Microorganisms are routinely used in the food and animal feed industries for processes such as alcohol fermentation, the acidification of dairy products or ensilage. Besides, bacteria and fungi are gaining popularity in the production of food additives such as vitamins, antioxidants or bioactive peptides.

The scale-up of fermentation processes is critical to the success of industrial fermentation for the production of biopolymers or food supplements. To determine suitable parameters and set points, critical scalability-related engineering parameters need to be considered. Download our article that was published in the Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News to find out more about scalability.
