Abstract

The kinetics of C. tropicalis growth were investigated with pure n‐hexadecane as dispersed phase substrate. Two distinct growth phases were found: In the first phase, exponential growth was independent of stirrer speed. The onset of the second phase, one of linear growth, was determined by stirrer speed. By the use of two different fermenter types, it was shown that the drop size of the dispersed phase was not primarily responsible for the observed kinetics. It was considered that the formation of biological flocs determined the observed growth pattern. This was substantiated by the results of continuous cultures in the different fermenter types, with various substrate concentrations.

## Abstract This work concerns mathematical modeling of the rate of microbial growth on inhibitory levels of nutrients as affected by pH, concentration of the nutrients, temperature, cultivation method, and method of data analysis. __Candida utilis__ (ATCC 9226) was grown with sodium acetate as gro
