Vedclass · Answer

(B) In 'fed-batch' fermentation,the substrate (such as sugars) is added periodically or continuously to the bioreactor. This is done to maintain the concentration of the substrate at an optimal level,which prevents the inhibition of microbial growth or product formation due to high substrate concentrations. This technique is commonly employed in the industrial production of secondary metabolites,such as antibiotics,to maximize yield.
