Efficient screening of process variables in Penicillium janthinellum fermentations

Several potentially important process variables involved in xylanase production by Penicillium janthinellum in large lab-scale fermentors were efficiently screened by employing a Plackett-Burman statistical design. Results illustrate the design's general applicability to experimentation with fe...

Description
Summary:Several potentially important process variables involved in xylanase production by Penicillium janthinellum in large lab-scale fermentors were efficiently screened by employing a Plackett-Burman statistical design. Results illustrate the design's general applicability to experimentation with fermentation processes.
