Impact of Agitation Power Input on Aspergillus oryzae Metabolism: Application of Multi‐Omics on an Industrial Enzyme Fermentation

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agitation power input substantially impacts the oxygen transfer rate in aerobic fermentation processes. Furthermore, in a carbon‐limited process where the substrate feed rate is controlled by the concentration of dissolved oxygen, the power input will consequently govern the feed rate.
