摘要: A cheap medium, composed of skimmed milk powder, yeast extract, and glucose, for mass cultivation the protozoon Tetrahymena thermophila has been developed. Cell concentrations 5 x 106 cells/ml unprecedented short generation times only 1.4 h were determined in batch cultures. During exponential phase growth, daughter cells initiated a new cell division even before previous had completed, resulting formation chains. Addition glucose extended stationary phase. Using bench-top fermentor supplied with digital control unit utilization nutrient components culture was monitored. Milk protein consumed completely, but lactose partly.
