Dynamic model development for a continuous culture of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>

Abstract

The problem of dynamically modeling a chemostat is addressed. Using the results of continuous culture experiments for the growth of a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on a glucose-limited medium, a general approach to developing dynamic models is discussed. The approach to develop and verify the model involves three different types of experiments: steady-state, dynamic step response, and feedback identification.
