoculum and the medium

Question 2

True

False

Question 3

If the Thiele modulus is very small, the substrate does not reach the core of a porous catalyst particle.

True

False

Question 4

The growth yield is constant during batch growth

True

False

Question 5

For uncompetitive enzyme inhibition:

the apparent Km increases (compared to the uninhibited enzyme)

the apparent Vmax increases (compared to the uninhibited enzyme)

the apparent Km decreases (compared to the uninhibited enzyme)

the apparent Vmax decreases (compared to the uninhibited enzyme)
