PICHIA FERMENTATION TECHNIQUES

This workshop is aimed specifically at fermentation strategies for Pichia pastoris and Pichia methanolica. Various fed-batch fermentation strategies are investigated including controlled methanol feeding and other common strategies required to optimize protein production. On-line methanol monitoring and control is introduced and implemented.

The workshop includes hands-on experience in fermentator design, set-up and inoculation, sampling techniques, harvesting strategies and monitoring control of Pichia fermentation systems. This workshop stresses the practical aspects of fermentation principles required in research and pilot scale Pichia fermentations.
