The scale-up ofrifamycin B fermentation withA, mediterranei XC 9-25 from a shaking flask to a 15 L fermentor was realized by controlling the dissolved oxygen to above 25% of saturation in the fermentation process, and the potency of rifamycin B fermentation in the 15 L fermentor reached 10 g/L after 6-day batch fermentation. By continuously feeding glucose and ammonia in the fermentation process, the potency of rifamycin B fermentaion in the 15 L fermentor reached 18.67 g/L, which was 86.65% higher than that of batch fermentation. Based on the scale-up principle of constantly aerated agitation power per unit volume, the scale-up of rifamycin B fed-batch fermentation with continuous feed from a 15 L fermentor to a 7 m^3 fermentor and further to a 60 m^3 fermentor was realized successfully. The potency of rifamycin B fermentation in the 7 m^3 fermentor and in the 60 m^3 fermentor reached 17.25 g/L and 19.11 g/L, respectively.展开更多
