Abstract
Glucose fermentation by Xanthomonas campestris to xanthan was investig ated in a stirred tank fermenter for the effect of agitation on cell g rowth and product synthesis. In the range investigated for speed betwe en 300 to 500 rpm, these factors registered a rise with increasing deg rees of turbulence, the experiments being carried out over a span of t wo days.
