Abstract
Foam control is an important part of every fermentation technology. Chemical anti-foam agents (AFA) are surface active substances, which decrease the surface elasticity of liquids and prevent metastable foam formation. Most AFA must be mixed or dissolved in a suitable carrier substance if their antifoaming properties are to be fully utilized. The carrier seems to act as a reservoir from which the AFA is liberated.
