Published in 2024 at "Biotechnology and Bioengineering"

DOI: 10.1002/bit.28782

Abstract: While traveling through different zones in large‐scale bioreactors, microbes are most likely subjected to fluctuating dissolved oxygen (DO) conditions at the timescales of global circulation time. In this study, to mimic industrial‐scale spatial DO gradients,… read more here.
