Effect of substrate concentration on production of sorbitol
This research was conducted to study the effect of substrate concentration in production of sorbitol in fermentation process by Candida tropicalis (IFO 0618) that was purchased from America type Culture Collection (ATCC). The growth of the bacteria can be calculated using Monod Equation. Monod equat...
