Respiration of Penicillium chrysogenum in Penicillin Fermentations [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1952 Spore-inoculated penicillin fermentations using Penicillium chrysogenum W 48–701 were carried out in two different types of equipment: stirred and aerated laboratory fermentors, or shaken flasks. The respiration of the mycelium was measured in Warburg manometers. The maximum oxygen demand in the fermentations occurred at approximately 40 hr.
