This is called competitive inhibition, because the inhibitor “competes” with the substrate for the enzyme.

Mechanical seals are devices that are used to provide a seal at the point of entry or exit of a rotating shaft. Typically it is used to prevent the leakage of one high pressure fluid into a lower pressure fluid.

See lessA mixed fermentation is one, which produces
A type of fermentation called the mixed acid fermentation results in the formation of formic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, ethanol, CO2 and H2 in a buffered medium. The combination of acids in the mixed acid fermentation usually lowers the pH of the culture below 4.2.

The Monod equation for the specific growth rate, Eq. (12.91), is analogous mathematically to the Michaelis–Menten expression for enzyme kinetics. In principle, therefore, the techniques described in Section 12.4 for determining vmax and Km for enzyme reaction can be applied for evaluation of μmax anRead more

Easy explanation: This is a brief transient period during which cells start growing slowly. In fact, acceleration phase connects the lag phase and log phase.

See lessThe function of the disengagement zone in an airlift fermenter is to
The disengagement zone can add volume to the reactor, reducing the foaming to minimize recirculation of bubbles through the down-comer. The sudden widening at the top of the reactor slows the bubble velocity and thus disengages the bubbles from the liquid flow.
