Ia. Arnott et Lr. Weatherley, THE STABILITY OF PENICILLIN-G DURING RECOVERY BY ELECTRICALLY ENHANCED EXTRACTION, Process biochemistry, 30(5), 1995, pp. 447-455
The effect of high-voltage electric Fields on the degradation of penic
illin G has been studied in the context of the electrostatically enhan
ced solvent extraction of penicillin from whole broths. Eight paramete
rs (voltage, penicillin G concentration, pH, presence of whole broth m
aterial, electrical polarity, solvent exposure, joule heating and resi
dence time) were studied.
