Chapter 10, Problem 10.20P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Determine the oxygen use rate.

Concept introduction:

The ideal gas law is,

$PV=nRT$

Where, P = Pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = gas constant and T = temperature

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The values of $q_{O_2}$ should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The relationship between cell concentration and oxygen use rate consumption is,

$X{q}_{o_2}=OUR$

$q_{O_2}$ = specific rate of oxygen consumption.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The concentration of cells should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The relationship between cell concentration and oxygen use rate consumption is,

$X{q}_{o_2}=OUR$

$q_{O_2}$ = specific rate of oxygen consumption.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

An expression for t(X) and the cell doubling time should be determined.

Concept introduction:

The relationship between cell concentration and oxygen use rate consumption is,

$X{q}_{o_2}=OUR$

$q_{O_2}$ = specific rate of oxygen consumption.
