Pass years questions. Try it yourself. 1. The diagram below shows a flow sheet for the production and purification of recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) using expanded-bed adsorption (EBA). In this process, glycerol and methanol are provided as carbon source while ammonia as nitrogen source to promote the growth for P. pastoris. The cells are used as expression host to produce IHSA. In the first medium tank (P-1), 4.27 tons of glycerol and 13 m3 of water are mixed; in the second tank (P-2), 7.4 tons of methanol and 9.4 m of water. Other media components such as salts, vitamins and trace elements are also added to these tanks. A 20% ammonium solution containing 500kg of ammonia is fed in during the fermentation in the bioreactor (P-3). For safety reason, the US made-bioreactor P-3 can only withstand maximum weight 97,885 1b. It is also know that the ratio of salts and vitamins mixture for vessel P-1 is double than P-2.
