Production of Beijerinckia indica HS-2001 in Fed-batch and continuous culture.

As a result of broth substitutions when each culture-mediums were difference, whole culture-medium was found to be best feeding solution for production of PS-7 by B. indica. Maximal production of PS-7 was 1$10.0\;g/{\ell}$ and its conversion rate from 2% (w/v) glucose to PS-7 was 50%. After 48 hr, 50%(v/v) medium of working volume began to substitute in 7L jar fermenter. Production of PS-7 increased after 48hr, recovered productivity of PS-7. Following this preliminary culture, the resultant culture was subjected to continuous flow conditions controlled that the dilution rate were $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.04\;h^{-1}$. Production of PS-7 increased at dilution rate $0.0100\;h^{-1}$ whereas productivity of PS-7 decreased gradually in dilution rate $0.0200\;{\sim}\;0.0400\;h^{-1}$. Maximal production of PS-7 was $10.0\;g/{\ell}$ in continuous culture.
