Media For Industrial Fermentation Impact Factor

 Microbes used for fermentation process grow on or in growth medium which satisfies the nutritional needs of microbes. Complete analysis is required to be done to determine the foremost favourable medium for the expansion of the microbe used for fermentation. Formulating medium at lab scale are often done by adding main ingredients like water, carbon source, nitrogen source, minerals and other supplements in pure form and in required quantities is extremely easy which supports the expansion of the microbe whereas, an equivalent might not support the satisfactory growth of an equivalent organism at industrial level. Following criteria got to be satisfied for the fabric to be treated as medium at industrial level. • It should be consistently available throughout the year. • It should be cheap. Generally carbohydrates are used as “carbon sources” for fermentations at lab level. On contrary, some sensitive fermentation makes use of glucose, sucrose and other carbohydrates in their pure form which ensures the purity and quality of the ultimate product. Sometimes starch are going to be added to the medium for the precise production of amylases. At lab level, peptone or tryptone or beef extract which may be a partially digested hydrolysate, which is utilised in synthesis of proteins, components of nucleic acids and other essential cellular components. But at industrial level it's supplemented with soy meal or ammonia or nitrate salts to supplement the nitrogen source.
