Abstract

Fed-batch cultivation is a well-known type of submerged fermentation that is frequently used in manufacture of recombinant proteins and various kinds of enzymes, owing to its ability to produce products with high concentrations and high efficiency. In fed-batch culture, several issues must be considered; most of them are also presented in batch culture. However, feed flow rate calculation only corresponds to fed-batch fermentation and its value has a significant impact on productivity, efficiency, final concentration of product, formation of by-products, and viscosity of the culture. From this background, the present review article is an effort to gather the information on feeding strategies for fed-batch cultivation of Escherichia coli, which is a well-known microorganism in the production of recombinant proteins and industrial enzymes, especially for therapeutic applications. Moreover, this review is an aid to comprehend and compare the fundamental concept of different feeding strategies and their advantages and drawbacks.
