Continuous Culture Medium Continually Constant Microorganisms Inoculated Sterile

Continuous culture involves the continuous addition of nutrient medium and removal of culture broth to maintain constant exponential growth.

A cultura contínua envolve a adição contínua de meio nutritivo e a remoção contínua de caldo de cultura para manter um crescimento exponencial constante.

Front
  • continuous culture;
Back
  • continuous culture;
  • microorganisms inoculated into sterile nutrient medium and grow
  • medium added continually to culture once at expo point of growth
  • culture broth continually removed (medium, waste products, microorganism and product) to keep volume constant
Therefore with continuous culture, continuous balanced levels of nutrients, pH and metabolic products kept constant
