Question
Chapter 11.8, Problem 5RIA
Summary Introduction
The fermentation process yields less ATP when compared to the aerobic respiration. Since, the fermentation process lacks electron transport chain to carry the terminal electron to generate proton motive force. The fermentation is considered to be a

Is biocatalyst pre-treatment required for biohydrogen production? If yes, then explain any two pre-treatment methods employed; else, justify with appropriate reasons.
For the production of a secondary metabolic by Streptomyces coelicolor, a fed batch was performed. At the end of the single batch phase, the following conditions were reached in the reactor: V=10000L, cell concentration X=10g/L and product concentration P=0.1g/L. The feeding was then started with constant flow F= 200L/h, for 100h. Knowing that the substrate concentration in the feeding medium was SF= 80g/L and in the fermentation medium it was practically null, calculate:
a) The final concentration of cells and productb) If the reactor were fed with a constant dilution rate (D), what should be the value of D used to reach the same cell concentration obtained in the situation with constant flow?μp= 0.01 g of product/ (g of cells.h)Y x/s = 0.15g cells/g of substrate
Pls help ASAP.

Ser.: Mater. Sci. Eng. 833 012014 STATE THE HYPOTHESIS (In if-then format): Plants, when extracted, can produce dyes and the extracts have been used for different purposes such as the textile or food industry [1]. One potential plant that can be used as a natural dye is dragon fruit (Hylocereus cacti) or by another name Pitaya. Wybraniec and coworkers reported that dragon fruit has a potential as a source to produce red pigment and it's called betalains [2]. Betalain is a water-soluble pigment that gives color to flowers and fruits. Betalain pigments are divided into two groups, namely betacyanin which produces purplish red and betaxanthin which produce yellow-orange colors [2, 3]. In the dragon fruit peel, it is also containing pigments which are usually only discarded as food waste and have not been used optimally. This is very unfortunate because the fruit of the dragon fruit itself has…arrow_forwardWhere do each of these 5 main themes occur in the chymotrypsin mechanism? 1) substrate specificity 2) induced fit 3) covalent catalysis 4) acid/base catalysis 5) transition state stabilizationarrow_forward
