Batch and semi-batch (fed- batch ) fermentation of E.coli experiment was done. 0.5 g / L, 1 g / L and 2 g / L glucose was added to the batch fermentation medium. After the Semi-Batch fermentation medium was incubated for 3 hours, glucose was added. Why was glucose added to the fed batch fermentation medium 3 hours later?

A purified protein sample was used in a reaction, resulting in an activity of 696.7 nmol min-1. The reaction volume was 145.0 µL and the final volume before loading the plate was 1,050 µL. The total reaction time was 4.25 min. The amount of protein used in the reaction was 4.270 µg. Calculate the specific activity of the sample (in nmol min-1 µg-1).
A student performed an invertase activity assay on samples from a purification. All reactions occurred in a reaction volume of 100 µL and lasted 3.1 minutes. For each reaction, 5.00 µL enzyme was mixed with 50.0 mM sucrose in 10.0 mM acetate pH 4.8. Then 400 µL of DNS was added, the samples were heated to 90 °C for 5 minutes, and 500 µL of 50.0 mM acetate pH 4.8 was added before loading a 96 well plate in triplicate. Samples were measured at 540 nm using a path length of 0.680 cm. The fraction with the highest activity had A540 of 0.904. The standard of 14.00 mM hydrolyzed sucrose had A540 of 1.047 (the concentration given is of the 100 µL sample). The no-enzyme control had A540 of 0.174. Calculate the activity of the fraction (in nmol min-1).
Calculate the amount of GFP in grams produced in the 25-L fermentation used to generate cells for your homogenization lab. To do this problem, recall that for the homogenization step, E. coli cell paste was suspended in Tris buffer, the resulting cell suspension was homogenized. For this calculation, assume that the concentration of GFP in the clarified lysate is 2.0 mg GFP/mL solution. The concentration of cells in the 25-L fermentation was 8% by volume.
Under certain conditions, E. coli cells grow from a concentration of 0.1 to 0.5 kg/m 3 in 1 hour. a) Assuming that growth is exponential in this period, what is the specific growth rate of these cells (per hour)? For the above data (growth of E. coli cells), how many hours would it take to grow cells from 0.1 to 1.0 kg/m3? Assume exponential growth during this period.
Given this, if you used 6g of vitamin Z powder to make 20 ml of solution, what is the % concentration of this solution? (I gave the image since I don't know if that info is needed to solve this question.)It also gives a follow-up, if you can help here too: You work in a lab as a summer student. One of your tasks is to make sure that there is enough cell culture medium containing antibiotics to grow bacteria. One day you realize that there is only 5 ml of 10% Antibiotic stock solution in the freezer. You decide to use it all to prepare the working culture medium with 0.01% antibiotic. In the lab there is plenty of growth medium without antibiotics. (Note: dilution in medium is like dilution in water). You remember the equation to make dilutions of stock solutions. You usually use this formula to calculate the required volume of a stock solution, but you realize it can apply here as well, even though the unknown is the final volume. So, you make that dilution. Given that each bacterial…

An enzymatic reaction was carried out in a batch-operated reactor until exhaustion of the substrate. The formation of the product was monitored over time, obtaining the results shown in Table 1. Answer: a) Knowing that the initial substrate concentration was 0.2 M and that the stoichiometry reaction is: 1S –> 2P, estimate the substrate concentration over time from the data from [P] data in Table 1; b) Determine the parameters of the Michaelis-Menten equation, Vmax and Km, by fitting direct from the hyperbola function; c) Determine the parameters Vmáx and Km, by the linearized equation;
Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) is a coenzyme for the enzyme ornithine aminotransferase. The enzyme was purified from cells grow in PLP = deficient media as well as from cells grown in media that contained pyridoxal phosphate. The stability of the two different enzyme preparations was then measured by incubating the enzyme at 37°C for different lengths of time and then assaying for the amount of enzyme activity remaining. The following results were obtained. (a) Why does the amount of active enzyme decrease with the time of incubation? (b) Why does the amount of enzyme from the PLP deficient cells decline more rapidly?
Inoculate 250-µL overnight cell culture into 50 ml LB medium (in a 250 ml flask). Shake vigorously at 37 °C to OD600~0.5-0.6 (usually it takes about 2-3 hours). Why should we use a larger flask during culture at this step? Why do we need to wait till this OD range is achieved?

A bacterial culture is grown using either octadecane (C18H38) or pentachlorophenol (C6HCl5O) as the sole source of carbon and energy. The cell yield value is determined by dry weight analysis to be 1.49 for octadecane and 0.05 for pentachlorophenol. Using either octadecane or pentachlorophenol, please describe the steps taken (and the final result) showing what percentage of the substrate carbon will be found as cell mass and as CO2? Please show all calculations.
