Continuous culture of Candida utilis: influence of medium nitrogen concentration

When Candida utilis was grown in continuous culture, decreasing the concentration of N in the medium affected cell composition, biomass yield, biomass productivity, maximal growth rate and cell morphology. When the dilution rate was low (0.1 h(-1)), reducing N from 1100 to 100 mg/l led to a 40% decr...

Zusammenfassung:	When Candida utilis was grown in continuous culture, decreasing the concentration of N in the medium affected cell composition, biomass yield, biomass productivity, maximal growth rate and cell morphology. When the dilution rate was low (0.1 h(-1)), reducing N from 1100 to 100 mg/l led to a 40% decrease in RNA content of the cells. Nitrogen-limited growth, which occurred when N
