Figures 4.12 and 4.13 show that <strong>by</strong> ushg the selected saain the enzyme concentration<br />

doubled in both STR and ALR <strong>bioreactor</strong>s even though the total œIi concentrations in the<br />

<strong>bioreactor</strong> were a little lower than that ushg the onguial saain. This is because after the<br />

double pressure selection. the selected strain contained a high proportion <strong>of</strong> plasmid-<br />

bearing ab. These cells conrained both the giucoamylase and LEU2 genes and could<br />

encode glucoamyiase effectively. It is interesthg to note that the decay <strong>of</strong> the enzyme<br />

concentration in the reactor followed an exponential p am and the fîrst-order decay rate<br />

constant for selecwl strain was slightly maller (Figures 4.12 and 4.13). This suggests<br />

that the plasmid stability was enhanced after the recombinant cells experienced double<br />

selection pressure. Since the growth rare is very slow in the dooble seleaion medium. it is<br />

not practical to use the double selection medium in industrial fermentation. But double<br />

selection could be an effective way to men and maintain recombinant ceik during the<br />

inoculurn preparation stage. In this research, screening under double selection pressure<br />

was performed every three months in order to keep the engineered genetic properties <strong>of</strong><br />

the present recombinant yeast Then the selected arain was maintained in the double<br />

selection medium.
