## Abstract __Penicillium chrysogenum__ was immobilized in polyacrylamide gel prepared from 5% acrylamide monomers (85% acrylamide and 15% __N__,__N__β²βmethylene bisacrylamide). Penicillin produced from glucose by the immobilized mycelium was 17% of that produced by washed mycelium. However, the ac
The influence of the agitation conditions on the growth, morphology, vacuolation, and productivity of Penicillium chrysogenum has been examined in 6 L fedbatch fermentations. A standard Rushton turbine, a fourbladed paddle, and a six-bladed pitched blade impeller were compared. Power inputs per unit
Oligosaccharide fragments were prepared by partial acid hydrolysis of sodium alginate and consisted of oligomannuronate (OM) and oligoguluronate (OG) blocks. Effects of the OM and OG blocks on penicillin G production by P. chrysogenum were investigated. The oligosaccharides were found to cause signi
In addition to acting as an oxygen transfer enhancer, n-hexadecane plays an important role in dominating the mycelial morphology of Penicillium chrysogenum in a submerged penicillin fermentation. The cell morphology is related to the timing of adding nhexadecane to the culture, n-Hexadecane also ha
A previously developed immobilization technique involving latex coatings on solid particulate supports was investigated further for penicillin G production by Penicillium chrysogenum. Several modifications were found to decrease the germination lag time, including a higher spore concentration, a thi
