- The biomass yields based on oxygen, Y
O2, are defined as amount of biomass (grams of dry cell weight (DCW)) produced per mol of molecular oxygen (O2) consumed by cells (g DCW / mol O2). The biomass yields based on carbon substrate, Y
s, are defined as amount of biomass (grams of DCW) produced per gram of glucose fed (g DCW / g Gluc). The product yields based on carbon substrate, Y
p, are defined as amount of secreted product (milligrams of protein Pr-1) per mol of glucose fed (mg Pr-1 / mol Gluc). The specific rate of therapeutic protein production, q
p, is expressed as milligrams of product Pr-1 per gram of glucose fed and per hour of elapsed fermentation time (mg Pr-1 / g Gluc/hr). The average and one standard deviation of every estimated response indicated above come from 7 batches at 10,000Â L scale, or from 9 batches at 10Â L scale. UoM: unit of measurement.
