Abstract
Optimum specific growth rate for the production of recombinant bovine somatotropin (bST) was investigated in fed-batch E. coli fermentation with a controlled specific growth rate. Maximum specific bST concentra tion based on cell mass decreases linearly with the controlled specifi c growth rate. Productivity of bST is expressed by a quadratic equatio n as a function of the specific growth rate and has a maximum value at mu = 0.23 hr(-1).
