Scaling up for the industrial production of rifamycin B; optimization of the process conditions in bench-scale fermentor

Optimization of fermentation process conditions using a gene amplified variant of Amycolatopsis mediterranei (NCH) was carried out. The use of aeration level 1.5 vvm increased the yield by 16.6% (from 13.81 to 16.1 g/l) upon controlling the temperature at 28 °C. Adjustment of the aeration level at 1...
