A kinetic model for product formation of microbial and mammalian cells

Growth of microbial and mammalian cells can be classified into substrate‐limited and substrate‐sufficient growth according to the relative availability of the substrate (carbon and energy source) and other nutrients. It has been observed for a number of microbial and mammalian cells that the consumption rate of substrate and energy (ATP) is generally higher under substratesufficient conditions than under substrate limitation. Accordingly, the product formation under substrate excess often exhibits different patterns from those under substrate limitation. The extent of increase or decrease in product formation may depend not only on the nature of limitation and cell growth rate but also on the residual substrate concentration in a relatively wide range. The product formation kinetic models existing in literature cannot describe these effects. In this study, the Luedeking–Piret kinetic is extended to include a term describing the effect of residual substrate concentration. The extended model has a similar structure to the kinetic model for substrate and energy consumption rate recently proposed by Zeng and Deckwer. The applicability of the extended model is demonstrated with three microbial cultures for the production of primary metabolites and three hybridoma cell cultures for the production of ammonia and lactic acid over a wide range of substrate concentration. The model describes the product formation in all these cultures satisfactorily. Using this model, the range of residual substrate concentration, in which the product formation is affected, can be quantitatively assessed. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
